Elon Musk
They said a song will never get you to mars
What are you doin' (singing, playing, writing, making)
They said you need to get a job, drive a car
What are you doin?
Are we yesteryear's poets
Tomorrow's coal miners
Today's engineer
[That] pretend to be smarter
All I know is what I am doin
I'm proving...
This one's for Brooklyn
Where it got started
Eating cold chili
[while] watching Departed
Saw my own breath
When i woke up in Bushwick
Didn't have heat cuz
[The] landlords were crooked
Recently single
[Began] swiping on tinder
Saving up dollars for dates and their dinners
All i know is what i am doing
Sticking my art to the man that I am
Abandoning skills that are in high demand
If you won't choose happiness nobody can
Sticking it to the boss man
[Well I] got a new job,
Apartment, and woman
Made a few friends
Though I said that I wouldn't
Going through motions
Raises, promotions
Drinking more coffee
Than water in oceans
Couldn't produce the ideas in my head
So i learned to code and built the tech
But you know, all i know is what i am doing
Sticking my art to the man that I am
Abandoning skills that are in high demand
If you won't choose happiness nobody can
Sticking it to the boss man
I'm not saying the game's not worth playing
But you don't lose by leaving you lose by staying in
Profit, spaceships, innovation
Will never comfort or fix your relationships
Write an anthem to seal your commitment
Chase dreams or die wishing
I'll stick to songs
I'll stick to love
I'll reject pain of not knowing what
I am capable of
Sticking my art to the man that I am
Abandoning skills that are in high demand
If you won't choose happiness nobody can
Sticking it to the boss man
What are you doin' (singing, playing, writing, making)
They said you need to get a job, drive a car
What are you doin?
Are we yesteryear's poets
Tomorrow's coal miners
Today's engineer
[That] pretend to be smarter
All I know is what I am doin
I'm proving...
This one's for Brooklyn
