Luck

Flashing lights Flashing high Paid the price In the name of fame Do you right Leave you wrong All alone, all is gone In the name of fame As luck would have it I find myself in a state of euphoria Like a dollar stumbled on or Multiple gained from craps played on street corners Instantaneously I am fame The future I couldn't fathom Would conquer me this domain With past scars from whips and chains Work equivalent to that of a slave My hope vested in skies filled with pies Many said were too sweet to try, but I snuck a piece anyway (sure did) Foreign numbers appear on my line Like codes or socials unidentified To match friends in disguise Long lost ‘til I was found Suddenly saw that something in me already embedded When I tried, cried, tried again Tear stains and joy pains climbing this steep mountain You just didn't get it (they never will) Whispers of my name in broad day Offices ready to pay for my worth so they can get paid Hmm (shaking my damn head) Welcome to the jungle Flashing lights Flashing high Paid the price In the name of fame Do you right Leave you wrong All alone, all is gone In the name of fame Ceiling pushed high by crooked hands Promising heaven on earth if I sign, but Next to the next woman, who am I? (Who are you?) The shit or shit Either way made sweet on your lips Prompting me to see if it's true Pleasant aroma to diffuse the stench in you Commercial delicacy I see what main course you're feeding Receiving meaningless gibberish To please my hunger pains Games to ignite hope Gamble on a losing hand Trying to be a queen fighting in a joker’s land Dangling carrot on a string as bait (Um um um you fell for it) Yesterday on top of an empire state Thousands in hand with thousands surrounding Claiming they’re my biggest fan Million hearts on IG, but As soon as I hit bottom and life support I need Nobody can find me (Where they at?) Huh, tough pill to swallow Flashing lights Flashing high Paid the price In the name of fame Do you right Leave you wrong All alone all is gone In the name of fame Money, lights, name as the main attraction Some call you Hollywood Wearing Gucci shades on arrival With celebrity status, but You as you are with a purpose is enough magic When preparation meets opportunity, you grab it Luck never had it ‘Cause it was already in me
