Lyrics to Wealthy

[Chorus]

I just wanted to be wealthy

And for somebody to tell me that they felt me, yeah

One of the most relatable lines from Jay-Z, I swear



[Verse 1]

Yeah, just be yourself and you'll probably make it farther than you thought

Nowadays I'm pulling up in a Porsche

A Bentley, or something else that you can't even afford

But it's cool 'cause we just got this off the hard work, damn

And the gas is getting lit up

They say Strick you done turned up and everything lit up

The chain and the wrist yeah, the ears and my bitch yeah

Everything going to the ceiling, hold up

You ain't a killer, who you killing?

Nigga, that ain't a riddle, that's just me being realer

Being broke was already hard enough

Damn that's why we going harder now



[Chorus]

I just wanted to be wealthy

And for somebody to tell me that they felt me, yeah

One of the most relatable lines from Jay-Z, I swear



[Verse 2]

Damn, I'm tryna make a million every year

And multiply that for the years that I ain't here, yeah

Somebody tell me that they feel me

I'm 'bout to call my jeweler, praying that the ice won't melt

It's getting hot outside, I think a war's going on

They tryna kill my vibe, I hear it over the phone

I think them niggas choosing sides, I hope they don't choose wrong

Hope they don't choose wrong, yeah

Lighting Backwoods up

Ain't fearing nothing but falling off and going broke

Once you make it out the gutter man you can do it all

And I'd still love the game even if it didn't love me

Every moment's priceless, the dice still rolling, yeah

I been chosen, yeah

I think they know it, yeah

I see they know it, oh

Tellin' her that we can make it right

But tonight might not be the night, I gotta catch another flight, damn



[Chorus]

I just wanted to be wealthy

And for somebody to tell me that they felt me, yeah

That's one of the most relatable lines from Jay-Z, I swear



[Verse 3]

Yeah, going platinum still wasn't enough, yeah

Need more dollars, I need some more in the cut

You know them princess cuts, you know that VVS

You know my girl want a clutch, you know that YSL



[Chorus]

I just wanted to be wealthy

And for somebody to tell me that they felt me, yeah

One of the most relatable lines from Jay-Z, I swear



[Verse 4]

It's a hard knock life when you're trying, don't ever give up

We heard word that they out here lying, tryna be you

I been fighting in the den with them lions but now we equal, huh

Bar after bar, like the chain gang

Star after star, let my chain swing

But it's still sweet to see my niggas shine in the moonlight

The moonlight



[Chorus]

I just wanted to be wealthy

And for somebody to tell me that they felt me, yeah

One of the most relatable lines from Jay-Z, I swear
