Money just changed everything, I wonder how life without it would go
From the concrete, who knew that a flower would grow?
Looking down from the top, and it's crowded below
My 15 minutes started an hour ago
Truth over fame, you know I respect the blatant shit
When I hear 'em talking, I just don't know what to make of it
Hate is so familiar to me, I'm slowly embracin' it
Doesn't come natural, bear with me, it could take a bit
Yeah, and my dreams are who I'm racing with
But you can see I'm pacin' it so that I'm always chasin' it
Wayne put me right here, that's who I get the paper with
I hope that my success never alters our relationship
Yeah, this life is something I would die for
October's Own, but it's looking like July four
I just wish they'd let you try it first
This time, I'm really goin' off, fireworks
Oh, today it begins
I've missed them before but won't miss them again
I keep having the same dream
And I think that I just realized what it means
All I see is fireworks, all I see is fireworks
Every night, it's fireworks, every night, it's fireworks
All I see is fireworks, all I see is fireworks
Takin' off like fireworks, takin' off like, oh
I'm just such a gentleman, you should give it up for me
Look at how I'm placing all my napkins and my cutlery
I could tell it wasn't love, I just thought you fucked with me
Who could've predicted Lucky Strike would have you stuck with me?
Damn, I kept my wits about me, luckily
What happened between us that night, it always seems to trouble me
Now all of a sudden, these gossip rags wanna cover me
And you making it seem that it happened that way because of me
But I was curious
And I'll never forget it, baby, what an experience
You could've been the one, but it wasn't that serious
There was smoke in the air before, that was me clearing it
That felt good, all in all, I learned a lesson from it, though
You never see it coming, you just get to see it go
Yeah, I should've looked up in the sky at first
Now I can see it in her eyes, fireworks
Oh, today it begins
I've missed them before but won't miss them again
I keep having the same dream
And I think that I just realized what it means
All I see is fireworks, all I see is fireworks
Every night, it's fireworks, every night, it's fireworks
All I see is fireworks, all I see is fireworks
Takin' off like fireworks, takin' off like, oh
Everything the same, but it feels different
My dad called me up, knowing that I still listen
And he's still got his foot out, guilt-tripping
It's been years, though, I just learned to deal with it
For real, me and my realtor, we built up a better rapport
Got my mother in a place with some better decor
She searched the entire city, I let her explore
And now she's saying she's more lonely than ever before
How many of our parents' marriages lasted?
I was only five, I bet I barely reacted
I'm flying back home for the Heritage Classic
Searching for that feeling, tell me, where is the magic?
Let's stay together 'til we're ghosts
I want to witness love, I never seen it close
Yeah, but I guess I gotta find it first
That's why I'm really goin' off, fireworks
Oh, today it begins
I've missed them before but won't miss them again
I keep having the same dream
And I think that I just realized what it means
All I see is fireworks, all I see is fireworks
Every night, it's fireworks, every night, it's fireworks
All I see is fireworks, all I see is fireworks
Takin' off like fireworks, takin' off like, oh
