Lyrics

City boy dreams, making sizable moves

Expressing ambition in urban life, aiming for significant achievements.

Never tied down to nothing, this the life that I choose

Preferring a lifestyle free from commitments and embracing personal choices.

Me and my crew getting dizzy, now we stopping for fuel

Enjoying life with friends but pausing to refuel before pursuing bigger goals.

Next stop we headed straight for the moon

Setting ambitious goals, symbolized by heading straight for the moon.

My pockets thinner than a futon, that's why I need to elevate

Financial struggles motivating the need for improvement and success.

Been curving on myself but the time has come to set it straight

Reflecting on personal growth and the decision to correct past mistakes.

Troubled thoughts bring trouble and that's not how I'll live today

Rejecting negative thoughts to live a positive and fulfilling life.

Spark a light upon my mind and let my worries detonate

Seeking enlightenment and letting go of worries through self-reflection.

First off, mama need some rest and relief

Prioritizing the well-being of a loved one, specifically the narrator's mother.

What can I do if you gon' stress over me

Expressing concern about causing stress to someone important in their life.

We got a roof and some things and we got enough to eat

Gratitude for basic needs being met, acknowledging a modest lifestyle.

Now let me see what I accomplish with a beat

Exploring personal achievements and potential through music.

Atlas on the radar, can't nobody interfere

Asserting independence and determination to succeed despite obstacles.

And I'm never stopping til they know my name in every single hemisphere

Commitment to making a name known globally and leaving a lasting impact.

And I got the passion that'll get me there

Emphasizing the intense passion that will drive the narrator to success.

The passion that'll get me there

Reiteration of the powerful passion that will propel the narrator forward.


Said can I make a million dollars off a rap tune

Persistent questioning about the financial success achievable through music.

Now can I make a million dollars off a rap tune

-

Now can I make a million dollars off a rap tune

-

Now can I make a million dollars off a rap tune

-

I'm tryna make a million dollars off a rap tune

Continuing the aspiration to achieve financial success through music.


And I've been dreaming so loud I'll wake my granddad up

Expressing dreams loudly, potentially disturbing others, including family.

Growing up I played my own, 'cause no man stand up

Being self-reliant and independent, avoiding relying on others.

Grateful now, but I admit I often bit the hand that fed me

Acknowledging past mistakes of taking things for granted.

Bunking at my boy's house my mind was filled with envy

Reflecting on past envy and negative thoughts during challenging times.

Like man he got that brand new PlayStation and touch phone

Comparing one's own circumstances with those perceived as better.

Some fresh clothes, two parents that got along

-

And a big ass house with a green ass lawn

-

Young and foolish, placing value on some stupid shit

Realizing the value of their own situation and finding gratitude.

Then I saw his parents screaming and yelling, hissing and cussing

-

Slowly came to see my situation was a blessing

-

Lotus out the mud, little kid stayed resilient

Overcoming challenges and confidently putting one's name on achievements.

Now watch him put his name on a million

-

Care for my affiliates, knowing they gon' care for me

Emphasizing mutual care and support within personal and professional relationships.

Really though, what's luxury without the right company

Highlighting the importance of the right companionship in a luxurious lifestyle.

Keep that on my conscience, even when I'm selling overseas

Maintaining a moral compass even in the face of success and wealth.

Even when there's money trees and honey bees growing on my property

Acknowledging material success but emphasizing the value of genuine relationships.

雨雲の下でもいつもどおり

Japanese text expressing the joy of life, playfulness, and living each day as if it's Saturday.

はっきり見えてきた、あと少し

-

遊びは真剣、子供のように

-

生きる毎日が土曜日

-

Said can I make a million dollars off a rap tune

Repetition of the desire to achieve financial success through music.

Now can I make a million dollars off a rap tune

-

Now can I make a million dollars off a rap tune

-

I'm tryna make a million dollars off a rap tune

Continuing the aspiration to make a million dollars through a rap tune.
