Trapped in Utopia

Whippin' the foreign, no keys in the dash. Money keep callin, I'm chasin' the bag
These diamonds so icy, they changin' the weather. I'm stuck in this life, I can't leave, no never
I fell in the trap, but I thought it was heaven. I'm runnin' these plays, I'm the king, I'm the legend
I'm stackin' these bricks, I ain't talkin' construction. You crossin' my path, then it's major destruction
Pushin' these packs like it's work on a line, but I'm locked in a world where the sun never shines

This Gucci, this Prada, they cover the pain, but all of this is luxury rot in my brain
I'm trapped in the system, no way to escape. They see the success, but don't feel all the weight
I'm ridin' these waves, but the water's too deep. I'm up in the clouds, but I ain't gettin' sleep
Money machines just be countin' my thoughts, but deep in my mind, man, I'm fightin' the loss

I'm ice to the core, but I'm burnin' inside. These diamonds can't cover the tears that I hide
Pockets be swole, but my soul feelin' empty. All of this shine, man, it's startin' to tempt me
Hustle for days, no time for reflection. My shadow keep lurkin, it's stalkin' my section
I'm movin' in circles, no sign of an exit

This Paradise look like a prison, no question. I'm dancin' with demons, they dressin' designer
But the price of this life got me losin' my mind. I thought I was winnin, but trapped in a dream
This kingdom ain't free, ain't good as it seem, yeah. Nah, for real

I'm chasin' these dreams, but they leadin' to hell. The harder I go, man, the harder I fail
I'm lacin' the Gucci, but losin' myself. I'm drownin' in riches, but cryin' for help
I'm swimmin' in diamonds, but drownin' in pressure. Caught in a cycle, it's pain and it's pleasure
They think it's a blessing, but really it's a curse. I'm lost in the money, but I'm feelin' worse
Runnin' the streets, but they runnin' me back. I keep buildin' an empire, I still feel like I lack

I'm high in the pent house, the view looking mean. But the higher I climb, the harder it seems
This cartier shine, but it can't buy my peace. I'm stuck in the game, but I just want relief
Made a deal with the devil, he dressed like a friend. Now I'm pushin' these businesses, but losin' my ends
I sacrafice my motherfuckin' life, nigga. Been doin' this shit for a long time

I'm posted on corners they say I'm the boss. But I'm locked in the grind where the lines always cross
I'm lookin' for light, but I'm lost in the shine. They see me on top and won't feel a decline
Countin' this bread, but my mind in a bind. I'm runnin' these blocks, but I'm takin' my time

The streets keep callin, I don't wanna hear it. I'm fightin' with the shadow, they messin' with my spirit
I'm trapped in a fantasy that gets so sweet, but it's buildin' a prison right under my feet
Man, I'm flexin' these M's, but they comin' with fear
And these diamonds ain't worth all these blood, sweat, and tears
The Benz, the Rolls, the Phantom, the Jet. They tell me I'm blessed, but it feel like a debt
I'm trapped in a trap, man I thought it was free, these streets ain't fair, It ain't what it seems nigga
