[English]

My mom said to me,

“Find someone

who can give you everything”

And I said,

“Mom, I already have everything”

I am a Rich Man

I am a Rich Man

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

I’m my own biggest fan

and I’m high in demand

I am a Rich Man

Don’t care about

what they say

Whenever they shove me inside

And do whatever they please

They want what's mine

See, my name is

Where my name is

I am a Rich Man

That’s me, I'm Reckless

Rock hard mentality, I laugh it off

I follow my own lead

Next Sign, I see it

No big deal

Exit is my next step

Nothin' on my mind but

Self-belief

'Cause it's so much more fun

Wooah Huh

I am a Rich Man

So I am standin’

where you’re lookin’

Almost tailor-made,

My perfect fit

Baby

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

I'm that one

I'm full of me, By myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

I’m my own biggest fan

and I’m high in demand

I am a Rich Man

La la la la la

I am what I am

La la la la la

I am a Rich Man

La la la la la

I am what I am

La la la la la

I am a Rich Man

Don’t care about

what they say

Whenever they shove me aside

And do whatever they wish

If anything, it's Okay

See, my name is

Where my name is

I am a Rich Man

Don’t need the money

Yeah, I see it

In my closet

My ideas

My talk

My walk

My name

You know,

when I’m serving them

Looks, Imma feed ‘em

Nothin' on my mind but

Self-belief

'Cause it's so much more fun

Wooah Huh

I am a Rich Man

So I am standin’

where you’re lookin’

Almost tailor-made,

My perfect fit

Baby

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

I'm that one

I'm full of me, By myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

I’m my own biggest fan

and I’m high in demand

I am a Rich Man

24, everyone's the Same shade

You already know,

what the tag say?

Make it better

on my own—my tag

I won't double back

I don't copy

If you blame it, cameo

I carry the load,

run the show

I'm like a Diamond ring

Already got my thing

Cannot put a price on it

This is the real deal

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

I'm that one

I'm full of me, By myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

Imma carry myself

I am a Rich Man

I’m my own biggest fan

and I’m high in demand

I am a Rich Man

La la la la la

I am what I am

La la la la la

I am a Rich Man

La la la la la

I am what I am

La la la la la

I am a Rich Man
