$11 in my Wallet

I'm eleven years old and I got enough vision and ambition to spare
I got everything in life just planned out in front of me
I'm gonna be a freaking millionaire
I'm gonna wear a fancy jacket
I'll be nice to the receptionist
I'll tip in dollar bills that don't exist (Yet)
You might look at me now
I don't know - but somehow
I'm gonna get there from what I started with
Oh - uh oh - oh

I'm gonna be a big shot someday
Then Imma be ha-a-appy
I'll do whatever it takes, I'm gonna get there
I'm gonna get there, yeah
And if you want, you can come along with me
It kinda feels like we're living in a daydream
I really want to get there, but for now I only got
Eleven dollars in my wallet

I'm a couple years older
And I'm feeling like my life is really getting on track
And I'm still just as ambitious, I'm a genie for my wishes
Started down this road, I'm never going back
Cause if I make more money, you'll laugh and think I'm funny
And we'll feel like we're deeper in love
Cause everybody knows, a life made of gold
Is shinier and easier and fun
Oh - uh oh - oh

I'm gonna be a big shot someday
Then Imma be ha-a-appy
I'll do whatever it takes, I'm gonna get there
I'm gonna get there, yeah
And if you want, you can come along with me
It kinda feels like we're living in a daydream
I really want to get there, but for now I only got
Eleven dollars in my wallet

I'm eighty-six and I became the stars I shot for
But I wounded way too many hearts along the way
All of my empty houses I could never trade for
Just one more chance to see your beautiful face
And I can't help but hear a boy on the street
And he's singing his songs, and he looks a lot like me
And he says

I'm gonna be a big shot someday
Then Imma be ha-a-appy
I'll do whatever it takes, I'm gonna get there
I'm gonna get there, yeah
And if you want, you can come along with me
It kinda feels like we're living in a daydream
I really want to get there, but for now I only got
Eleven dollars in my wallet
