Smiles or checks. Lyrics by Lee Ji

2021

[Chorus: Daniel Jikal]
Success isn't measured by smiles and checks
If the world is yours then why would you give it to them
If you switch the course then maybe I'll top what we spent
Finding out my core working on the things that progress
I set the record straight when it comes to the trends
The world is slow when they talking bout the things that they care
The way we roll got us teaching that we can't be ahead
That's why you know all my thoughts even after I'm dead
[Verse One: Daniel Jikal]
They keep me buzzin like it's Hennessey[?]
Too busy writing all my thoughts trying to complete
Picked up the pen and wrote this song in order to be
They keep meditating a lot while overseas
Yeah
Cause I just vibin, ridin, on my own
So bitch, please, leave me alone
Cause I've been living by myself in my wealth
Got me putting all my shit aside, ego on the shelf
People wonder what my life is like, Triple what yourself
So I'm living with g-force, yeah, without any help
So imma stay, yes sir imma stay, yeah
[Chorus: Daniel Jikal, Justin Shin]
Success isn't measured by smiles and checks
If the world is yours then why would you give it to them
If you switch the course then maybe I'll top what we spent
Finding out my core working on the things that progress
I set the record straight when it comes to the trends
The world is slow when they talking 'bout the things that they care
The way we roll got us teachin that we can't be ahead
That's why you know all my thoughts even after I'm dead
[Verse Two: Justin Shin]
Back in middle school scared to break the rules
No clues as of to what to do years later I was confused and
I started to find tunes on YouTube all these rappers seemed so cool
Then a few became my muse and
That's when I started practicing how to write in my room
Secretly so that nobody else could hear my groove
5 years later now I'm on the move
I gotta go show and prove it I'm never going to lose now
Coming for the top imma take the new crown
Never gonna stop till I see a huge crowd
My dilemma you've never been in my shoes, wow
Music video director, rapper, I got to choose now
Wait whoa, my future's limitless
Anybody disagreeing tell me where my limit is Oh, yeah, look at my images
Making my bigger picture like visuals by Justin Shin, yeah
(Bitch where the beat go?)
[Verse Three: Daniel Jikal]
I am the best
I keep on going without a contest
Too many commas that come from my check
I keep on counting while they keep revising
Got too many [?] not talking' bout [?]
I'm keep on vibin just keepin it low
Got too many people that wanna be close
So bitch call me Luke[?] cause I'm keepin it cool
And I'm runnin I'm runnin I'm coming in slow (slow, slow)
[Verse Four: Justin Shin]
Never coming in slow, man I'm ready to go
All these wannabe rappers they better catch you with my flow
Got me going supersonic with my phonic
You know soon I'll be iconic
Gotta run it till I'm chilling at my throne
Everybody got me looking like the best
In reality I'm simply just better than the rest
You know that you'll never be the reason for my stress
My God is good to me everyday I'm so blessed (so blessed)
