ROUTE / WILL SMITH

[Intro]
Help me, Obi-wan Kenobi. You're my only hope

[Verse 1]
My biggest fear is not making it
To where I wanna be
I'm always thinking big
But these dark clouds over me
It's really getting hard to balance everything
But hopefully
My people can accept what I'm doing
My job can be a little bit more lenient
Move to the 'burbs so everything would be convenient
But that didn't really even change much
I guess I got some bad habits and some spending problems
Let's just be honest
And y'all can preach that modest shit
Just know that when I'm hot as shit
For everyone who doubted, you a pile of shit
I was chilling with my brother from another
I haven't broke it to him but I think he undercover
Even if he was, that shit'll never make a difference
It's a new day
Half these niggas act like bitches anyway
What can I say?
I'm exhausted
People question me like I'm a sensei
But I don't got the answers

[Pre-Chorus]
All I can do is spit and hope it spread like cancer
I embrace my individual like Marilyn Manson
I stop my dancing
I don't go out
I only stack my money high and then I route

[Chorus]
I only stack my money high and then I route
I only stack my money high and then I route
I only stack my money high and then I route
I only stack my money high

[Verse 2]
I used to spend a lot of money on blogs
'Til I figured one day, they all hogs
I gotta get up out this house
I gotta start to perform
Since then, I been building my repertoire
Now they coming at me left and right
I got people that believe in my sight
Something genuine, I got my own hype
But all I wanna do is reach some new heights
And elevate
Smoke a dutchie, then I meditate
Toss and turn at night
I wonder if my head is straight
Or if I'm just a loose end
I don't know where to begin
If I had someone to guide me (uh, fuck it)
Nobody hands in my bucket
I made it this far and I've never asked for nothing
We live in a society where laziness the problem
You following a trend but don't forget you got options
No one told me what to say in my songs
No one listened and they said I was wrong
We've all had our own key to success all along
If I make a mill, I swear I'll put all of you on
It's my nature giving back to a community
That never gave to me
But I could care less
Even if I worked with fast-food and wore a hairnet
I know people thirty-five, and still not paying rent

[Pre-Chorus]
All I can do is spit and hope it spread like cancer
I embrace my individual like Marilyn Manson
I stop my dancing
I don't go out
I only stack my money high and then I route

[Chorus]
I only stack my money high and then I route
I only stack my money high and then I route
I only stack my money high and then I route
I only stack my money high

[Outro]
And they say one, two, and he pushes you on two because people grab on three, right? And you go "HYEUHHHHH," and you fall outta the airplane and in one second you realize that it's the most blissful experience of your life, you're flying, right? It doesn't feel like falling, right? It's like this- you're actually kinda held a little bit by the wind and then you start- and you start falling and falling and there's zero fear. You realize that the point of maximum danger is the point of minimum fear. It's bliss. It's bliss! And you're flying, right?
