Atlas - family lyrics
[Atlas - family lyrics]
They say that life's too short to waste time
I don't know if it's the truth
Or heard it through the grape vine
So Imma flash a smile
And have a great ride
On the road to success
While I'm closing my eyes
See my pockets ain't fat
Wallets not lying
With anything inside
For some change
And a little piece of mind
Some people need money
Some need love
But to be completely honest
I need none of the above
Just a couple friends to chat with
Coffee to drink
Enough time for this rap shit
A confident shrink
And I'm set
Got it all mapped in my head
Rather than chasing competition
Imma laugh at them instead
See I'm ahead of the curve
With my excellent verbs
A medicine reliance
With no head tripping nerve
With no reason
To keep breathing
And believing
Yet here I am
Still limping through the season
But I'm smiling at wilding out
And the parties take my station
Getting high on the couch
And if it's dinner
Then I'm probably stuffing pie in my mouth
And if it's winter
Then I'm probably trying to hide in my house
'Cause I don't like the cold
I don't like the warm either
But my temperature tests always say that I score higher
'Cause I'm sick with it, quick witted, and said vicious
When I spit venom, the kids riddle and misfitted it
Lonely, if I'm being honest
But I'm still tough
Imma skip the symbiotics
And I got a bit of phonics
In my system when I try
Sitting in the sky
Prolly' practicing demonics
And I'm counting all the commas
That are passing my path
See I never had a reason
I should rap on a track
Said I had a perfect summer
Tried to capture it back
And knew I had a whole family
To keep on looking after my back
And that's that
I don't know if it's the truth
Or heard it through the grape vine
So Imma flash a smile
And have a great ride
On the road to success
While I'm closing my eyes
See my pockets ain't fat
Wallets not lying
With anything inside
For some change
And a little piece of mind
Some people need money
Some need love
But to be completely honest
I need none of the above
Just a couple friends to chat with
Coffee to drink
Enough time for this rap shit
A confident shrink
And I'm set
Got it all mapped in my head
Rather than chasing competition
Imma laugh at them instead
See I'm ahead of the curve
With my excellent verbs
A medicine reliance
With no head tripping nerve
With no reason
To keep breathing
And believing
Yet here I am
Still limping through the season
But I'm smiling at wilding out
And the parties take my station
Getting high on the couch
And if it's dinner
Then I'm probably stuffing pie in my mouth
And if it's winter
Then I'm probably trying to hide in my house
'Cause I don't like the cold
