|
this is how it's goin' down |
|
across town, yeah |
|
[Verse 1: Cold 187Um] |
|
In life we have good times |
|
Like rolling in a Chevy in the high palm trees |
|
As we see Erika and Kasha give us nothing but props |
|
As we sip on fine Remi like there's no tomorrow |
|
We run into bad times |
|
Bad times meaning |
|
When you look on your porch to pick up your package |
|
There's a couple of extra UPS men |
|
That aren't normally there when you pick up your package |
|
Sad young player, I feel your pain |
|
Seems our downfall has been a game |
|
Sad times |
|
Sad times meaning |
|
When you go gold |
|
Oh yes, you yourself do go gold |
|
Do go platinum |
|
But 75% of the work you do |
|
Was created by someone who wants 100% of your publishing |
|
Nothing's in your name |
|
You're not really a player in the game |
|
But the whole world seems to think that you're |
|
Some type of role model |
|
Some type of act to follow |
|
I say those who follow those under false pretenses |
|
Shall suffer the ultimate devastation |
|
Devastation meaning |
|
While you've investing your time in being Mister Bigshot |
|
Someone's contemplating on trying to take |
|
The treasures that you think you got |
|
It's a tangled web |
|
Life is |
|
God bless those who have one to give |
|
Someone asked me |
|
Do I like the life that I have? |
|
I said yes |
|
The good, the bad, and the sad |
|
So welcome |
|
And thank you... |
|
[Break] |
|
[Music playing] |
|
[Outro: Cold 187Um Talking] |
|
This is an escalation, merging every corner of your mind |
|
And with the twist of a rhyme, we outlast time |
