Lecrae talks about his own experiences with...
[Intro: Ty Brasel]
(SAK PASE)
Yeah, ayy
[Chorus: Ty Brasel]
Coast to coast, now these people know my name
Hit new lows, the higher you go, the more empty space
Fill the holes with drugs tryin' to medicate the pain
It's a cold world, so I went and iced out my chain, ayy
Lifestyles of the rich and famous, yeah
Up so high, living dangerous, yeah
Everybody wanna be rich and famous, uh
Seems like the love gone when you nameless
[Verse 1: Lecrae]
Poppin' pills, coppin' feels, chasin' thrills
Chase the fame, go insane, lost my zeal (Lost it all)
Hundred grand on my neck (Neck)
Hundred miles on my dash (Skrrt)
Couple M's on my check (Uh)
Feel like my life gon' crash
Tryna take off (Take off)
Feel like my wings gon' break off (Break off)
Hopin' this chase gon' pay off (Yeah)
So I don't ever take no days off (Never)
All these people sayin' that they feelin' my record
But I've been drinkin' liquor as an antidepressant, yeah, yeah
I don't wanna lose control (Control)
I don't wanna lose my soul (My soul)
I mean it, the truth be told
I feel like I'm losin' hope
Countin' all this money, but I'm feelin' like I'm lackin'
She can't make me happy, she a beautiful distraction, yeah
Rich and famous, can you blame us? We came from the ground up
Sell my pain for entertainment 'til the money pile up
Sell my soul to sell a song
Buy a bunch of stuff I can't take when I'm gone
Fame (Fame)
[Chorus: Ty Brasel]
Coast to coast, now these people know my name
Hit new lows, the higher you go, the more empty space
Fill the holes with drugs tryin' to medicate the pain
It's a cold world, so I went and iced out my chain, ayy
Lifestyles of the rich and famous, yeah
Up so high, living dangerous, yeah
Everybody wanna be rich and famous, uh
Seems like the love gone when you nameless
[Verse 2: WHATUPRG]
Twenty, forty, sixty, eighty, ooh, I love to count it, uh
If it's meant to be, then it'll be and I don't doubt it, uh
Family the only thing I need to keep me balanced, uh
We cannot discuss, you not one of us
Don't know who to trust, double tint the truck
Still in the cut, keep the chain tucked
No one's down for you 'til they see you goin' up
But who gon' ride for me? (Skrrt) Keep me company? Ayy
Feel like Purple Rain
All the fame, it was never meant to cause you pain
Tryna find another way, but it's all the same
You my remedy, you my novocaine
[Chorus: Ty Brasel]
Coast to coast, now these people know my name
Hit new lows, the higher you go, the more empty space
Fill the holes with drugs tryin' to medicate the pain
It's a cold world, so I went and iced out my chain, ayy
Lifestyles of the rich and famous, yeah
Up so high, living dangerous, yeah
Everybody wanna be rich and famous, uh
Seems like the love gone when you nameless
[Outro]
I had so much on my mind at a time
When I found myself, found myself
I had so much on my mind at a time
When I found myself, found myself
At a time when I had so much on my mind
Went from Venus to the sun
Tore my mental through the mud
I've been goin' through the grind
I was crawlin', now I'm flyin'
Told my mama, "Build a shrine
To the old me 'cause I died," I'm on top, ayy
