In the middle of nowhere
We don't waste time
I don't check the clock
I just feel the wind
I let go of the weight
I write what I think
I only write what I remember
I only write what I live

Living again, it's been a while
Pulling all-nighters, doing it right
We’re the proof
This ain't no test
I used to count bills
Now I'm over it

Since the green turned to blue
And the fish swam in the bank account, bank
My girl used to tell me that money don’t matter
But I guess I never listened well, well

But it's okay
I get it now
Money don’t prove
That I'm the one
I got no gift
I trained to be good
I killed everyone
And I still ain't done

Like a hero, I'm far from home
I'll only come back with a Grammy and a pile of baftas
Spitting venom, my mouth full of sores
Walking the line, the edge of the blade
The saying goes: Don't talk, just do
Kids from the favela are born with a trophy
Even without a home, their mind’s on the goal
We make it real, this ain't a reality show

Goddamn, my friend, life is some real shit
(But I'd get addicted just to take another hit)

Goddamn, my friend, life is some real shit
(But I'd get addicted just to take another hit)

Goddamn, my friend, life is some real shit
(But I'd get addicted just to take another hit)

Goddamn, my friend, goddamn, goddamn, goddamn, goddamn, goddamn

Like back home, where nothing works
But why stop? Better face it like a man
I've been masked up way before covid-19
Don’t walk with me if you ain't real, just leave

Like back home, where nothing works
But why stop? Better face it like a man
I've been masked up way before covid-19
Don’t walk with me if you ain't real, just leave

Working late nights
Even if it don’t pay me back
Walking dirt roads
Always against the current
My work's fucking good
Even if it ain’t moving forward
I'm just a joke y’all watch
But never understand

For real, what's the problem with just being me?
Guess the problem is in the wounded ego
Always looking for someone else to hate me
When the one who really hates me is just another fucker

Hard to do things without criticizing myself
They say it's good, but I don’t see it that way
What’s the point of critique if it makes me stop?
I'm just another one trying to make it big

Goddamn, my friend, life is some real shit
(But I'd get addicted just to take another hit)
