Father vs. Son

Do you have any idea of what you've done?

The things you've lost when you think you've won?

What now, son? Because apparently inherently

When the going gets tough, the tough get up and run (it's not like that)

Are you aware of what you're doing?

Ruining your life and screwing yourself over

You were so close, my God, I taught you to pursue your goals

But then you choose this road, for what? Who knows?

You're stabbing me in the back

My money, time and sweat's in the trash

And I've been working my ass off every night 'til four in the morning

Just so you could have some food and a bed to snore in

I've been scrubbing floors since before you were born

To ensure that your future would never be torn

Every shirt you've ever worn, that's me

Every loss you've never mourned was free

All because of financial stability

The ability to facilitate your life

Open your eyes and wake up from this dream you've fantasized

Do you really wanna end up like me?

It's a hard life, can't you see?

When you're barely scraping minimum wage

And seldom make enough to eat (whoa, dad)

If for a second, you would listen and see

I'm too stressed doing medicine, this isn't for me

I feel imprisoned, not free

But music's the solution, every note releases dopamine

So, hopefully you'll roll with me (what?)

Using math and some studies on the brain

I can make the world smile while I'm earning a financial gain

I've created the perfect song, now check it

You'll be smiling in just a couple seconds

I am original, I am unique

I am nobody else but me

Sit back, relax and you'll see

If you open your mind, you can follow your dreams

I am original, I am unique

I am nobody else but me

Sit back, relax and you'll see

If you open your mind, you-

What would your mom say?

We promised we would never use mom against each other

Hold up that promise, you would never make the same mistakes as your mother
