I Choose Lyrics by Sean Olivera

0

1st verse
So a lot of people out here, they be thinking they hot
Top shelf homie, they the cream of the crop
And everywhere they go they got a team in the spot
Yea they grillin, neva grinnin, yea they mean on the block
If you lookin at em wrong, it get em schemin to plot
And if you get to close, then they'll be cleanin ya clock
Neva feelin the love, so they feenin for props
Neva reachin above, so they dreamin of quap
And all the woman wanna be a queen on a yacht
And all the fellas wanna be the king of the dot
But when all you do is focus on the thing that your not
Then it's really hard to notice everything that ya got
Now I've neva been a hater, but I've seen it a lot
Like when you see a homie rollin in a clean drop top
Then the fellas gettin jealous, so they scream and they mock
And then, bah bah bah, another teen got shot
Chorus
Not everything that glitters is gold
Can't let myself loose grip on my soul
Surrounded by the madness of this world
I choose salvation over gems and pearls
...x2
2nd verse
Nah nah, shorty she did yeah she graduated
What what, finally finished yeah she navigated
But but, every loan yea she gone have to pay it
What what, can't pay her bill, what up congrafulations
So what's her thought process, she gone work out best
Wasn't any job placin, when she left out west
Now she stuck with a degree that really brought out stress
Cause it came with expectation that she sought out less
You know, now she gone have to put in work
Got her cousin doin dirt, so she gone call her with alert
Cousin told her she gone help her, but she got to take her shirt off
Every single night for all these men she got to wait wait wait wait
I know you won't let her date, and thinking oh that's the way
Bills like an amputee, it cost an arm and a leg
But trust there's another way, uh huh
Chorus
Not everything that glitters is gold
Can't let myself loose grip on my soul
Surrounded by the madness of this world
I choose salvation over gems and pearls
...x2
Bridge
Over gold.. of this world, over gems and pearls
His gold, oh my soul, of this world, over gems and pearls
Oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh, oh oh, ... x4
