Lyrics

Opportunity Cost

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Everything costs something, bro

Winning somewhere, somewhere else you just lost something though

The cost of opportunities is always good to know

But if you know that then you're good to go

Yeah, no dreams too big

Chase anything you have the passion to do

Only a dream till it happens to you

Finally seeing money now I'm acting a fool

Never thought touring the world all year

Would be something I might actually do

Friends came through got me so high

I forgot who I was passing it to

Party in a mansion, splash in a pool

Reminiscing 06 back in the school

My whole crew

Couple of niggas packing it too

Go ahead try to talk shit on me

I squad up come back with a crew

Call me a bitch see what that's gonna do

Fights in the streets like that shit was cool

Yeah, we used to do dumb shit daily

Dreamed since I was just a baby

Now I'm here its "fuck you, pay me!"

I just had enough of waiting

I worked hard, they stuck with lazy,

If I stayed I'd have just went crazy.

People change, everything's in constant motion

My old girl's across the ocean

Some stuff fades that's lost devotion.

Some folks stay some come and go

Ain't what you think it's what you know

I must run fast, you're running slow

Smoke! Break down some Kush and roll a Dutch

Right now my vibe's so alive so please

When we smoke just hush

Me and some of those who's closest to me haven't spoken much

Crazy when you learn the cost of blowing up, yeah!

(Are you worthy?)

I know I should keep in better touch, yeah

But that door it never shuts

Even when we chilled I never said that much

Sometimes it be worth the bullshit, sometimes you should let it flush

Yea, but when I'm on tour now I just get a rush

Everything is hella plush

Get caught up in all the girls I get and stuff

Meanwhile I see some girls I used to know are getting wed and stuff

Having kids with full salary jobs while I'm just getting drunk.

Missing every birthday anniversary

Yesterday my moms got out of surgery

Wasn't even in town

Shows and after parties what I've been around

Finding out the news late

Imagine how that shit sound

Sit down priorities are all over the place and shit

Stress levels rise and that J gets lit

Try on shoes that Jay Z fit, fuck all that complacent shit

I'm just dropping crazy shit, trying to outdo those fools who think they can spit

But I can't even lie, all this real life shit is passing me by

Talking to myself and I'm asking me why

Would I feel better as an average guy?

But I know that's just a lie, pour up a glass and get high

My life, might take a toll on me like I'm asking to die

Going on tour for 6 months, hug moms right after she sigh

Look up, wish me luck when you see that plane pass in the sky

No stress, bullshit gets passed to the side

Working hard to make sure I'mma be the man when I die, yeah!

Hey Gerald I just wanted to leave a message

And repeat just

You have risen to the peaks of a behavior and creativity

And it's just the begging Gerald

And it's going to be your life by the sounds of it, and I'm just so proud

I just wanted to call and sound like my cheery self when I'm happy,

So, anyway, this is just the beginning, you're going to be blown away

And you have your grounding, and yourself and that's so rare

So I'll talk to you soon and play on!

OK sweetie, I love you! Bye-bye!
