I’m back from my sabbatical, and I return with new perspectives, new music but the same lofty goals. I hope you didn’t forget about me, I know the switch to more sporadic posts was a big decision, but its doing wonders for not only the overall quality of these recommendations, but my passion to write, as well as enjoyment of the music. Like, i woke up this morning and knew this was the song I wanted you all to hear.
Because of the extended amount of time Ive had to reflect & process the music and what it means to me I have attached to this song to such an extent that I had to share. I tend to think that all of the people who are hyper-focused on success have their own different reasons for it, and not to sound “better than”, but the reasons are usually vain or somewhat banal. My goal has always been to start one of those family tree’s that you hear about in the history books, have children that are born several tax brackets ahead of where I started in life whether they appreciate it or not.
Not saying I would make the same decisions he made, but in the context of this song you can start to understand Gunna’s priorities in life and how that leads him to handle his adversities in the ways that he has, to accomplish that goal he has in mind. Im going to assume the wealth he has right now isn’t enough to secure the type of future he wants for them, which is relatable. My babies are going to be born rich as well, thats all I work for at this point. How rich, I don’t know, but as far as me & Sergio Kitchens are involved, the sky is the limit.
Took my hard-earned and made a profit
Never had shit, so if I like it, I'ma cop it
Forgis on big body Benz, squattin', yeah
My D.R. mami call me Big Papi, yeah
You cool, but wait 'til when you really poppin'
Survivin' the spendin' addiction is not an option, yeah
Get so rich, it's only hurts your pockets
Live life, pay when you move, it feel like Monopoly, yeah
