|
| I’ve been trying but I need to change my ways
|
| Half of the time, I don’t know where I’m at, I’ll be tripping and shit
|
| I’m not famous or unknown but this can get to you quick
|
| I’ll sip on a little alcohol and I’ll be dabbling on some drugs
|
| I’m not telling you what to do, but if you haven’t then trust
|
| Don’t do it, shit’ll get you fucked up
|
| Or have you feeling numb once and you be falling in love
|
| Aww man, you mean I don’t gotta feel no more?
|
| You mean I can live in my head, dreams won’t get killed no more?
|
| I can erase whatever happened and I don’t gotta deal no more?
|
| I mean you can, but then you’re back and shit ain’t real no more
|
| You gotta backtrack and shit, go back to where you left it all
|
| Thought you left it all, but nope, this shit will get you lost
|
| Now you’re right back but more depressed than when you left
|
| You gotta 'fess to the bullshit feelings of emptiness
|
| And now you’re tripping, everyone thinking that you’re okay
|
| But now you’re slipping, late nights you laying in your bed
|
| And you start thinking, how the fuck am I gonna matter?
|
| I wanna change but I need change, so I’m making my pockets fatter
|
| Cause the cash rules everything aroound
|
| I guess the cash rules everything around me
|
| I need to change my ways
|
| I been trying but I need to change my ways
|

|
| What are we even here for?
|
| My generation is lame, so you start like
|
| Dear Lord, please help me to get some change
|
| I need some cash, I need it fast, I need a job that I like
|
| Imma need someone on my bed that’ll make me feel it’s alright
|
| These negative thoughts in my head that be making me think twice
|
| About everything I’m doing when I’m just trying to do right
|
| Going up like elevators, cause Andre used to talk to me
|
| But he’s been gone lately, so I be looking for him constantly
|
| I need some Lauryn, Pun, Pac, and some Eminem
|
| I need some artists that I can listen to like way back when
|
| I need a lot, fuck, I need peace of mind
|
| And you only get that with accounts with a couple G’s aside
|
| For this empathy inside, cause I know we all need
|
| Artists need to humanize, cause I know we all bleed
|
| And I know I can’t cop half the shit that rappers nowadays get
|
| But I kinda be thinking that Imma need to help this generation
|
| I guess the cash rules everything around me
|
| I need to change my ways
|
| I been trying but I need to change my ways
|
| I guess the cash rules everything around me
