Rolls

Album: GUN

I got these dreams
they feel real
like I’m not sleepin’
There’s a change comin’
There’s a change comin’
I see me
baskin’ in light in front
of all this screamin’
There’s a change comin’
There’s a change comin’
And in magazines
I see me and in my eyes the war I fought to reach ‘em
And people ask and people ask and people ask
what makes you think all this ain’t just dreaming’?

Like how you gonna get all this?
Unless you spill some magic where your vision is
All I hear is wishin'
It can't be done
What makes you think you're different?


I won’t stop ‘till I
got a car, it’s a rolls
got a mink coat see me in the front row
I gotta new watch, it’s a rolls
both my cuff links 24 carat gold
I hand my
girl a bag full of rolls
hundred dollar bills
go ‘head and buy the world
Oh, I’ve been a beggar honey
and now I’m made of money
 
Oh, I’ve been every kind of man
on my way to one
I was told — if parts of you rotten
cut them all off, you’ll do best they’re forgotten
And people been saying I changed
since we were young
And I say, them just roles that I got in
This person you’ve known is one step, I ain’t stoppin’
I ain’t no stone, I don’t freeze in place
I’m more that roamin’ beast on the range
The meteor, not the setting sun
I come in a roar of light just this once
And people ask and people ask and people ask
Why can’t you stay, be a photograph?
 
I won’t stop ‘till I
got a car, it’s a rolls
got a mink coat see me in the front row
I gotta new watch, it’s a rolls
both my cuff links 24 carat gold
I hand my
girl a bag full of rolls
hundred dollar bills
go ‘head and buy the world
Oh, I’ve been a beggar honey
and now I’m made of money
 
One day I’ll be made of money
At night I lay awake and hum it
It’s like I hear a choir from the future
from a time where I spend a lifetime of loot
up in a day
in LA
on my lady

And I ain’t stop to talk unless you 
pay me with some rolls
rolls
with some rolls
I need some rolls
give me some rolls
hundred dollar rolls


Got a car, it’s a rolls
Got a mink coat see me in the front row
I gotta new watch, it’s a rolls
both my cuff links 24 carat gold
I hand my
girl a bag full of rolls
hundred dollar bills
go ‘head and buy the world
Oh, I’ve been a beggar honey
and now I’m made of money
