TokyoRxckstar - The Route To Happiness

Let me tell you something about money man
It may be the root to all evil, but to me?
It's the route to all happiness
That's R-O-O-, nah nah nah, that's R-O-U-T-E
One more time
It's the root to all evil, R-O-O-T
But to me, It's the route to all happiness, R-O-U-T-E
Know what I mean?
You say you know me, but I think you know my name
And despite the lies that you've been taught that shit is not the same
Underneath what people see I'm alone inside my brain
With emotions that I never share because I'm scared
Of what it means to be somebody I don't want to be
I'm in a war with inner peace the devil got his hands on me
But I've got these dreams of being too tired to go to sleep
I'm popping Xannies for the flights and now I need them just to eat
I don't want to lose myself inside success but it happens I guess
I don't want to blame my sorrows on no check but it had an effect
If I don't wake up tomorrow morning I'll happily sleep
If I can die from dedication fuck it I'll probably O.D
Can't nobody tell me how to live
But everybody knows how to survive
Working this hard don't make sense
When all I've got to show are nine to fives
I ain't never had a single dollar I could spend
Ain't no family by side, just my mama and my friends
I done made a castle with the cards I was dealt
But the biggest lie that I ain't never felt
I ain't heard it in a while
Was money won't make a nigga smile
But It's different if you ain't got it right?
It's different if you ain't got it right?
When I wrap myself in verses, sometimes they feel like curses
And I know I shouldn't be manifesting shit if it can hurt me
But I do it anyway, because it sounds nice
And I watch them bob they fucking head to me playing with life
I don't do this shit on purpose, but I heard that word is bond
I don't ever pay for pussy, even if that pussy bomb
Never killed but don't you push me, cause you don't know me nigga
Everybody's got a price, don't make me pull this trigger
I kept my nose clean, and my fingers dirty
I've been rolling up this weed since like 7:30am
I know I don't need this hit
But when I smoke it makes me feel like I'm relieved and shit
And I hate myself when life's a bitch
I keep a dime by my side when I need my lift
I know I don't need this hit
But when I smoke it makes me feel like I'm relieved and shit
I ain't never had a single dollar I could spend
Ain't no family by side, just my mama and my friends
I done made a castle with the cards I was dealt
But the biggest lie that I ain't never felt
I ain't heard it in a while
Was money won't make a nigga smile
But this million dollar check feel real fucking nice right?
