At What Price (feat. Maria) - Danny Saucedo (丹尼·索斯多)[00:00:00]
She was a former associate of mine we both had similar dreams of[00:00:06]
Using our music as means to make us larger than life[00:00:10]
Her life was like she lived on her own not much attention at home[00:00:13]
She dated this thug from around the way homeboy was sittin' on chrome[00:00:16]
Now shorty could sing[00:00:18]
This much is true but who gave her permission to use[00:00:19]
The people that she called friend time and time again[00:00:22]
My phone would only ring when she needed me most give me some tracks[00:00:25]
I'd never hear back long after the fact using D swain for personal gain[00:00:27]
Now every time I'd try to push her away she'd pull the relationship card[00:00:30]
Good gracious I hardly know you don't you have a man you're devoted to[00:00:33]
Pretended to like me to get inside the inner circle I made[00:00:37]
Whatever it takes to make it I guess[00:00:39]
I seen this sh*t comin' a mile away[00:00:41]
So I cut her off and I watched her go flutter off[00:00:43]
I had my own mind and she hated that[00:00:46]
But she was too busy to care her ego was gettin' inflated back[00:00:47]
To back shows around the town she started creatin' a name for herself[00:00:50]
Kept dissin' her friends and that's when the ceiling fell in[00:00:52]
Never forget where you came never forsake all your friends if fame[00:00:56]
Should stray in your lane never use someone to get in the game[00:00:59]
Oh I know you want success and yes there is a cost[00:01:02]
But lost relationships and actin' fake'll make you sick[00:01:05]
N now the lesson she never learned is your bridges should never burn[00:01:08]
And the people you see on the way to the top are the same[00:01:11]
That you'll see at the end of your term[00:01:13]
Now I know it's been a minute since we've talked on the phone uh[00:01:15]
But I'll bet she's probably sittin' at home and she's probably singin'[00:01:17]
Shouldn't have cost me that much to be happy[00:01:21]
To be free[00:01:28]
To be me[00:01:30]
Shouldn't have cost me that much to be happy[00:01:33]
To be free[00:01:39]
To be me[00:01:42]
Livin' amuck not givin' a f**k[00:01:46]
'Bout anyone else except herself[00:01:47]
Expected herself to be much further along than she was[00:01:48]
But she was complacent with the attention[00:01:51]
That she was gettin' she never got it before[00:01:53]
Her friends had been givin' attention[00:01:55]
Support of course unfortunately not anymore[00:01:56]
She pushed ''em away the more she became a local celebrity[00:01:58]
But she didn't know it was all that she'd ever be[00:02:00]
It takes a lot more to get in the door[00:02:02]
The lime of the light had blinded her sight[00:02:04]
So she couldn't see that the people[00:02:06]
She treated like dirt had gone on to do much bigger[00:02:07]
Much better things[00:02:09]
Now several years passed look at my a**[00:02:10]
Finally got my name to pop[00:02:12]
I'm famous doc the premise of charm has finally come to life[00:02:13]
But never got caught up in hype[00:02:16]
Hopped on a flight to visit the city I earned my stripes[00:02:17]
Stepped into a lounge I frequented when I was young[00:02:20]
And honey was still on the mic[00:02:21]
She stayed in the city to sing never achieving her dream[00:02:23]
Of using her music as means to make her larger than life[00:02:25]
'Cause karma came back at her twice[00:02:27]
She was a former associate of mine we both had similar dreams[00:02:29]
But nobody cares walked out of the club before she realized I was there yeah[00:02:32]
She never felt more alive than when she was on the stage[00:02:35]
But she never realized the reason her friends had all gone away[00:02:38]
I know that she was selfish she couldn't help it[00:02:41]
If only she took control of her fate before it became too late[00:02:43]
Maybe then she'd have been concerned with not letting her bridges burn[00:02:47]
'Cause the people she saw on the way to the top[00:02:50]
Were still at the bottom awaiting their turn damn[00:02:52]
It's been a minute since we talked on the phone[00:02:54]
But now I know she's probably sittin' at home[00:02:56]
Every night just singin'[00:02:58]
Shouldn't have cost me that much to be happy[00:03:00]
To be free to be free[00:03:06]
To be me to be me[00:03:08]
Shouldn't have cost me that much to be happy[00:03:12]
To be free to be free[00:03:18]
To be me[00:03:21]
Shouldn't have cost me that much to be happy[00:04:58]
To be free[00:05:05]
To be happy[00:05:13]
To be me[00:05:17]
