Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Yeah, it gotta be more to this life than music

Recordin' at nights, explorin' my vices

Fuckin' with whores I don't like enough to call them my wife, I'm rollin' the dice

A lil' important advice for every mere mortal alike

Regret got a price and not the affordable type

We don't get to do this shit twice, but maybe that's kinda fortunate, right?

That make this shit sorta alright, for real

The yin, the yang, wanna do wrong but want a lil' more to do right, for real

I keep the 223 and the 45 on me, I'm really like Mike for real

But I just stay out the way, shoutout to The Fray, that's how you save a life, for real

Maybe this shit just a dream, a feeling, a theme, I keep looking over a cycle

My spirit in looking for closure, I can't even hold you

I can't even stress, I'm blessed

I been more impressed with less than what I got now

Know right when I least expect it all can get etch-a-sketched

Ten toes to the ground, my head to the sky

[PreChorus]

I know I can fail, but still I'ma try

I'm willin' to die just to feel alive

The livin' we livin' is livin' a lie

It's gotta be way more than meets the eye

[Chorus]

I feel it inside

I feel it inside

I feel it inside

I feel it inside

I feel it inside

I feel it in, wait

[Chorus]

Okay, aye, all I ever wanted was a lil' money

Top notch hoes at the shows, make it real for me, aye, aye

All I ever wanted was some real paper money

Always make me feel safer, make me feel greater, aye, aye

But it's gotta be more to this shit, it's gotta be more

It's gotta be more to this shit, it's gotta be

It's gotta be more to this shit, it's gotta be more

It's gotta be more to this shit, it's gotta be

[Verse 2]

I dreamed the dreams of kings and queens

When I was a measly teen with hopes of being supreme

Would lift me up without the need for wings

With every new season brings new reasons why we perceive the things

That the E-Y-E's have seen as law, but deep down, we still believe there's more

And I'm still at war with snakes and fakes

That grace the space I take my physical form and shape

Awaiting to make my great escape

I know that they hate the rate the greats

But I'm finna take the place of somebody who on that list

Provided that this life really even exists, mm

Really, I feel like a glitch at times, I'm just a tickin' lil' time bomb

Finna ball up a fist with the planet in my palm

A reticulate python tryna squeeze everything out of this life I'm living

So I'ma take flight, we don't get it twice despite the advice I've given

My head to the sky

[PreChorus]

I know I can fail, but still I'ma try

I'm willin' to die just to feel alive, the livin' we livin' is livin' a lie

It's gotta be way more than meets the eye

[Chorus]

I feel it inside

I feel it inside

I feel it inside

I feel it inside

I feel it inside

I feel it in, wait

[Chorus]

Okay, aye, all I ever wanted was a lil' money

Top notch hoes at the shows, make it real for me, aye, aye

All I ever wanted was some real paper money

Always make me feel safer, make me feel greater, aye, aye

But it's gotta be more to this shit, it's gotta be more

It's gotta be more to this shit, it's gotta be, okay

It's gotta be more to this shit, it's gotta be more

It's gotta be more to this shit, it's gotta be
