akira the don - winning lottery ticket number lyrics

(anybody can win the lottery)
(know what i’m saying?)
(my motto is, if you wanna win the lottery)
(you have to make the money to buy a ticket)

avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers
this is generally true of advice anyway
which is, it’s back to scott adams’ “systems, not goals”
if you ask a specific person
what worked for them
very often, it’s just like they reading out
the exact set of things that worked for them
which may not be applicable for you
thеy’re just reading you
their winning lottеry ticket numbers
it’s a little glib
there is something to be learned from them
but you can’t just take their exact circumstance
and map it onto yours
the best founders i know
they listen and read to everyone
but then, they ignore everybody
and then make up their own mind
they have their own internal model
of how to apply things their situation
and they do not hesitate to discard information
how to apply things their situation
and they do not hesitate to discard information
[chorus]
avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers
avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers

if you survey enough people
all the advice will cancel to zero
so you do have to have your own point of view
and when something is sent your way
you have to very quickly decide
is that true?
is that true outside of the context
of what that person applied it in
is it true in my context
and then, do i wanna apply it
you have to reject most advice
but you have to listen to and read enough of it
to know what to reject and what to accept
what to reject and what to accept
even in this song, you should examine everything
if something does not feel true to you
put it down, set it aside
if too many things seem untrue
delete this album
[chorus]
avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers
avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers

i view the purpose of advice
as a little different than most people
i just view it as helping me have anecdotes and maxims
that i can then later recall
when i have my own direct experience and say
“ah, that’s what that person meant”
(until that day)
(i didn’t know what they meant by that)
or you can almost think of these as pointers
addresses, mnemonics to help you remember
deep+seated principles
where you have the underlying experience to back it up
if you don’t have the underlying experience
then it’s just reads like a collection of quotes
it’s like, “it’s cool it’s inspirational for a moment”
maybe you make a nice poster out of it
but then, you forget it and move on
so all of these are really just compact ways
for you to recall your own knowledge
for you to recall your own knowledge
[chorus]
avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers
avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers

[chorus] [by akira the don]
avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers
avoid people who got rich quickly
they’re just giving you
their winning lottery ticket numbers
their winning lottery ticket numbers
