I got three dollars to my name and an unwashed apartment
Payday is a week away so I'm hustlin' out the rest of my compartment
Poverty ain't no shame, just a naked walk through King's Landing
Though it does lead me astray, my mind is always expanding
The stress has left a stain, I can't relax without a supplement
But I'm fighting every day, I'm completing my life ascent
My life, my will
My strife, my thrill
My life, my will
My life, my will
Working 6 to 5, honestly I want to do it
Layin' bricks and thrive, there must be something to it
School, study, work, the bed was already made up for me
A fool, buddhi, jerk, like Goldilocks, that bed wasn't meant for me
Imagine coming home to a Miss, living life with stability
Ignorance is bliss, I wish I could unsee the predictability
Unfortunately, I can't live life that way, believe me I try
Marginally I'm pathing my own pathway, I'm daring to fly
Honestly, some people always give me deja vu
Swear I've talked to you before, yet I've just met you
Feels like you all play the same character
All in the same movie, voiced by the same narrator
Don't mean to be a conspirator, but I'm the inquisitor
And you all have an inhibitor, you're all a prisoner
Not really searching for fame, I'd rather be incognito
But if fame ever comes, I'll play it like Danny DeVito
I'll find my own way to space, won't be no money mosquito
And when I'm up there, won't be any complaints, the name's not Dennis Tito
My life, my will
My strife, my thrill
My life, my will
My life, my will
I don't believe in the pursuit of happiness,
appreciating to fail
Learning from real mistakes,
I'll take my boat without a sail
Depression or happiness, its just a state of mind in the present time
What I'm phrasing is obvious, goes like tequila and lime
Life is as a rollercoaster, what comes up must come down
So when you queue to fly again, take some time, appreciate the ground
If I won the lottery now it wouldn't change my plot
Would donate the money away or burn it on the spot
Rather climb Everest than fly to the top
Rather make money from success, because my shit is pop
I don't hate the cash, it's just the way I grew up
If you're not worth what you have, I won't share a cup
I'll make Frank happy each day,
because I know I did it my way
