SUCCESS
HOOK
How do I define success?//
What's it gona take for me to say that I’m blessed//
Is it about getting recognition?//
Or do I need to find a new definition//
How do I define success?//
What's it gona take for me to say that I’ve arrived//
Is it about the money and fame//
What happens when I finally get to the other side//
VERSE ONE
Regular job, regular car, regular crib, sniff sniff regular cologne//
Regular swag, regular dude, regular dad, just another regular ohn//
What happens when the tables turn around and the//
Banks fill up with enough to shop around and the//
Dreams come alive, I make it out alive//
I’m on the list of millionaires by time I’m forty-five//whoah
Maybe then I’ll learn how to think different//
Maybe then I’ll learn to talk and walk different//
Coz if wishes were horses I’d be flying business class from JFK to Boston//
But God saw it fit that I first learn how to walk from HK to Chelston//
It’s the making of a man, learn to shuffle deck play the cards you was dealt//
The finger of God drove us here,his grace all around us like a seat belt//
No destination on every continent//
Check your timeline posts I will be content//
May not be the biggest name on the list, but if what I’m doing is saving lives then I’m blessed//
I’m the type to disappoint the whole world for God to say well done son I’m impressed//
VERSE TWO
Drip nice, look nice get the dudes drooling//
Let the girls on the block know which chick ruling//
Money queen in the byu - boss lady//
Hustle hard till they call you ponda matiki///
Get a job, get a ride, get a house//
Get a man, reel him in, pray he agrees to be your spouse//
Chase it chase it chase it till you get it//
Fake it fake it fake it till you make it//
You won’t be happy but at least they’ll call you Mrs//
You ain’t the only girl but you’re the one he truly misses//
That’s what the girls are told, vanity of vanities//
When they arrive they find different realities//
Letting’ celebrities define what success is//
Clear recipe for mid-life crisis//
So you wana be successful in life//
Tell me again what does success really look like//
VERSE THREE
Drop an album with critical acclaim//
Let the fans welcome it rise to digital fame//
Bump heads with big names in the industry//
Win awards till everybody’s packing stadiums to see me//
Social media a million followers//
Just one post see them comment in the thousands//
Study hard show yourself approved//
Get em degrees go on take 'em through the roof//
Race hard to the top of the ladder//
If they try to pull you down bite em off life puff adder//
Rest is for the weak they said//, you will rest when you die they said//
You gon’ lose your head - Miss me with that go getter philosophy//
I refuse to get to the top only to lose my family//
Or delegate parenting to a nanny//
Should I drop my values while I’m chasing a grammy//
