Material Thing

(Jordan Lewis)

This song tells the thought of how they prefer the path of achieving their dreams rather than settling for a normal job and also what makes them successful. The money or the things they have.

These figures on my screen don't even feel like shit 
im wondering when will you get
 this money don't mean you the one but go get yo bag and live
 thrive don't just survive trust me that's risky business 
the path you chose ain't revealed until you make your decision 

Did i come a long way
 just to go the wrong way 
lord i need your light to shine
 i rise in the morning but what's the progress of my grind

Do i do this shit for a check or a living
 for a gold watch or am i trying to stack this money to the ceiling 
what's a 9 to 5 when you got dreams 
if i just do it i wonder if I'll ever become supreme 
will i sacrifice it all for a pension not to mention 
the recurring thought of what if i don't make it 
damn i hate it 
because i ain't trying to sell my adolescence for adult hood and responsibilities
 slaving over at the j.o.b
 reminiscent about home watching MTV music videos 
dreaming about the future with a Cuban link
 ice on my wrist for the pain that life bring 
survival of the fittest is such a wild thing 
trying to keep my composure though inside i want to quit 
im dying to live but how much does that cost
 i might lose my mind wondering and wound up lost
 how this paper shit so valuable when it's so common
 less in circulation this is insane like pearl harbor bombing
 either way i have to dedicate my days to paper chasing 
because i can't accept no deficit i won't be hesitant 
i think i might want the fame
with my face and my name
i don't want to be a lame

I just want to see better days

Did i come a long way 
just to go the wrong way
 lord i need your light to shine 
i rise in the morning but what's the progress of my grind
