One hundred
One hunnit
One honey
Is it all it takes
To simply use and dig the groove
Same haircut, same shoes
Same attitude, same quick to turn
The blind eye to your awful truth
Self-obsessed most of the time
On a strict diet of fake glory and bright lights
Pretending you’re living a lavish life
You’d never live even if you had a non-stop 9 to 5
From the day you pop out in the world
Till the day you die.
Don’t get me wrong, I too love to fly
But, you say keep it one hundred
Talking ‘bout fame and lines
and it’s funny
out of the club two hours after midnight
you try to buy a slice of shitty pizza
And you’re two cents shy.
Self-made on fleek, blessed wild and free
But if your heart had a mouth
It would spit in your face
And if it had fists
It would knock out your teeth.
And tell me what’s the urgence to say “goals”
In the sight of a heavy expensive brand-name watch
That even with two months paychecks you wouldn’t afford
To look at it and tell you the time
When you’re doing shit most of the time
If not all the time.
One hundred
One hunnit
One honey
