Fame - Fortune - Glory - Money - Power - Respect - Money - Cars - Clothes - Hoes
I suppose we all want the same thing
"They say the good die young, I hope I live Forever..." BareFeet & BrokenDreams (2SOG)
I remember riding around St. Louis in my Dodge Spirit (Bertha), bouncing around to new beats and songs me and T.I.T. made (Girl Problems, Killin Em, Like Diamonds, Fuck Buddy Freestyle etc. )I use to be shy then, not really thinking i was any good, but I knew one day it would work. Fast forward a Album,a Mixtape and EP and its yet to catch on. Sometimes I fear the wrong song will catch on, thrusting me in a different direction.
The Question is would I "Sell Out"?
How High reference, I need Money. I could never stop writing or recording, but the life of a starving artist is just that. I don't want to sacrifice my Creativity for record sells, but waisting a months crafting a conceptual CD only to be released for free isn't putting money in my pockets. I know "They have to be a Fan before a Supporter". Fame
Answer: All depends on the amount of zero's
"Money is our obsession, so we make sense (Cents) of the bullshit they suggesting" The Fence (2SOG)
We all dream, thats the only thing free in life. Vanity slaves is what we are referred to. I want as many women as my body can handle. I want as much money as the next person. I want the Sports cars, The gas guzzlers, The Battery powered Rides. Can you blame me. We learned from an early age that Money is everything weather it be from out parents, the schools, or The TV. Diamonds here, down payments there. I fell for it all, soaked that idea in. Money
"I just want to make it seem like I live as lavish as them niggas rapping on the screen" Future Fronting Flow (2SOG)
Fame is not my motivation. I have people I wish to help and family I wish to pay back for their love. thats why I write, for them and for you. It shames me to let them hear i haven't lived up to my potential. I would do anything to make them proud of me. I want my listener to not put me in a box, because there are a lot we have planned for the future. Writing the same things can only get you so far. Glory
"Looking Moms in the face, and I promise I'm going to make it..." The Goodbye (2SOG)
