| I’m still takin the train and
|
| My metro card’s empty
|
| The windows of the stores when I walk by tempt me
|
| I was on MTV but I don’t have a Bently
|
| F*** it in my pockets I barely gotta twenty
|
| Dollar bill but I go to shows
|
| And make you holla still
|
| I gotta pay my bills and it’s not like Prada will
|
| I go to the check cashing spot
|
| Will I always be a have not
|
| Never gonna live in no lavish spot
|
| Always gonna live at home with mom and pop
|
| Shop at Old Navy and Payless
|
| I’m just tryna be honest that why I say this
|
| Hopefully radio plays this I doubt it though
|
| Yo pass that Olde English
|
| Yeah I be rockin the discotech
|
| Every single night no self respect
|
| Sometimes I feel like I party way too much
|
| Premieres openings and shows and such but
|
| What else is a girl to do
|
| Go home by myself at 2
|
| In the AM I’m sayin I’m not playin
|
| I’m doin the same stupid shit and it’s day in day out
|
| I know that there’s gotta be a way out
|
| But I keep drinking and I just stay out
|
| At the hot spots with superstars and the hardrocks
|
| I wish that I could disappear to the boondocks
|
| Why not, maybe I’ll hire me a pilot
|
| To take me away to the shade and I’ll stay
|
| Get a slice at Ray’s like we did when we was kids
|
| Something’s gotta give real soon but it’s not this
|
| On the real I be hatin myself sometimes
|
| I know you do too but it’s okay sometimes
|
| I’m tryin to escape the grind sometimes
|
| It ain’t gonna get better if I do some lines so
|
| Enough with the parties and bullshit
|
| I go to the parties and bullshit
|
| It never gets better when I do this shit
|
| So stressed I wanna get up and quit
|
| It’s like maybe tonight’s the night and
|
| Maybe if I socialize I’ll feel alright but those
|
| Never seem to be the best laid plans
|
| Never did I dream I’d go to foreign lands I just
|
| Wanna lay in creamy sands
|
| Doing nothin all day with my dreamy man maybe
|
| Buy that house across from the projects
|
| So I can stay trading gossip like stock tips
|
| It’s not at the after party
|
| It’s not in the hotel lobby
|
| It’s not in magazines
|
| And It’s not even in my dreams
|
| The things that I need
|
| Ain’t in the vip
|
| Dont know what it is
|
| It’s definitely not this |
