Empty Cup
Lungz Lyrics

Gourmet treats in expensive tray
I have all these nice things and luxuries, but somehow I'm still not satisfied.

I try to stop but I know I can't
I'm addicted to the lifestyle and the things that come with it.

The room is spinning I'mma need some space
I'm overwhelmed and need some time to myself to figure things out.

I should've been there but I'm probably late
I'm aware that I'm not living up to my full potential and sometimes let people down.

My mom always say learn to be great
My mother always encourages me to strive for greatness and be my best self.

Niggas don't hate like how much you make
People tend to judge you based on how much money and success you have, rather than who you are as a person.

Some niggas is real, some niggas is fake
There are genuine people in my life, but there are also those who are only around for personal gain.

Wait, I bow my head to pray
Despite everything, I still believe in a higher power and take time to pray for guidance.

For that root of evil 'cause it feeds you like I need you
Money is often referred to as the root of all evil because it can consume you and control your life.

I still pray to God, tell me how that coincide
I struggle to reconcile my beliefs in God with my desire for material wealth and success.

It's hard as fuck, I'm on the block with that Sharon Stone
Life is tough and I'm out here grinding, taking risks and trying to make it like Sharon Stone's character in Casino.

They trap all night 'cause they can't go come
People are out here hustling because they feel like they have no other options.

Boy dead and gone for a case of Perignon
People are literally dying over material possessions and status symbols like a fancy bottle of champagne.

If I die, meet me at my funeral
If I were to die, I'd want my loved ones to come together and celebrate my life.

Chipping black hearse, row girls
I envision a luxurious funeral procession with beautiful women mourning my passing.

And you know that that roof gonna be chopped off
The car I ride in during my funeral procession will have a convertible top or be open to the sky.

'Cause really I'm too cold for this
Deep down, I know I'm special and meant for greatness.

So get me what I'm supposed to get
I'm determined to reach my goals and get what I deserve in life.

And I don't know nobody shit
I'm self-made and don't owe anyone anything.

This ain't what I'm offering
This is my reality, but it's not all I have to offer as an artist and a person.

Said I play this rap, they love me then, they gonna hate me now
I've experienced success and love from fans, but I know it can be fleeting and people can turn on you just as quickly.

Look at the look on my face
My facial expression says it all - I'm not here to play games.

They look away, can't even look at my face
Some people are intimidated by me and can't handle the intensity I bring.

Niggas ain't sick till there's more on my plate
People only want to be around me when I have something to offer them or when I'm successful.

They can't get away, they running away
People can't handle the pressure and often run from the responsibility and expectations that come with success.

Got a real bitch that don't dream
I have a down-to-earth and loyal woman in my life who supports me and doesn't care about material things.

Ex girls and my old dreams
I've moved on from past relationships and aspirations that no longer serve me.

I stray cook, she a dope fiend
I'm out here hustling and making money, while my girl struggles with addiction.

We riding dirty, sipping codeine
We're living life on the edge, breaking the law and indulging in dangerous habits.

Hard gettings with exotic seas
I'm experiencing some difficult times, despite all the luxurious trips and experiences I've had.

Loose cash and hard liquor
I have money to burn and enjoy drinking to excess.

I'm doing me, fuck y'all niggas
I'm living my life for myself and don't care what anyone thinks or says about me.

I was born in it, I know I ain't from the hardest block
I come from a place of struggle and know what it's like to work hard and overcome obstacles, but I'm aware that others have had it even tougher than me.

But it taught a lot
My upbringing and experiences have shaped me into the person I am today and taught me valuable lessons.

The neighbors watched and they talk a lot
People like to gossip and judge others, even when they don't know the full story.

DT post in the parking lot
Police are on the lookout and patrolling the area, making it harder for people to hustle and get by.

I know you love it but I never stop
People are drawn to the lifestyle and the money, but even when the hustle gets tough, I don't quit.

Flashes up for my real niggas, toast up for my real bitches
I'm celebrating the genuine and loyal people in my life who have been there for me through thick and thin.

Middle fingers to them fuck niggas
I have no time or patience for the fake people in my life who only want to use me for their own gain.

'Cause I don't really trust niggas
I'm cautious and protective with who I let into my inner circle.

You said I sold my soul for greed
Some people accuse me of compromising my morals and values for the sake of money and success.

I probably won't believe you
I know who I am and what I stand for, and won't let someone else's opinions change that.

You don't see through what I see through
You don't have the same perspective or experiences as me, and therefore can't truly understand where I'm coming from.

You say you don't but you need to
You may not think you need to understand or empathize with me, but in reality, it's important to try and see things from someone else's point of view.

Brought windshield on my vehicle
My car is customized and luxurious, with a special windshield to protect me from the elements.

Cruise control, don't lose control
I'm in control of my life and my actions, and won't let anyone or anything steer me off course.

I ride along, windows up with that music up
I enjoy cruising and listening to loud music with the windows up, lost in my own thoughts and feelings.

In my zone
I'm focused and locked in on my goals and ambitions.

I just hope they bring my niggas home
I have friends and loved ones who are incarcerated or otherwise separated from me, and I hope they are released or reunited with me soon.

Cross over to where the grass is green
I'm striving to break free from my current circumstances and reach a place of prosperity and success.

Money's good, champagne big
I'm enjoying the perks of success, with money to spend and access to luxurious things like expensive champagne.

And I never give a fuck what y'all think
I'm confident in myself and my abilities, and don't care about anyone else's opinions or judgments.

Nightmares with drained girls
I have bad dreams and negative experiences with women in my life who are addicted to drugs or drained from the lifestyle.

I'm so far from my dream world
Despite my success, I'm still not living the life I truly want and dream of.

I'm too drunk but I won't earl
I may be intoxicated, but I won't let it affect me negatively or make me lose control.

Get a whole fifth fore that train kill me
I'll drink as much as I want, even if it's harmful or potentially deadly.

I'mma ride out till my cup empty
I'll keep going until I can't anymore, living life to the fullest and not holding back.
