All I Want
Viper 9 ft Matt Nash & R.I.O. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't say what you want to hear
I don't get what you mean
Read my lips and try to figure out
I don't get what you want
Drag me down to where we belong
And please, let go of what we don't know
Who am I to say? Who am I to judge?
Who am I to be right there?

We don't say the words but we mean the truth
I am here and you are there
Say - all you wanna say
Say - all you wanna say
Say - all you wanna say
Say - all you wanna say
Hear our beats echo loud and clear
Pounding and aching alone in the dark
Hold me closer - just this time
Hold me closer - just let me be
Hold me closer - just for today
Hold me closer - now
I will lay me down to rest
And I will hold it in, all that I wanna say, hold it in
You see right through the shield that I wear
We will fall back into the unknown
Who am I to say? Who am I to judge?
Who am I to be right there?
We don't say the words but we mean the truth.
I am here and you are there
Who are we to cry? Who are we to fight?
Are you there with you closest ally?
We don't say the words but we mean the truth.
Let me go or hold me closer
All i wanna say
Hold me closer - just this time
Hold me closer - just let me be
Hold me closer - just for today
I will lay me down to rest
And I will hold it in
all that I wanna say, hold it in
Who am I to say? Who am I to judge?
Who am I to be right there?
We don't say the words but we mean the truth
I am here and you are there
Who are we to cry? Who are we to fight?
Are you there with your closest ally?

We don't say the words but we mean the truth
Let me go or hold me closer

Acquiring wealth is preferable to having no money

You talking about like it ain’t about the money

Your words make you seem foolish

A house on the hill by the lake
I want to live in a lavish house on a slope and by the water

All real niggas can relate
People who came from similar backgrounds as me understand my desire for wealth

You tryna book me for free?
Are you trying to have me work without payment?

But my rent is due on today

A better life is what we’re after
Our goal is to achieve a better standard of living

Because every dream I gotta capture
I am determined to achieve every dream I have

I always knew that I would blow up one day
I always believed I would be successful

Like a nuclear reactor
My success is explosive and produces immense energy

From the cradle to a label
From my birth to my record label

From decatur to the majors to papers, no more neighbors
I moved from a small town to major cities and success, and I do not interact with neighbors anymore

I used to say I never cared about the money until I put food on my momma’s table
I previously claimed that money was not important until I provided for my family

Follow the trail
Follow the path to success

Could’ve been in jail
If I had made different choices, I could be in prison

The way that I live
My lifestyle

Could have been fatal
It could have led to my death

Must have had an angel
I must have had a guardian angel saving me

It’s funny how I’m always on the screen
It's amusing how I am consistently on television

But as a teen I never had cable
As a teenager, I did not have access to cable television

But now I won it all
Now I have everything I desired

The world, the ladies, the whips
I have acquired the entire world, women, and luxury cars

I took a fantasy and made it exist
I transformed a dream into reality

No one ever handed us shit
No one gave us anything for free

We took what we had and made it the shit
We used what we had and turned it into something great
