Why do you let us shoot one another just for the dollar?
Did you lose your heart in the darkness deep in your pocket?
No, I don't care of the price I pay
I don't wanna spend my life that way
Tell me is it pain that you're causin' worth what you profit?
[Witt Lowry]
Yeah!
They say that money don't buy happiness, just beautiful things
But I wouldn't mind the extra time and piece of mind that it brings
I wouldn't mind if I could afford a sea in the spring
And for the heat and the winnin', I'd be in bitter but they live like kings
And here we are in one bedroom we could barely afford
Hang your sheets up on the walls, just to mimic the doors
Can barely afford to pay for a Ford, why you pay for your Porsche?
See, where I'm from nobody makes it to Forbes
And I'm so tired of this dead-end job
While I was workin' last night, my fuckin' car got robbed
There's glass everywhere, I'm searchin' for the things I lost, all the things I bought
You steal from me just to cut your cost
My mum swept her whole life just to get me a life to live
So I spilled my fuckin' soul and gave everything I could give
I think we can agree that Sallie Mae is a bitch
And there's gotta be more to life then this
Why do you let us—

Why do you let us shoot one another just for the dollar?
Did you lose your heart in the darkness deep in your pocket?
No, I don't care of the price I pay
I don't wanna spend my life that way
Tell me is it pain that you're causin' worth what you profit?
[Witt Lowry]
Yeah!
Another day, another bill, barely hatin' how I feel
Need a tax refund just to buy a fuckin' meal
Your follows on your socials' essential for signin' deals
Man, it's crazy how a fake affects a room full of real
My boss told me, "Turn tables," I told 'em tables would turn
When I'm laughin' at what I'm makin', a day is more than you earn
The way they start to laugh like the mention that is absurd
But they never focus at vision, the vision focus is blurred
And they think I'm out of my mind, or ahead of my time
Or I'm the one that grinds and puts himself on the line
To learn how to win, you have to lose a hundred times
Honestly, I think that losin' is better than not tryin'
They say, "Make money, don't let the money make you"
The question is, what if it's the only thing to save you?
Would you sell your soul for a price if they paid you?
Or would you keep it real and stay you?
Why do you let us—

[Witt Lowry, Dia Frampton]
Yeah! I know that money don't buy happiness, but buys you more material shit
Then rewordin' how I'm thinkin' what it means to be rich
I used to think you meant to flex a Rolex on my wrist
Feels bad to take more than you give
Lately, hate how we live
I never wanted become the face that I hate
While the man in the mirror will laugh and spit in my face
They tell me that the money has made me another fake
I've been drownin' in my mind and my money's been adding weight
Oh Lord, oh Lord, please save me
I should have known that somethin' man-made couldn't make me
I say I'm makin' music, or is music what creates me?
I never have an answer, Satan questioned every day
See, when we pass on, all I think is I passed on to the next
Everything we didn't do is everything we regret
Everyday we fuckin' work for this worthless cheque (Why do you let us shoot one another just for the dollar?)
If you're not happy you're forever in debt, yeah
Forever in debt
