lyrics
You don't have enough purchase to impress me
You don't have enough purchase to impress me
I only said it I never meant it
It hurts your feelings if you let it
Put yourself out there then regret it
The poor boy waits for his life to start
He's driving the family car
And looking for a girl to break his heart
"What are you thinking?" she said
"Get up, get out of your head"
"Wake up and live your life before you're dead"
I never said it, I only meant it
I didn't mean it, I said it
My only hope is that I didn't loose it yet
You don't have enough purchase to impress me
You don't have enough purchase to impress me
I wouldn't see it
Definitely didn't, or don't believe it
Apparently was not ready to be it
Can I even conceive it
Or am I just waiting for life to leave me
Wonder why it's not like on the tv, believe me
All questions no answers
So many lies I can't remember
And not enough time to kick these demons out my mind
Thoughts misconstrued from being me and you
I don't mean to judge, but it's all true
I knew
You don't have enough purchase to impress me
You have enough
I was born the fatherless son of a fatherless son
Raise your hand if you've got the same problem
We live in a land with Gordon Gekko and "Greed is good"
Classism, White, Republican hype
Y'all assume the position
Mother f*ckers listen when you got them in the ill situation
It's animation
My rhymes are wicked like the story of this nation
And now I judge again
You don't have enough purchase to impress me
You don't have enough
You don't have enough purchase to impress me
