Lyrics & Translation
And I kept it all in my head
And I locked away the evil that's dispensed
And you know I have too much sorrow
So it's better if we move on
I bring in what I spend
Like the alcohol I poured
The alcohol I poured
They died before they broke through
I'm not chasing gold anymore
The path is diamond, you can't deny it
We make money effortlessly
They do ads, they're on a tightrope
Coded message, I speak in morse code
When I have time, I get a massage on an island
After each transaction, we spend
And don't make me say what I think
Gotta leave some sweat, some cash
Before getting the reward
You know I don't have time to waste
Even in a gas shortage
All year long I drive in S mode
I leave them broke, in recovery
Too much hate, so I keep my distance
And I kept it all in my head
And I locked away the evil that's dispensed
And you know I have too much sorrow
So it's better if we move on
I bring in what I spend
Like the alcohol I poured
Too much hate, so I keep my distance
And I kept it all in my head
And I locked away the evil that's dispensed
And you know I have too much sorrow
So it's better if we move on
I bring in what I spend
Like the alcohol I poured
You know that us and them, it's not the same
Every week I get some carats
If we're reaching out a hand, bro, it ain't mine
You know there are things I can't say
I pull up in a 911 or a Panamera
The engine sound goes "poc, poc"
I'll let you do your dirt in Marbella
When you come back we'll go "knock, knock"
We got the contacts, we got what we need when we need it
Diamond record
Even when it's leaked
I forget the Brabus
I'm thinking about the helicopter
We're talking suitcases, not so much kilos
You weren't there for me, don't call me family
They wanna be like us but they're gonna go bankrupt
Even the projects that are no longer popping
You take the rhinestones, and I'll leave you the glitter
Too much hate, so I keep my distance
And I kept it all in my head
And I locked away the evil that's dispensed
And you know I have too much sorrow
So it's better if we move on
I bring in what I spend
Like the alcohol I poured
Too much hate, so I keep my distance
And I kept it all in my head
And I locked away the evil that's dispensed
And you know I have too much sorrow
So it's better if we move on
I bring in what I spend
Like the alcohol I poured
