I Wanna Sell Drugs Lyrics

[Verse 1]
See, all I got is a dream and a laptop that's full of beats
And I did them shits myself, I'd trade em for something to eat
Or at least find something to exchange
Cause I just want the finer things and my rent ain't cheap

Tryna dig to the deepest depths of my soul
Just to find another way to make a dollar I can hold
That can hold me to next month, or my shit might get repo'd

Paying back these loans, now I'm a slave to these people
I skipped out on college just to chase my passion
But this music shit is shady and got my family askin'
If I just made the right choice or did I just make the right move
If this music shit don't work out, man, tell me what you gon' do
Take a class, go to school or join the military?
Man, this is life, and the failure feels hereditary
And I'm not going back to books and fucking budgetin'
Cause I ain't got no scholarships and I ain't gon' owe the government


[Hook]
Keep rolling (we rolling)
Sometimes I just wanna sell drugs

[Verse 2]
Wishing I was the heir to some wealth
Sitting in this chair, feeling like I'm feeling myself
If I could make some off my life, then I would sell my health
But I'm tryna make off life in the stories I tell
I give you scriptures from the heart, but y'all just see the cover
So I rip that shit apart, these niggas changed my common sense
I'm a con with confidence, tryna be the 'complishments
Uh, and that's real, yo, passion of a king, ruling Zion
Gotta feed my heart to lions just to stop me
You just watch me, I'm not sloppy, man, I'm
Paying my dues, and that's what make me feel
Like I just ain't got shit to lose, man
I'm not a gangsta but I hang with different crews
Tryna fill the place of greats but we wear different shoes; I wear my own
I'm not a junkie or a thug, I wanna do what I love
Makes me wanna sell drugs

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
