Shoutout Lamont, get me on the verse Let's get it Uh it's 2014, I'm listenin' to Forest Hills Drive That's right around the time I started to open my eyes to harsh realities We workin' hard for minimum salaries, increasin' our calories Cuz they feedin' us fallacies A 2014 Adolescence, right around this time I'm 16 Caught up in a box, I didn't have no big dreams A tale of two fifties, I'm a hunnid, so you feel me? I'm startin' to believe y'all don't deserve to see the real me Then I flipped a switch and told myself I gotta focus I'm outside the box, now I'm lost in a vortex Overthinkin' strategies if I'm bein' honest Eventually I lost me if I'm bein' honest Then I found myself as a reference to my wealth I learned to love mine and teach you to love yours And I'm blessed with what I have But what's wrong with wantin' more for myself in this world?
