Happy (Cover)
(Intro - Female Vocals, ethereal, echoing) Ever seen a hundred fifty... Rubber band up... Doesn't that make you happy? ...Or is that the issue? (Verse 1 - Male Vocals, rhythmic and introspective, JID-style flow) Ever seen a soul with nothin', watch 'em get it ran up? Stackin' up the dividends until the elastic give up Don't that make you happy? Guess it really don't, that's the issue I know brothers in the wind who constantly runnin' from issues I was never on the wave that these other dudes was surfin' Knew it standin' on the curb, the concrete startin' to hurtin' If a problem ever came, you know I wasn't gon' divert Got my own code of respect, know what I'm willin' to hurt for The very same thing that I'm silently willin' to search for Cancel all your idols, I ain't got no big homies, yeah I kicked the door in off the strength of the nights I couldn't sleep Too many to count, the ledger's incredibly deep But the compensation package is somethin' I can keep (Chorus - Male Vocals, melodic and anthemic, Kid Cudi-style hums underneath) Ever seen a hundred fifty, rubber band up? (Yeah, yeah) Ever seen a nobody start from nothin', get it ran up? (Go on) Don't that make you happy? (Make you happy?) Oh, it don't? (It don't) Then that's an issue (That's the issue) I know folks who runnin' (Runnin'), runnin' from they issues (Verse 2 - Male Vocals, boastful but weary, faster flow) Y'all seen fate? Every single thing I touch, they yell "TKO!" Money on the line, man, it's always "Game Time," like a free throw I been illuminated since them ringtones on your Motorola I am up, lil baby, on a level, I don't need no reload Need a queen in the kitchen on a mission, like she Ving Rhames Imagine they see me, hella chilled with my controller, winnin' games Sun-kissed on my grin from the roof, they don't think the same Are you happy for me? Yeah or nah? That's the question that I pose It don't matter though, I'll just make a hit song for all my foes (Chorus - Male Vocals, more intense) Ever seen a hundred fifty, rubber band up? (Stack it up) Ever seen a nobody start from nothin', get it ran up? (From the mud) Don't that make you happy? (Make you happy?) Oh, it don't? (It don't) Then that's an issue (That's the issue) I know folks who runnin' (Runnin'), runnin' from they issues (Bridge - Male Vocals, reflective, slower tempo) And just thinkin' 'bout it ain't gon' fix you, nah Gotta be 'bout that action, the motion, or I might miss you I'm invested in gettin' every dollar, call it GED Money ain't the everything, but broke never was the friend to me Anxiety is taxin', so I'm maxin' out the good times I'm cashin' out at City National, feelin' so sublime Manila envelope, that feelin' is so magical Like, "I can buy this building," yeah, the power's astronomical A hundred rubber-banded up, they askin', "How much for the kitty?" I'ma bargain with a hundred mill', still savvy out the city I can sense the energy, I'm an empath, feel the frisson But I can't get caught up playin' in they cruel simulation (Outro - Female Vocals, fading) ...Running from the issue... ...Hundred fifty... ...Game over... or continue? ...Does it make you happy?
