Jay Parish - Karma Lyrics

Is this my karma
Is this my karma
Is this my

Making millions wasn't easy and it wasn't fast
But you still built your treasure coming up from trash
Bought your place in society and paid with cash
You became the idol that you never had

Gave your kids the finest life that money gets
Not a single resource that they struggled with
But you're bothered, 'cause no matter what the number is
All they do is put a minus sign in front of it

Their goal is to be socialites in their zip code
And you're heartbroken, disappointed, it shows
But there's no sympathy for rich parents in silk clothes
When their kids develop that silver spoon syndrome

And if you read their actions like messages
All they're really asking when they're acting affectionate
Is how much do they get when you pass, what's the estimate
And how can they make changes to your last will and testament

Is it 'cause you were away when they were children
Or maybe even that wouldn't have made a difference
But you're up there in age, and the vultures await
For you to unlock the safe, and you have nothing to say
But

Is this my karma, is this my karma, yeah
Is this my karma, gotta be my karma
This movie that I'm living is turning into horror
To be continued for a million more tomorrows

Is this my karma, is this my karma, yeah
Is this my karma, gotta be my karma
I don't know how to take it, is this imagination
Or a higher power getting her retaliation
Is this my karma

When she gave you her love, she was so misguided
To you, her body was just a take-home assignment
Now there's no way that she can fix her broken heart
Any more than she can fix her broken hymen

And the next one you kept at your disposal
Paid your expenses, every penny and every total
And all she gets for being genuine and hopeful
Is all your debt being left under her social

Just like the other girl, when you said that you found your spouse
And before Junior even made his first sound, you bounced
No one even knows where to start or how to count
All the other kids you tried to not find out about

And the girl you raised is a goner
Acting out the opposite of everything you taught her
She's proud of being passed around by all of the ballers
When you hear rumors that they're running trains on your daughter
You say

Is this my karma, is this my karma, yeah
Is this my karma, gotta be my karma
This movie that I'm living is turning into horror
To be continued for a million more tomorrows

Is this my karma, is this my karma, yeah
Is this my karma, gotta be my karma
I don't know how to take it, is this imagination
Or a higher power getting her retaliation
Is this my karma

She said one day, I would learn
Said one day, I'd be sorry
Said one day, I would learn
She said one day, I'd be sorry

She said one day, I would learn
She said one day, she would
Come back for me
Come back for me
Come back for me
Come back for me

Is this my karma, is this my karma, yeah
Is this my karma, gotta be my karma
This movie that I'm living is turning into horror
To be continued for a million more tomorrows

Is this my karma, is this my karma, yeah
Is this my karma, gotta be my karma
I don't know how to take it, is this imagination
Or a higher power getting her retaliation
Is this my karma
