What Happened To The World?

(album: The Great Escape - 2023)

This my last move and all alone
I ain't tryna come back for twenty years, no more
Tired of chasing these motherfucking pennies (Ssh, ssh, ssh)
I'm tryna get a real number from the bag (Ssh)
This might go crazy, stay (Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)

Saks Fifth pillows on the plane, thinking better days
Did a lotta shit in my life, but I never changed
Two-hunnid for the Patek (Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy), and it's all plain (Numbers)
Two-point seven for the crib, and it's all paid
And niggas get a lil' bit of fame, start acting strange
Just because I showed a lil' love, it don't mean you gain (It don't mean you gain)
Just because I showed a lil' love, it don't mean you gain (Gain)
I'm still waking up jogging, plotting something big (Nice)
House with the nice garden, 'bout to make it real
Rarely got time to chill (Man), check my email, then I close another deal (Deal)
White Roll (Check), art pieces in the crib (Crib)
I know I'm getting a little bread, but it's a lot bigger (Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)
And knowing where I came from, that's a lot different (Lot different)
First to do it how I did it, but they never mention it (Never mention it)
Selling out cross-country, no agents (No agents still)
Still, you just made a fake page, I just made a 'Mill
We get chilly for real, I'm talking nights alone
I'm talking tears of joy, knowing we made it back home, what's happenin?

Man, what happened to the world? (Man, what happened to the world?)
Man, what happened to the world? (Man, what happened to the world?)
Man, what happened to the
Only thing on my mind is I know I gotta (Know I gotta-)
Know I gotta (Know I gotta-), know I gotta (Know I gotta-)
Know I gotta (Get this money), know I gotta (Make it flip)
Know I gotta (And never trip, what's happenin'?)

Black rugs in the white Rolls, keep my glass full and my eyes closed
Popping tags off clothes, taking flights domestic and international
Quit acting like assholes, we all got cash to blow
Best week, I made so much, I can't speak on it (Speak on it)
Tell your assisstant hit my people if you wanna link (You wanna link)
Celebrating our wins when we put up our drinks (Put up our drinks)
Not your ordinary niggas that come up where we come from
Made our own code, now our cars come with sports mode (Sports mode)
By the bumps in the road, marijuana gotta be rolled
Lotta money, but my family's what I care about most (Care about most)
And friends talking business plans, making toasts (Making toasts)
Coming up with ways that I could get my hands in (My hands in)
Won't settle, I need answers (Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)
I'm on some do-it-first and ask-questions-after
I'm on some movie shit, but I ain't cast with no actors
Lighting doobies up and passing
Doing numbers, and making magic (Oh-oh-oh)

Man, what happened to the world? (Man, what happened to the world?)
Man, what happened to the world? (Man, what happened to the world?)
Man, what happened to the
Only thing on my mind is I know I gotta (Know I gotta-)
Know I gotta (Know I gotta-), know I gotta (Know I gotta-)
Know I gotta (Get this money), know I gotta (Make it flip)
Know I gotta (And never trip)

I know this game can get so hard, hold on
Just keep going, my nigga (Keep going, my nigga)
No matter what, you gotta aim for the stars
Hold on, just keep going, my nigga (Keep going, my nigga)
You never know you might make it so far, hold on
Just keep going, my nigga (Keep going, my nigga)
Know I gotta (Get this money), know I gotta (Make it flip)
Know I gotta (And never trip, what's happenin'?)

And, the other house looks
During, uh, appeared a bad part in my life
And I feel that I, uh, uh, I was influenced by the flicy glamour
