paroles de chanson The Entrepreneur - Part 1 - obi

Never seen the righteous forsaken
I never
He won't leave me
Never
Never seen the righteous forsaken
I never
He won't leave me
Oooh

Have you ever felt insane
Odd One Out feeling awkward and strange
Do you want the money or the fortune or fame
I'm tryna break records like smashing porcelain plates
Of course I entertain
My thoughts are never safe though
Tryna juggle my mental been a struggle since Pampers and Play-Doh
More time loudest in the room
Recently bro
Ahh I don't wanna say loads
Wish I could describe this feeling that's on my mind
God put a dream in my head
And till it's achieved then nope nothing is fine
Got no other desire
Car full of chauffeurs could not match my drive
What the fuck is a creative though
25 letters in my alphabet
Long time since I seen P
Fuck that
23 letters cause I ain't been
O K in a minute
Lemme finish
Every other day reliving childhood trauma
My half-full glass now a quarter getting smaller
Caught up in the details
Fuck sitting in the office writing emails
I'm meant to travel the world inspire millions
Doing things unthought of
You can't quite tell what I got in store like
Stevie Wonder shopping in retail
My crying parents the first time I seen hell
My thingy died
And I failed to provide
Family looking at me with the sidest of eyes
Drowning in guilt with my head I just wanna hide
Honestly just wanna die
Made plans for suicide
But I couldn't really commit
Cause I didn't have the energy or time
The devil is a lie
Still I try set the world on fire
Like my name Oppenheimer
Ahh How long do it take to blow
My mummy need some money for a bill
But I'm hungry
I ain't even got money for a meal
Just paid for a mix over eating
I'm sacrificing meals trying to make a mill
Yo
I'm not a rapper
I'm an entrepreneur
Took on bare risk for financial reward
Compliments from strangers whenever I perform
But what's the point of being good if you die poor
Ahh but I won't die poor
Lord take the wheel and just plot my course
Can't control my thoughts
Think there's someone in my head but I'm not quite sure
I'm sure to see success even if it's by force
Friends with stable income getting married buying houses
My path of an artist feel directionless and crowded
I'm still waiting to hit the jackpot
From some beats off of my laptop
Life is a movie
And I'm waiting for the good part
Invested 10,000 hours making good art
I know my parents wish I got a job with some stability
Instead of tryna be a fucking artist and chasing a dream
Immigrant kid mum I'll make your sacrifice worth it
I know we're hurting
From all these hurdles
Marathon stepping with the pace of a turtle
And recently fam I been running in circles
My girlfriend
Oh my girlfriend
Not my girlfriend anymore
We were meant to be together till the world end
5 years spent
What a whirlwind
Always asking when I'm gonna be free
21 letters in my alphabet
Cause we don't know when that's gonna B
Don't wanna spend time with U
Rather spend it on my dream
My whole life I had felt alone
Like touching money borrowed from a bank
My whole life I been on edge
There's tension in the home
Tension in the street
Another black boy dead
I was an anxious black teen
My whole life I had a hole I couldn't fill
Not with love drugs women how do normal people feel
My whole life everyone looking at me for the answer
But who leads the leader when he needs aren't mastered
My whole life I just wanted to get rich
Wipe my parent's tears and solve poverty's itch
My whole life felt like I was destined for greatness
Happiness an equation but I'm just missing is the paper
This past 365 I've had so many fucking losses
But true say you gotta take L's
Before you get to the M's
Mmm
When it's all said and done and you lie in your grave
Can you swear on your heart everything's what you gave
In this life not giving your all is a waste
Yesterday you said tomorrow that never came
What a shame
Have you ever felt insane
Odd one out feeling awkward and strange
Do you want the money or the fortune or fame
Life lived as an artist is all that I claim
How many of the greats did they call insane
Had many dark nights but bitch I've been Bane
Used to cut myself and feel no way
Life was same shit on different days
But I
(Never)
Finally overcome my trauma
So I'm stepping with purpose like marching to war
When they look back on my life past 74
And ask me how I did it I say
Yeah I'm an entrepreneur
