Die Rich

0:00

They told me, "Boy, be careful what you wish for." But all I could see was money. All I could see was power. All I could see was Pablo. [Verse 1] When I was young, I stared through a broken window, Dreaming of a kingdom that I never got to live through. Empty pockets, cold nights, hunger in my veins, Swore to myself. I'd never wear those chains. I saw Pablo in the headlines, larger than life, Money coming fast, diamonds shining bright. I said, "One day, that's the level I'ma reach," While the teachers talked lessons I was blind to see. Mama said, "Son, don't let greed take your soul," But poverty was a fire burn out of control. I kept telling myself while staring at the ceiling, "One day I'll be rich. That's the only feeling." [Chorus] I'd rather die a billionaire than die broke and forgotten, Spent too many years watching opportunities rotten. But every road to riches ain't the same after all, Some roads lead to heaven, and some roads make you fall. I wanted the money, I wanted the fame, I wanted the whole world To remember my name. [Verse 2] Then the dream got darker as the years rolled by, Money brought enemies, I could see it in their eyes. The bigger the castle, the bigger the target, Every new friend had a hidden market. Looking over shoulders, sleeping with one eye, Wondering who's real and who's secretly fake. Got the cars, got the watches, got the life they admired, But peace disappeared the higher I climbed. The king sits alone when the crown gets heavy, One wrong move, and the whole thing gets deadly. I finally learned what nobody tells, Money buys comfort, but it can't buy health. [Bridge] what's the price of a dream? What's the cost of a throne? Everybody loves your money, Nobody loves your soul. [Final Chorus] I'd rather die a billionaire than die trapped in despair, But not at the cost of becoming a nightmare. Cause money means nothing when your spirit falls apart, A fortune in your pocket can't repair a broken heart. I'd rather build it right, Take my time and rise, Leave my family a future, Not just headlines and lies. [Outro] I dreamed of Pablo Escobar... Then I saw the ending. Now I'm chasing wealth, But I'm chasing it differently. Cause being rich is just like a blessing, Being remembered is just like a gold, But losing yourself just for the money Is the poorest story ever told. Can you see Elon Mosk the smartest man on earth, I tap from your blessing Jerry'sPasside... Pauliskey. 🎤🔥 #rapfame #rapfameofficials #StreetKingss #lit #hit
