It was perhaps the most anticipated track off of G-Eazy’s new When It’s Dark Out album. The official release came with the pre-order of the album, but G-Eazy first performed the song at South by Southwest (SXSW) in 2015. G also gave a sneak-peek of the song in the trailer for When It’s Dark Out.
There’s an unreleased verse to this track that is used as a substitute for the second verse when G performs it live.

G-Eazy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Told the world I need everything and some, yeah
Two girls that's a tandem
She gon' do all it for me when them bands come
Got it all, yeah, I'm young, rich, and handsome
Uh, this shit is not random
Everybody ain't got it, understand son, yeah
This shit is not random
It's my world and I do what I like to
I know she gon' be ready when I slide through
If you forgot I got it, I'll remind you
'Cause I got what they got I am talking times two
Disagree with me and you've been lied to
I am nothing like you, and no I'm not the type to
Follow bullshit y'all give the hype to
I can see the fakes, so when I look in your direction
Understand I'm seeing right through
You're hollow, you follow
Everybody's not the real McCoy
Worldwide, yeah, they feel the boy
California out to Georgia, Florida then up to Illinois
When I listen to your music I just feel annoyed
Haters, I don't understand them
Bred Jordan Ones from two thousand and one (OG)
Today I think I want a Phantom
If I don't get it I'ma throw a fucking tantrum, woah
This is the anthem
Told the world I need everything and some, yeah
Two girls that's a tandem
She gon' do it all for me when them bands come
Got it all, yeah, I'm young, rich, and handsome
This shit is not random (nope)
Everybody ain't got it, understand, son, yeah (sorry)
This shit is not random
Now imagine it, put the hours in and stay passionate
Wasn't blowing money, I was stacking it
Figured what the fuck I want to do in life and practiced it
Pay attention, none of this is happening by accident
Listen, I don't slack a bit
Game plan solid, no cracks in it
Said I want a billion now nothing less is adequate
Grab and check, cashing it
I was born addicted to the money
Difference is now if finally found a way to manage it
What you think I'm paid for nothing?
You must be mistaken someone
I had to go make that fund and I'm trying to be great at something
Spend not saving nothing
Flying from the bay to London
They say that money talks but you're not saying nothing
Now try and shade me, I'm like I guess
Why yes, you drive a Toyota, please define flex
Sign CDs and I sign breasts
Understand, to these female fans, I'm sex
Listen
This is the anthem
Told the world I need everything and some, yeah
Two girls that's a tandem
She gon' do it all for me when them bands come
I got it all, yeah, I'm young, rich, and handsome
This shit is not random
Everybody ain't got it, understand, son, yeah
This shit is not random

Bred Jordan Ones from two thousand and one (OG)
I own a rare and valuable pair of Air Jordan shoes from 2001
Today I think I want a Phantom
I am thinking about buying a Rolls-Royce Phantom luxury car
If I don't get it I'ma throw a fucking tantrum, woah
If I can't afford the car, I'll be very upset and will throw a tantrum
Now imagine it, put the hours in and stay passionate
If you want to achieve your dreams, you have to work hard and maintain your enthusiasm
Wasn't blowing money, I was stacking it
I didn't waste my money, I saved it for my future goals
Figured what the fuck I want to do in life and practiced it
I knew exactly what I wanted to do and I worked hard to become successful in it
Pay attention, none of this is happening by accident
My success is not a coincidence or luck, it's the result of my efforts and dedication
Listen, I don't slack a bit
I never take it easy or relax, I always put in the effort
Game plan solid, no cracks in it
My plan to succeed is solid and there are no flaws or weaknesses
Said I want a billion now nothing less is adequate
My ultimate goal is to become a billionaire, nothing less will satisfy me
Grab and check, cashing it
I am making money and cashing in my profits
I was born addicted to the money
I have always been driven by the desire for money and success
Difference is now if finally found a way to manage it
Now I have learned how to handle my wealth properly, instead of wasting it
What you think I'm paid for nothing?
Do you think I am successful for no reason? There is a lot of hard work behind it
You must be mistaken someone
You are wrong about me, I am not just lucky
I had to go make that fund and I'm trying to be great at something
I worked hard to earn my money and I am always striving to be better at what I do
Spend not saving nothing
I don't waste my money, I save it for my future goals
Flying from the bay to London
I am always on the move, traveling from place to place for my work
They say that money talks but you're not saying nothing
Money can't buy class or intelligence, and you lack both
Now try and shade me, I'm like I guess
If you try to insult me, I don't really care, it doesn't affect me
Why yes, you drive a Toyota, please define flex
You think you're cool for owning a Toyota? That's not impressive
Sign CDs and I sign breasts
Some of my female fans are attracted to me and I sign their breasts
Understand, to these female fans, I'm sex
Some of my female fans find me attractive and sexy
