(Verse 1)
They're flexing their cars and their big bank accounts
While I'm here counting pennies, every single amount
They got the yachts, the jets, and the private flights
I'm just tryna make it through another one of these nights
Ain't gonna buy some soup for us, that would be unscrupulous
But they ain't even rhyming, they just makin' their loot
(Verse 2)
They're all over the charts, they got the platinum plaques
I'm over here with nothing, just paying my tax
They're selling out stadiums, the whole world knows their name
But I'm still in the struggle, fighting for my own fame
No wait, dammit, that's a rhyme, can't break the habits
All around, I see the jugglers and clowns and mimes, break it down, double time
(Verse 3)
They got the flash, the bling, they got the shine
And I'm still over here with a pocket full of dimes
They're sipping champagne, I'm drinking the tap water,
Man, I swear it's getting harder and harder
They're taunting me with flow, that ain't even a flow
They're rubbing it in my face, like 'You'll never get to go.'
(Verse 4)
They're riding in limos, I'm on the bus,
trying to find a seat, no luck.
They're vacationing in the Bahamas,
I'm at the beach, watching the seagulls.
They're dining at Michelin stars,
I'm at the food court, where the pizza bars are.
(Verse 5)
They're flaunting their wealth, I'm flaunting my flow,
trying to make you think, no joke.
They're living the dream, I'm chasing the dream,
hoping it catches me, but it won't it seems.
They're on top of the world, I'm on the ground,
trying to find my way, but I'm downward bound.
(Verse 6)
They're rolling in cash, I'm rolling with the punches,
trying to make a mark, no avocado toast brunches.
They're living large, I'm living small,
trying to make a name, but hitting the wall.
They're on the front page, I'm in the back,
where the funny pages are.
(Verse 7)
They're living the high life, I'm living the low life,
trying to make a difference, in the hate and the strife.
They're on a roll, I'm on the dole,
trying to make a statement, but it's taking a toll.
They're on a yacht as I speak, my row boat.s sprung a leak,
trying to make a point, on a bad luck streak.
