Rich For You

All the kids I used to hang with out on Salem

Tell everybody that I popped off and I left 'em

They tell they college friends they knew me way before

But now I never hit 'em back, I'm self-absorbed

They probably say I only care about the money

'Cause that's what everybody's thinkin' when you're buzzin'

They talk about me like I've had it made forever

Like we didn't sneak in and steal shit together

Growing up, I still think I had it pretty easy

But everyone who's rich, I thought they were greedy

My grandparents had a mansion

And their son would get his lights cut off

They never helped at all, that stayed with me

And Daddy, I don't mean to be so rude

But I worry 'bout you now, to tell the truth

So tell them that I'm selfish and I'm stingy

I'm a money hungry sissy

But I'm only gon' be rich, for you

But don't you feel bad, it's okay

I do it all for you, my friend

Don't you feel good when it go away

When it's on me instead

All eyes on me, all hands on me, all blame on me, yeah

All rain on me, if the ship just sink, then shame on me

I got a homie who's a rapper,

If he's good, it doesn't matter

Goes to work, I hit the booth

And then he picks me up right after

Been kickin' it for years before I had my own career

Shit I was climbin', he was climbin',

He just took a different ladder

Just imagine, he's been stagnant

But now his younger friend blew up

Like how the **** that happened?

You think he'd be bitter, actually he's not

'Cause when his friend is A-list he thinks he gon' be on

They gon' make it top together, they gon' hit the club together

They gon' probably sign together, **** the label up together

They gon' hit the stage together,

They gon' tour the world together

They gon' meet some groupie chicks,

Then break up with their girls together

I ain't even mad, maybe I would do the same shit

I look into his eyes and I can see that expectation

Nah, I can't escape it, that's what I signed to

So I guess if I'm famous, I'll be famous for you

But don't you feel bad, it's okay

I do it all for you, my friend

Don't you feel good when it go away

When it's on me instead

All eyes on me, all hands on me, all blame on me, yeah

All rain on me, if the ship just sink, then shame on me

My family is like a team within that home

But siblings compete together, isn't that so?

My mama grew up as a middle child in a middle-class home

They moved out and went on different paths alone

My two uncles went to college and killed it

They became the success story, the novel they scripted

My mama went to college but she dropped out and missed it

'Cause she was having some new problems

That she oughta just deal with

And man, I hate the way she talk like she don't think she a winner

I study her at the table at these holiday dinners

My uncles talk about the jobs, but they only ask their sister

'Bout her soon-to-be-famous son, 'cause wow, he's a killer

She's so proud, and I can see the pride in her

And that shit makes me so happy that I could cry with her

Now she becomes the focus and she deserve it too

So if I'm a success, I'm a success, for you

But don't you feel bad, it's okay

I do it all for you, my friend

Don't you feel good when it go away

When it's on me instead

All eyes on me, all hands on me, all blame on me, yeah

All rain on me, if the ship just sink, then shame on me

If the ship just sink, then shame on me
