summer of 96 - not a rich man lyrics

[hook]
i’ve been called down so many names
but nobody ever called me a rich man
my ex-girlfriend was a love of my dreams
and she left me for a rich man

[bridge]
everything seems out of my reach
like i’m falling in quicksand
i know in my mind i’m a king
but i probably won’t die a rich man

[verse 1]
feeling like i carry the worlds weight on my shoulder
momma always told me these days will make me a soldier
i keep my friends close, i keep my enemies closer
the music is giving me youth, but the stress is making me older
sometimes i want to give it all up and just take the pain away
we dust in the wind and i feel myself slowly fade away
all i ever get with this heart is breaks and these 808s
lord give me a sign i’m just tryna make it from day to day
my sneakers worn down, no soul in em
i need the kind of money with the fold in em
man these pockets ain’t got no dough in em
feeling worthless as a penny with a hole in it

[hook]
i’ve been called down so many things
but nobody ever called me a rich man
my ex-girlfriend was a love of my dreams
and she left me for a rich man

[bridge]
everything seems out of my reach
it`s like i’m knee-deep in quicksand
i know in my mind i’m a king
but i probably won’t die a rich man

[verse 2]
staring at this bottle of liquor
i drink it quicker and quicker
if i don’t get the picture
i’ma be a goner
who said money can’t buy you happiness?
i’d rather be crying in a c-cl-ss than crying on the corner
cause my sneakers worn down, no soul in em
i need the kind of money with the fold in em
man these pockets ain’t got no dough in em
feeling worthless as a penny with a hole in it

[hook]
i’ve been called down so many things
but nobody ever called me a rich man
my ex-girlfriend was a love of my dreams
and she left me for a rich man

[bridge]
everything seems out of my reach
like i`m knee-deep in quicksand
i know in my mind i’m a king
but i probably won’t die a rich man

[bridge (royce da 5’9″)]
i said i crawl that bad quicksand, than i became a rich man
(say i probably want die a rich man)
i said fuck the fame, i’m ’bout knowledge itself, health and rich, man
(say i probably won’t die a rich man)
i’m a law-fearer and…

[verse 3 (royce da 5’9″)]
all seeing i who didn’t involved in a god’s hearing
all hearing money involve the thoughtless car stealing
crime dodging and walking pallbearers, with them boxes
before i go back to drinking, i’d rather take shots through the spine
i`m here to make my careers outta reach
here to make and here to be straight poppin of nothin
i`m literally straight poppin this outta the clip
que-pasa? exposing your boys, but think they pay mobsters
those are your boys who not shoot as they got hose and shirts
cause they are boxers
i`m planning to die rich with my head in the hands of a black chick
ready to die and already made wedding plans with god`s b-tch
you, niggas, deal with petty mans` logic, not me
i deal with hefty cans or bags filled with 70 grand of dollars

[hook]
i’ve been called down so many names
but nobody ever called me a rich man
my ex-girlfriend was a love of my dreams
and she left me for a rich man

[bridge]
everything seems out of my reach
like i`m knee-deep in quicksand
i know in my mind i’m a king
but i probably won’t die a rich man

[outro]
i said i probably won`t die a rich man
i probably won`t die a rich man
i probably won`t die a rich man
i probably won`t die a rich man
