(Chorus) I’m shopping every day1
Just to take the pain away (x2)
Ahh ahh ahhhhh
They tryna take my love, love, love2
Ahh ahh ahhhhh
They took apart my love love love
(Verse 1:) If I just got my heart broken
Then I’ll be shopping ‘til the card frozen
I get further when I’m high rolling3
Than when I’m scraping past the far shoulder
Speaking of I feel like five shoulders
All with chips and bricks stacking up to high boulders
Moving mountains didn’t get a lick of God closer4
Or if it did she in disguise and this what I told her
(Verse 2): Who I need? Jesus
While I’m up the street creeping
I’m popping tag and receipt keeping
Momma told me life ain’t fair it never be even 5
I got a bargain, ten dollars for like three pieces
Today I went to four stores only got two thangs
They ain’t have shell toes, I’m classic with the shoe game
Feeling like
This is a new pain 6
I don’t really got words but I got two rangs
Two chains, new wig like a toupé*
Outro:
If I just got my heart broken
Then I’ll be shopping ‘til the card frozen x3
My heart broken x3
My heart broke.

(Chorus:) Running up the clearance1
I just copped some earrings
It ain't bout appearance2
It’s about that inner feeling
I be waking with my head in a daze3
I be going back to bed on a wave (x2)
(Verse 1:) Wow wow this here really go wild4
Got me searching for it like im pushing down the aisle 5
They just want us poor so we never crack a smile6
But I be cracking up cause I was poor as a child7
Been there done that8
New life - run that9
Show me to the line so I can push it like a thumb tack10
Living like a lion
I be table turnin’ tumblin’
Praises to my future
Gaining in the hundreds
(Chorus)
(Verse 2:)
Agents of alienation 11
nation of the aliens pacing
Circles around the equator
Pay for your life with your paper12
Once you do that ya mistaken13
Matrix for meeting your maker
I spend my nights w creation14
Sleep is my second love later
Peeping a secular savior15
Jesus im feeling them fainting
Weep in a Tesla, taker16
Nikola never done claim ya
Came in shook em got em lit
Like a thunder porch17
All my ladies throw a fit18
Like it’s of their sport
So I give hat a tilt19
And my shoulders warm
So a legacy is built20
Go and pass the torch
