Lyrics The Bottle on the Shelf - The Lone Rocketeer

The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"

Pardon me God, I know you're a busy man
Can you teach me how to run the world without a hundred grand
Humble me the grace to be a father to a faithful fam
With a wifey that'll have us yellin' out "Yes, ma'am"
Also with the label that I'm buildin' from the ground up
I really wanna help creators get their dream art up
On the while you know I'm workin' so hard to be relevant
Mighty as a mouse in a room full of elephants
Little overwhelming, every release an exam
Keep putin' out content, only 30 give a damn
Oh, my bad, shouldn't cuss up in the stand
Tryin to reach out, can a son of sin get a hand
Started a Patron, needed support from my fans
Wanna be their hero, but need funds of Batman
Ridin' coat tails while watching chem trails
Workin' for the white man, who would put me in jail
Sometimes I think my white friends forget
I'm young, I'm black, and I'm tired of this shit
Can't be above the law unless my bands are stacked
Dragged down in middle class while upper's piggybacked
Keep hearin' that I'm whinin' and should keep the peace
As if I chose to not be born to elites
Callin' me a snowflake, but how do they figua
White snowflakes get handled with more care than a nigga

The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"

Find it so crazy, the status of the world
Even more crazy I haven't found a girl
Talk about it so much, these women think I'm simpin'
Though I really don't think that they even pay attention
Gramin' for the WAP because they want any praise
Thirst trappin' these boys, who are so sex crazed
Confident in their body, so they get an Onlyfans
Not realizin' that irl they hurt their only man
Well I don't know cause honestly
The trend's havin' side pieces and polygamy
I get mock and scoffed for my own belief
But then they'll vibe with my songs on the same motif
They hate the vision, my religion, when it's televised
This is why God uses me to help clarify
Not trynna eat the rich, just wanna be up in their league
Then I'd come back to my roots to the ones who are in need
Not dealin' with the devil, cause I'm sowin' a holy seed
Got the tears and sweat, but I know I have ta bleed
Generation debt, but the rent is due
Cause livin' with the rents is just socially uncool

The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"

Must not be shit, you can't buy a home
For some reason it's a flex with a 100K loan
Not married at twenty-nine, wow, it must be rough
Got your girl a ring, but it ain't big enough
One day I know that we'll change the norm
Once the boomers are gone it's a changin' storm
Cause right now, if I'm seein' American white
We gotta fight for equality and basic rights

The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
The bottle on the shelf reads "Take to escape"
