lirik lagu ej laflare - .the glitter/the gold
{part 1: the glitter}
{intro}
all that glitters is not gold
all that glitters is not gold
nah gold is not reality
{verse 1}
i want it all, no lie
all these chances go by
and all i ever do is watch them as i sit below tide
tryna escape my old life
where no one knows i exist
except for all these scrubs and low~life’s
seeking change
shooting way above my range
n~ggas called me strange
said that i was never finding fame
well look twice
this is what successful looks like
everyone’s in love with things that look nice
{hook 1}
i just want the glitter
all i want’s the glitter
a verify on twitter
an italian outfitter
and i don’t wanna sound bitter
but fame is not a giver
before i k!ll my liver
and before i die and wither
baby, i just want the glitter
all i want’s the glitter
{verse 2}
uh
this sh~t is serious
i am not delirious
this is what the f~ck i want
point blank period
and all these people said i’d fail
i’ve had it up to here with it
that’s my car on that long road to fame, and i’m who’s steering it
veering it past these haters and debaters
they don’t get no attention
not even a mention
you can’t stop my ascension
i’d die before i let them win
no more feeling lesser than
whatever it takes to make my records spin
{hook 2}
because i just want the glitter
nothing but the glitter
try to give me a sliver
imma fight for something bigger
and i may not be a winner
but i’ve never been a quitter
i am my own man
while all these babies need a sitter
baby, i just want the glitter
i just want the glitter
{verse 3}
uh
don’t tell me that i won’t blow
there ain’t places i won’t go
you don’t know
there’s a lot of people that don’t show
that’s why i know i deserve this
i was put here for a purpose
to experience the good life and show you why this sh~t is worth it
i want everything that they got
to be everything that they’re not
i gotta be that next one up
cause there’s a chance that person may not live up to the role
there’s a chance that i can have it all?
then i’m sold
and they say everything that glitters isn’t gold, ha
{part 2: the gold}
all that glitters is not
gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold
{hook}
i want it all, but i can’t have it
{beach house}
i want it all, but i can’t have it
{verse 4}
i want it all, no lie
staring out the window, watching days go by
i said i wasn’t worried, but that’s definitely a lie
cause in fifteen minutes, things can go awry
cause i could lose everything, before i even get it
sh~t i could lose everything, without even winning
i could accept all of the fame and all the demons with it
but what’s the point of getting everything if there’s no giving?
so am i even willing to try and sacrifice
if i’m not guaranteed i’ll even have a better life?
because despite all of the dreams being sold
i know that everything that glitters isn’t gold
but i want it all
{hook}
i want it all, but i can’t have it
{beach house}
i want it all, but i can’t have it
{verse 5}
i wish i could pretend it’s even worth the risk
all the things that i would miss
doesn’t even represent
all the things i really want
should i even flip the switch?
should i give my heart if i know that it could leave a stitch?
my feelings are mixed
i’ll admit
i’m not that convinced
i’m just tryna find a solution i know will make some sense
cause what good am i if all my ideas are condensed?
then i get thrown into these lights and cameras
it’s intense
i don’t wanna let this fame sh~t change me
let me be in the game while remaining the same me
people really seem to relate to me lately
so to jeopardize it for some money?
that would be crazy
but still, i can feel something pull me down the path
as hard as i try, it’s like i can’t escape the grasp
although, despite all of the lies being told
i know everything that glitters isn’t gold
but i want it all
{hook}
i want it all, but i can’t have it
{beach house}
i want it all, but i can’t have it
