Changed 4 Dollars

[Chorus]
Changed 4 dollars, changed for a bag
Used to be broke, now I’m breaking the tags
Had to lose sleep just to lose that past
World turned cold, so I turned back savage
Changed 4 dollars, changed for the win
Heart got numb when the checks came in
They love that shine, but they ain’t my kin
Price on my soul, had to tax that sin (yeah)
[Verse 1]
I was eatin’ ramen, now it’s real plates
Same old block, but I switch states
Friends turned ghost when the bills came
Funny how they vanish when you build change
Mama said, “Pray,” I said, “I’m on go”
Devil in my DMs, tryna book shows
Tatted up pain that you can’t screenshot
Had to cut ties, leave ‘em all screenshot
Went from “who that?” to they scream my name
Now they throw shade ‘cause the check insane
If it ain’t fam, keep it arms length
Love get you killed, but the cash gave strength (fuck)
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
I don’t trust smiles, only read eyes
Everybody talk, but the bread lies
They want clout, I want land, that’s facts
Turned my last L to a down payment stack
Used to wanna fit, now I stand out
Same ones hate wanna hold hands now (hell nah)
Dark thoughts lurk in a new wrist watch
Time heals shit, but the scars still talk
Yeah I leveled up, but the cost came heavy
Car seat empty, ain’t shit petty
If I gotta lose me just to please y’all
I’d rather die broke than be your guard dog
[Chorus]

rap, Moody trap banger with eerie reversed bells, detuned keys, and a sliding sub. Chorus explodes with stacked, melodic male vocals and wide reverb; verses ride in a tighter pocket with dry vocal, crisp hats, and snappy snare. Beat breathes between lines for head-nod space, then swells into epic, layered hook with ad-libs and octave doubles., hip hop, world, smooth
