Royalty Free Lyrics by Markus

Royalty Free

2018

[Verse 1]
Wish that you was me
Eyes filled with jealousy so it must be
Running through the mud to the top
Now I’m climbing up the ladder and I just can’t stop yuh
I was building the name
You just sitting on the sideline watching the game
It takes more than an hour to rack up the fame
And I call myself Noah cuz I throw down the shame
King status, no apparatus
Moms listen to the mixtape, wish they had us
How you gonna beat the baddest
When they all just pretending that they had this
I’m the fucking maddest
You just trying to see what sticks
Passed out face full of dicks yuh
And the brains all bricks
Out of touch and bloated like the Ross of all Ricks

[Chorus]
I was always told that things have a price
Life is a cone with no ice
And no added flavors
No cash-in favors
Bought yourself a house now comply with the neighbors
I guess there’s always a fee
If you don’t pay cash you can’t live royally
But it’s all about spending if you’re discounting me
Since I broke the cycle, did this royalty free

[Verse 2]
They act like I owe em
Asking cash or credit
I want to see this shit up front
Like a debit
I get it
You looking for my interest to grow
So I can pay you back like I’m in the know
But I promise your pandering falls on dead ears
I’m too busy just sitting and writing these lyrics
Man they wish they had this
And wish they could add this to their resume
Ay
They was just saying that I am the villain
Got your revenge and you love how it’s feeling
But it’s from the heart
I tried to play it smart it ripped me apart
I’m just too prophetic
It’s just so poetic
He’s yelling esketit
There was no aesthetic
It was so pathetic
All your vibes synthetic
Said I was too fucking loud
Man what was that shit about?
I put it up on SoundCloud
Now my friends are streaming
But the mic was bad
They laugh while I’m dreaming
About the next thing I can drop
Every next song a step up to the top
Driving around in control like a coup and I’m top of the troop and I’m not gonna flop

[Chorus]
I was always told that things have a price
Life is a cone with no ice
And no added flavors
No cash-in favors
Bought yourself a house now comply with the neighbors
I guess there’s always a fee
If you don’t pay cash you can’t live royally
But it’s all about spending if you’re discounting me
Since I broke the cycle, did this royalty free

[Verse 3]
Talking this time just to gloat
Closed my eyes and I’m starting to float
I bump this on the road
I’m not talking in code
I respect Navajo
I take too much shit
Why don’t you try to sit and just write all this down
Mix the perfect verb with each perfect noun
Then lose all that spirit when they listen and frown
I was just resenting
All the time I was spending
Doing everything else but working on beats
Or writing some bars, but I’m reading this piece
It's a crackdown like police
I’m doing the work and this just on the side
Brain cut short like I’m missing oxide
Couldn’t tell you my problem it was classified
But this all part of me like I’m Jekyll and Hyde

[Chorus]
I was always told that things have a price
Life is a cone with no ice
And no added flavors
No cash-in favors
Bought yourself a house now comply with the neighbors
I guess there’s always a fee
If you don’t pay cash you can’t live royally
But it’s all about spending if you’re discounting me
Since I broke the cycle, did this royalty free
