Shattered Lyrics by CHUN

The Average Life of CHUN

2023

[Verse]
WAKE UP
Lemme snap you back to reality
Those dreams are cute
But Jonathan you know they childish
Happily ever after?
You wild if you think that'd actually manifest
I pray you don't cosign that manifestation bull-ish
You foolish if you think you think you can speak your dreams into the universe
You think persistence will build your dreams?
I agree mediocrity makes a mockery of greatness
But this game ain't a meritocracy
It's not about the product as much as it's bout the marketing
You disagree?
Well, let's check your stats
You've been at this since 2015 and spent well over 1500 Washington's for a return of $70 dollars
Most of your songs don't crack 1,000 streams
You only havе 470 Instagram followers
You ain't even on TikTok
Ah, can you acknowlеdge the truth?
Numbers on the spreadsheet don't lie
You do not excel
Don't try to deny the proof
Oh, well
You might as well shoot for that other stupid dream
You had when you were 5
When you wished to be in the NBA
The odds are about the same as making it in music
Near impossible
Yeah, technology has given you a thousand more tools
But millions of more obstacles too
Cause' everybody and they mama wanna rap like you
The market ain’t optimal
CHUN, you’re music will never be profitable
Don’t you know a thing or two about that as a business major?
Oh, I forgot, you don’t pay attention in class
And turn in last-minute papers
Praying professor will play the savior
And save your grade with a curve, thank him for the favor
CHUN, you not a victim, you’re the perpetrator
Instead of fantasizing about Mia 24/7
You should apply your mind to studying for tests
Man, Mia probably don’t even like you
She got her priorities right, her standards high
She definitely a solid 10
But you a solid two
Get used to solitude
He gon’ be your best friend when your old and fragile
In your rocking chair playing solitaire
You know you’re an awkward dude
And even though you try to convince yourself it ain’t wrong
You know it’s an issue
Cause' what’s gon' happen when you at the business meeting With those execs you wanna impress and you start stuttering Missing key details, forgetting what they just said
Cause' you nervous out your mind
Give em’ a weak, sweaty handshake at the end
They might get offended and say
“We regret to inform you that our answer ain’t yes”
Now you lost a critical deal and the boss calls you to his office with a slip
Tells you “Jonathan, I’m sorry, but today’s your last shift”
Now how are you gon' provide for your kids?
It’s only you cause' your wife dipped
Since you were never home
Don’t tell me it’s not possible, that divorce rate at 50%
You say you wanna be the G.O.A.T, but you know that’s bull
My advice to you?
Burn your dreams, reality is not a fool
I’m just being real with you, you know where you stand
You just a common, regular, comfortable, generic, average man
