Get What You Ask For

(album: The Greatest Story Never Told - 2023)

I give em something to talk about
I might run up a hundred thou
To just give away the Account
And go live way up in the Mountains
I know

You just wanna shout
About something but ain't allowed
Cuz all the voices sounding louder and louder
And hold you down

I guess somebody gave a ladder to the chatter astounding
How the voices I'm avoiding always sounding the loudest
Wanna go and go make some noise
Well I guess this what my cash for
I ain't never picture this if I had hit up the fast forward

I ain't give up my last sword
I be swinging till last chord
Of the fat lady's song start to bring down house or
Till the the waves start crash in a flash on my back porch
I be singing till they hear it
You can get what you ask for

But you don't need it, you want it
I gave you money, you bought it
You only think I'm an artist
But you don't know where I started
Now I don't know where my heart is
You think it's up on the market
I'm hitting financial targets
You think I'm fine, cuz I'm nodding
But you'd be wrong

I don't like to brag cause we could get along
Thinking bout the past, I could put it in a song
If you wanna ask for another I'm gone
If you wanna ask for another I'm gone

Treat you like a queen, but you... see me as a pawn
Think about yourself, you don't think about the cost
If you wanna ask for another I'm gone
If you wanna ask for another I'm gone
