Lyrics
It's getting real now
Expressing a sense of reality intensifying
Time is running out
Highlighting the urgency of time
Ocean's drying up
Suggesting a depletion or decline, possibly in resources
No support now
Indicating a lack of assistance or backing
Just these chords, how?
Questioning the significance of simple musical elements
No it isn't much
Acknowledging a modest amount, likely of success or resources
I didn't choose this for the thrills
Stating that the choice wasn't made for excitement
But now it's getting hard to pay the bills
Facing difficulty in meeting financial obligations
I'm not even sure I've got the skills
Doubting personal abilities
But no matter what I'll climb this hill
Determined to overcome challenges
Cos I just wanna be a one-man band
Expressing a desire to be self-sufficient in music
I'm trynna figure out just who I am
Searching for identity
I'm finally brave enough to take this stance
Demonstrating courage in taking a stand
And I just need you now to take my hand
Seeking support and connection
Fuck money, I don't even want it anyway
Rejecting the importance of money
What good's it to me when I'm in my grave?
Questioning the value of wealth after death
I would rather have the final say
Desiring control and influence even in death
So when I'm dead and gone, you still know my name
Aspiring to be remembered beyond material wealth
Fuck money, I don't even want it anyway
Reiterating the lack of interest in money
What good's it to me when I'm in my grave?
Repeating the theme of money's insignificance in death
I would rather have the final say
Emphasizing the importance of personal legacy
So when I'm dead and gone, you still know my name
Stressing the enduring impact of one's name
White collars chasing dollars
Observing professionals pursuing financial success
And the scholars think they're ballers
Commenting on intellectuals considering themselves successful
Let them roll the dice
Suggesting a willingness to take risks
Don't wanna be another yuppie
Rejecting a conventional, materialistic lifestyle
Just wanna keep on making melody
Expressing a passion for creating music despite sacrifices
Despite my sacrifice
Highlighting the commitment to musical pursuits
Fuck money, I don't even want it anyway
Reiterating the disregard for money
What good's it to me when I'm in my grave?
Questioning the relevance of wealth in the afterlife
I would rather have the final say
Desiring ultimate control over one's narrative
So when I'm dead and gone, you still know my name
Seeking lasting recognition beyond monetary concerns
Fuck money, I don't even want it anyway
Restating the indifference towards money
What good's it to me when I'm in my grave?
Repeating the theme of wealth's irrelevance after death
I would rather have the final say
Reiterating the wish for a definitive impact posthumously
So when I'm dead and gone, you still know my name
Emphasizing the lasting legacy over financial gain
Fuck money, I don't even want it anyway
Continuing to reject the importance of money
What good's it to me when I'm in my grave?
Persistently questioning the value of wealth in death
I would rather have the final say
Reiterating the desire for control over one's legacy
So when I'm dead and gone, you still know my name
Stressing the enduring impact of one's name
Fuck money, I don't even want it anyway
Further rejecting the significance of money
What good's it to me when I'm in my grave?
Continuing to question the value of wealth after death
I would rather have the final say
Reiterating the preference for a lasting influence
So when I'm dead and gone, you still know my name
Stressing the enduring impact of one's name
