[English]
I invent love
And I feel the pain of finding it
I just want to be happy
I invent the sea
I invent within me a dreamer
Go, go, go, go, go, damn
Go, go, go, yo
Go, go, go, go, damn
Go, go, go (come on) go, go
Bro, I take the Goyard, I stack the money, I live the luxury life
I open the eyes of a blind man, I’m not even Jesus
Doing magic, man, I put the wizard out of work (shit)
How come this isn’t Call of Duty? I’ve emptied the clip
Nothing's more rewarding than the return of the righteous
I’ve only won because I stay true (the dreamer)
I’ve walked all these blood-stained streets living the odyssey
Showed what it means to be real gangsta in front of the crowd
Don’t get caught up in material things or MC life
That only causes greed and boredom from owning (shit)
To get rich or keep trying until I succeed
To succeed and keep fighting not to fall back (shit)
Only someone like me can compete
Better to feel fear, I’m in the ring, T's gonna destroy (ok)
How come I can’t hold back?
Spit fire like I’m drawn
Always showing what I come from
I don’t show off with what I have
How come you don’t see?
I conquer, I achieve
Bro, I go into battle
Bro, I come back with the prize (yeah)
Bro, I take the Goyard, I stack the money, I live the luxury life
I open the eyes of a blind man, I’m not even Jesus
Doing magic, man, I put the wizard out of work
How come this isn’t Call of Duty? I’ve emptied the clip
Bro, I take the Goyard, I stack the money, I live the luxury life
I open the eyes of a blind man, I’m not even Jesus
Doing magic, man, I put the wizard out of work
How come this isn’t Call of Duty? I’ve emptied the clip
