Song For The People

Lyrics

[Verse 1] People underestimated me my whole life Didn't take me seriously, that's right! I scraped and clawed, poked and prod Put myself in sticky situations, hands of God I came out the other side, wide eyed Perspective, directive, mind in stride I worked at the craft and I busted my ass I refined, streamlined, working through each draft Nothin' ever happens, unless you put in the work That much I understood, the dedication it took Song after song, scraping along When everyone says "you're doing it wrong" I won't fold, I won't hide, I will sing, I will fight And if I fall, man I'll bounce back every time My aim isn't wealth or luxury rides My currency's the difference in a million kids lives [Chorus] This is a song for the people Trying to find what makes them go Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump This is a song for the people Trying to find what makes them go Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump [Verse 2] Wake up and obsessively start scrolling the phone Feed it to me baby, make me feel more alone A hotter chick, a better bod, a famous friend, a fatter wad It's no wonder feeling pleasure is becomin' so hard You need a little blind faith, maybe puffin' on an eighth Or just fake it till you make it man, whatever it takes Roll the boulder son, kill the inner bitch in you Push it up the hill till you're admiring the view But once you're at the top you can't stop, or you'll drop Cuz someones comin' up, looking to take your spot Opportunities come to you But not till you've paid your dues [Chorus] This is a song for the people Trying to find what makes them go Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump This is a song for the people Trying to find what makes them go Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump [Verse 3] Man, I just keep asking myself Is this the life that I'm meant for? Is there something else? Self-sabotage, my own worst foe Self-trapped in cycles where the doubt just grows Self help books to reset the brain Self medicate to mask the pain Self-reflect mistakes, try to learn somethin' Self-love when I feel broken Self-promise to begin with the end in mind Self-driven, cuz it's only a hill I can climb The mastery of self Is the greatest of wealth The mastery of self Is the greatest of wealth [Chorus] This is a song for the people Trying to find what makes them go Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump This is a song for the people Trying to find what makes them go Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump Bump, bump bump bump, bump bump, bump bump, bump
