[Intro: Anthony Russo]
And you already know what it is
[Chorus: Anthony Russo]
Yeah people come, yeah people go
I just sit back and collect gold
I'd rather do it all on my own
No one else can fill in my role
Time is moving I cannot stay
Lost people with a smile on display
Fuck this window that I'm standin' in
I'm doing more than all these mannequins
[Verse 1: Bazanji]
I seen a lotta things changing my perspective
I seen a lotta things I never expected
People drinking liquor tryna fill their emptiness
Spending all their money on some people faking friendliness
Money isn't happiness with nobody to spend it with
And people actin' real but really they just gon be blendin' in
I keep my circle small
I know who rockin' with me
'Cause some people say they got you but they changin' up too quickly
When it go down they gone now
Don't pick you up when you fall now
But they hit you up when you on now
And they want it all tryna ball out
I know how that shit go
Stay to myself and i get it alone
Keepin' it real and I know what's the deal with the people that with me since I was at home
[Chorus: Anthony Russo]
Yeah people come, yeah people go
I just sit back and collect gold
I'd rather do it all on my own
No one else can fill in my role
Time is moving I cannot stay
Lost people with a smile on display
Fuck this window that I'm standin' in
I'm doing more than all these mannequins
[Verse 2: Bazanji]
These people want relationships for benefits
Seeing through their skin and I can tell you that they delicate
Seeing through their shadow and the truth is always evident
They tryna bring me down so I'm always stayin' hesitant
Life been gettin' crazy is it really what I wanted
When I put in time I worked for this I always saw it comin
But I was havin second thoughts
Was I driven for the wrong reasons
Becoming someone surrounded by all the demons
And I stepped back and took time off
Found myself when I felt lost
Found the things that I want in life
And I've Always been my own boss
And I've always been on my own dog
Doing things how I planned out
Thinkin' bout my family when they told me I was gonna stand out like
[Chorus: Anthony Russo]
Yeah people come, yeah people go
I just sit back and collect gold
I'd rather do it all on my own
No one else can fill in my role
Time is moving I cannot stay
Lost people with a smile on display
Fuck this window that I'm standin' in
I'm doing more than all these mannequins
