[Intro]
Ayy
Uh

[Verse 1]
It's lonely at the bottom, too
I'm not the one, peace sign, I'm on the move
World topple by the bottom of my shoes
I had to loot, I ain't have a lot to lose
Plotting on land, now I want my proper dues
Still ain't got the payment for some jawns I produced
That's how they move, then why I'm playing by the rules?
Was skipping school, that don't mean that I'm the fool
A genius know the prize is not the jewel
But how you gon' find it in the ruins, I'll find it in the music
I get on stage, sing the blues
Just to make enough to pay for food and making my dues

[Chorus]
Had to go and get it my own way
Roll a spliff after a long day
Tryna get this money the long way
That's how I'm always breaking it down
Since I was a kid in the hallway
Teacher said I'm going the wrong way
Had to go and get it my own way
That's how I'm always breaking it down
Breaking it down

[Verse 2]
It's lonely at the bottom, too
Just to find a view, I had to climb the roof
Glass shattered by the bottom of my shoes
I had the loot, I ain't have a lot to lose
In it to win, now I want my proper dues
And never wanted fame for some plays I had to do
I know the game and they ain't playing by the—
Was skipping school, that don't mean that I'm the fool
A genius know the prize is not the tool
But how you stay wise, how you use it
I tried to make a groove
I got on stage, sang the blues
Just to make enough to pay for food and pay all my dues

[Chorus]
Had to go and get it my own way
Roll a spliff after a long day
Tryna get this money the long way
That's how I'm always breaking it down

[Outro]
It's lonely at the bottom, too
