Kids - Rich Brian
Ay uh
I'm putting numbers on the board
And blowing more digits
I haven't started man
These are just the before pictures
Shoutout my parents
My mother gave birth
to four winners
I love the players and the game
It's always cold benches
Been in the studio
I forgot how to sleep
Now try to make an album
they forget 'bout in a week
They say the fruit never 'gon
fall far from the tree
I used to be the kid
Now the kids want to be me
Trippin' 'bout my future like
way before there were cameras
Hella plans on my calendar
'fore I went all professional
Less souls to trust
Man these people makin' me cynical
More copycats and less people
sounding original
Same destination
We just took different routes
Fuck being one of the greatest
I'm trying to be the greatest one
I ain't saying I ain't grateful
for everything I've become
But the throne is more comfortable
Than this chair I'm sittin' on
My name is Brian
Cold bars is what I'm known for
If my vision is scaring me
Then I don't go for it
Remember my first days here
when it was all foreign
Now I'm on TV with James Corden
That shit was crazy
Just got a place with a backyard
I feel amazing
Nothing can get between me
and the dreams I'm chasin'
Ain't got the time for partying
No more gettin' wasted
Unless you got the 1942
Man then get the chaser
You hating on me
But you know
I gotta do big in your city
I'm the king of a
These rappers trying
to make the trending topic
Why the state
of music going south
But I don't even want
to talk about it
Let's talk about
Nah let's talk about it
Before all these
to give a fuck about it
Everyone's trying to make hits
I'm just trying to making music
You know
The kind that makes you feel
when you listen to it
I'm the youngest child
I don't need more attention
You're writing some bullshit
I write the lyrics meant
for the captions
I'm making songs
that'll probably outlive us
for generations
Started off as the sailor
Now look at me I'm the captain
I won't lie this shit is fun
Tell these Asian kids they could
do what they want
Might steal the mic
at the Grammys just
to say we won
That everyone can make it
Don't matter where you from
Can't forget about the day
that Sean called me
Talkin' 'bout a vision
that he's dreaming
Man I love him like a brother
And we thought we 'gon be covered
Just a man with a vision
Who mastered in causing trouble
Man I can't see the finish line
Fall back fall back
I ain't fuckin' 'round this time
Did God know he created
a legend in '99
Fuck pretending on the track
Man I mean every single line
Touchdown never holding back
Shining like some bust down
Sailing 'round without a map
Been a underdog
Now it's time
to let me quarterback
Killin' shit
in uncharted territories
Man this shit get hella boring
Whole country of people proud
So I'm never worried
Glad you're sitting
through the credits
Man this is my story
The type of shit that made me cry
when I record it
This the type of shit
that still 'gon make me cry
when I'm 40
RIP Nipsey RIP Mac
These inspirations always 'gon
motivate me to rap
Let's celebrate their lives
And the people that they impact
The marathon continues
Ain't no way we lookin' back
Amazon Prime flow
You know I always deliver
Requires just to feel
somethin' better
Generations to sacrifice
So I'll always remember
This that circle of life shit
That hold me up like I'm Simba
They told me I ain't welcome
I'm here to stay
and my visa says so
Just wait and see who's songs
they 'gon blast up
in the headphones
Come back like every couple years
To destroy like tornadoes
Victorious tropical flow
coming straight from Indo
These playas only solely wrote it
Just get cut and disposed
Their spotlight is dimming
My features so bright
that they glow
You want the blueprint
for impossible
I'll let it show
You know when Pac said
The concrete grows a rose
