G-Eazy - Purple Brick Road lyrics

[Hook] Forever ? Money or the fame Well I had scars, it's who we are It's who we are [Verse 1: Raekwon] Purple ? on me salute my presence DNA is worth a fortune but I've still seen a life of peasants I gave y'all style taugh you how to be fly Go 'head and grace the sky Gave you wings to soar like you oughta Forever may not exist in the flesh but my music will All praises due to the most high When my ? shocked the world Wasn't casper when I said I came through ? Just because I'm living this life I'm accustomed to it Floatin' in them fly cars damn I'm supposed to do it Pretty women fall in love with my expensive taste, luxury, lust Physical touch by this ace, handcuff 'em That's a no no 'cause I don't trust them as far as I can throw though Gold diggin' vixens who's in love with the coco But f** it, you know I'm here for this dough though Let's pop another bottle of dawn and watch our gross grow I love it [Hook] Forever ? Money or the fame Well I had scars, it's who we are It's who we are [Verse 2: Raekwon] Clarity, stones in my bracelets, watches and rings From a rich n***a's perspective you know what that brings Hatred, what am I supposed to do when I'm so used to sh**tin' on 'em Do I stop because a jealous a** coward wants me to Or do I go harder and buy more diamonds and blind his crew f** it, I guess I do that 'cause I love to make em blue Gettin' 'em back stayin' fly, stayin' high Do what I wanna, no more strugglin' just to get by Yes, fresher than a new born baby's a** New money, got my ex wishin' she was never in my past I laugh, enjoy these fruits from my labor But still feel the strain and pain that be from my labor Spent my time to achieve all of the fortune and fame And for myself makin' a name But deep inside I try to cover up scars to be a shinin' star I guess that's just who we are [Hook] Forever ? Money or the fame Well I had scars, it's who we are It's who we are [Verse 3: G-Eazy] Forever may not exist but who else is as hot as this I played the beat then I tried at this Cuban links on my neck and I just put a presidential on my wrist This year you haters gonna acknowledge this It's G-Rapo and Raekwon Told the homies this wouldn't take long My verses always just as real as a true story it's based on Chopped the blow on the table plenty times In the lines that she puts her face on And this is not by accident Anything can happen if you simply imagine it My OG put a torch to the blunt and he's pa**in' it Believe in something, stand for it, or take a knee and stand like Kaepernick Anything to get the point across makin' a statement You'll only go as far as you take it 20 years later and we're still slappin' that purple tape sh** Greatness so close I can taste it, face it [Hook] Forever ? Money or the fame Well I had scars, it's who we are It's who we are
