Half-Centric - Blue Faces Lyrics

Grind all day
To f*ck all night
That's how we acting right
Cash rules everything around me
CREAM get the money
Get some paper and you know I ain't acting right
If money is the root of all evil
Why do we need it to live
Does that mean living life
Is deceitful
Yo
When does it give
It's what it is
Cest La Vie
Worried about leaving a legacy
What could it be
I left something for my seed
I sowed it
And toiled it
What does it really mean
Understanding it's an opportunity
To explore worlds and things unseen
Even things beyond your wildest dreams
Times flying
You wanna find more time
But rhymes
Is putting keys into better things
Cause I'm gone put this shit on streaming
And collect every penny
And when those royalties hit
Might even buy me something pretty
Go and spoil my chick
Ride through the city
People bumping
Exploring my riffs
It's the divide
Of being broke
And trying to provide
It's glamorous
We become amorous
Of riding the high
Beauty of the beholder
Resides in the eye
But all I see is greed
Green compromising my life
What a ride
Blue faces
Opportunities for new places
Mess around and meet some new faces
Enter the races
Learn to paper chase it
Hope you don't end up in last place kid
Blue faces
Opportunities for new places
Mess around and meet some new faces
Enter the races
Learn to paper chase it
Hope you don't end up in last place kid
Grind all day
To f*ck all night
That's how we acting right
Cash rules everything around me
CREAM get the money
Get some paper and you know I ain't acting right
Great excess
Could lead to greater stress
But let me pout in a sports car first
Then I can determine what's really best
The urge to not flex
I'm hexed
Living cordially
I live in abundance
My people
They are the world to me
I'm trying to get ahead
But also very behind
Perpetually in catch up mode
Until I shine
Here I rhyme
Like the rents due
Chopping beats like ginsu
I could rinse you
Or be washed away in the flood of blue faces
Like a vaudeville show
Tap dancing in these places
Where I'm disposable
Feeling deplorable
Do I sell my soul for a slice of the pie
Knowing I'm replaced the exact moment I die
Enter the rat race
For cheese
Don't get last place
The grind will bring you to your knees
But you must chase
My Mobb runs Deep
You press us you get shook
One time
For the moments in life you ain't took
Blue faces
Opportunities for new places
Mess around and meet some new faces
Enter the races
Learn to paper chase it
Hope you don't end up in last place kid
Blue faces
Opportunities for new places
Mess around and meet some new faces
Enter the races
Learn to paper chase it
Hope you don't end up in last place kid
Grind all day
To f*ck all night
That's how we acting right
Cash rules everything around me
CREAM get the money
Get some paper and you know I ain't acting right
