[Intro]
City lights flicker, I step to the mic
No gloss, just truth in every line I write
[Verse]
Stepping past the hype, I see through the fake glow (Yeah)
I call out the money chase that only drains the soul (Hmm)
[Chorus]
Money talks loud, but it can't buy truth
I stay real, rise above the gloss, I keep the proof (24)
[Verse]
Coins and neon shine, but honesty is priceless (K-MAX)
I keep my balance, discipline over the vices
[Chorus]
Cash can't replace the work I always put in
Character wins out, while the vanity dries thin
[Verse]
Fake friends circle tight, but I stay on my grind
Measure my worth by grind and growth, aligned
[Chorus]
Greed fades fast, when the real ones stay
I’m built to last, I won’t fade away
[Verse]
Pills and pills? Nah, I choose the cleaner path
Dreams bigger than the hype, I craft the aftermath
[Chorus]
Money can't buy trust or true connection
I chase the truth, I ride with purpose, not deception
[Bridge]
Drop the facade, see the real beneath the gloss (Oh Yeah)
I rise with integrity, never taking a loss
[Chorus]
Let the fakes talk, I’m building my throne
Proof in my actions, I’m setting my own tone
[Bridge]
Stage lights dim, but my voice stays strong
What I earned in honesty will outlive the song (yes Boy)
[Outro]
I sign off clean, with a clear head and aim
Legacy stays mine, in every verse and name (It's TKM)
