The world
All we know
That we've outgrown
From which we came
Can't get back home
Take it back to the world we knew then
Simple times, simple rhymes, sayin' amen
Just a sparkle in the eye, of ya daddy's pride
Career... life plan... it's paved in
All the comforts that the middle class allow
Straight A's, win games, don't ask how
Here's a script, Scholarship, no lip,
Gotta pick ya major gotta find your cash cow
Can't get back again. This world consumes you
Can't look back again. That world eludes you
All we know
That we've outgrown
From which we came
Can't get back home
Take it back to the world we knowin'
Can't now, go back, keep on flowing
Had a little change, rearrange, show my range
Can't stop this lyric throwin'
Find the struggle of digging your own grave
Work hard, your way, I just stay brave
No map, it's a trap, just rap
Gotta show the world how well that I pave
Can't get back again. This world consumes you
Can't look back again. That world eludes you
All we know
That we've outgrown
From which we came
Can't get back home
Step one it's for the money
Step two it's all for show
Step three we're almost ready
Listen to this cash flow
All the lights that we will take in
Chase and see what you can rake in
Money cycle we can't break it
Try and see if you can make it
Can't stop consumerism
Lost on what is altruism
Buried in this voyeurism
Won't stop 'til this aneurysm
All we know
That we've outgrown
From which we came
Can't get back home
