Delusions of Grandeur

[Intro: King Chav]

It's a lot of options we got in this world
Lot of paths we can go, a lot of things we can do (lavish)
A lot of it is an illusion
Let me tell you a story

[Verse 1: King Chav]

You wanna be king, then cop these jewels
'Cause he playin' a game that ain't got no rules
And it's plenty of drama and obstacles
And I promise on God that's a lot to lose
And these streets never sleep, so we not gon' snooze
Either starvin' or eatin', you gotta choose
Cup of seltzer up yo' retina, you got the juice
And pretend what you built get the [?], what we gotta do?
Lavish (lavish)
This type of glamor gon' get you establishеd
Till you vanish (lavish)
These type of plays won't put you on thе @ list
Rollin' with Parris with beeper talkin'
Computed the language like Stephen Hawking's
You likely to be what you seein' often
That's why we in jail or we leave in coffins
Doc, these racks stuffed in a big bank
Dyin' for the hammer, [?] Big Frank
Has lived a whole life with no presidents
But it's a new path that make better sense
On the road to Damascus, get elegance
Dilated the people with evidence
Used to feel like the blocker was heaven-sent
Till I see how it lead to some negligence (wow)
And my cousin would talk about gettin' off
Cop a Benz and new Rollie to fit his arm
He belongs to the cash, [?] Lebron
Now his daughter a woman, he Mr. Prime
I know the difference 'tween makin' a livin'
And riskin' it all just to go out and get it
Had both his parents to guide his decisions
But he wouldn't listen, he did somethin' different
These illusions
Only causin' confusion
I'ma ride y'all's allusions
Make you feel like you with it, inclusion
So these calculations has been off
Ain't no adjustin' what's been lost
All the families and friends that you missed off
So for real, tell me, how much a brick cost?

[Chorus: King Chav, Parris Chariz]

Doin' everything you can
To get established
Ready to risk it all
For somethin' lavish (lavish)
They done sold you
On all these illusions
They all grandeur
Don't fall faked into delusions
Doin' everything you can
To get established (lavish)
Ready to risk it all
For somethin' lavish (lemme tell y'all this story, man)
Lavish, lavish ($lick waves)
Lavish, lavish
Lavish, lavish (lemme talk)
Lavish, lavish (aye)

[Verse 2: Parris Chariz]

I just got back into town (yeah)
I bumped into this rapper, he said that he rappin'
And sellin' it all by the pound (what?)
He asked it I wanted it now? (Nah)
I tell him I'm good and I smile (right)
He reached in his pocket and pulled out a knife
Like I know that he poppin', I see some dudes watchin'
We parted our ways and later they popped him
All of that cappin', flexin' (phew)
Now knowin' they ready to test him (right)
Brought up with his mom and dad (wow)
Now knowin' he tossin' a blessing (yeah)
He was smart in that school, not streets (yeah)
They was brought out the trenches, it's deep (phew)
He missed what I said and did what he seen
Then ended up dead, they buried they seed
Came from the hood, but it wasn't me
But the urge to go back was buggin' me (yeah)
Had to change who around and be myself (yeah)
And I wasn't alone, I needed help (right)
Had to change all my goals, I see the steps
Had to let go the pain to get to health
Gotta let go the 'caine to get to wealth
Can't do it the same, just be yo'self, P
