"Real Success" by The Monologist.
------------------------
🎶 Lyrics:
They told me success was a mansion and wheels,
A life that’s all polished and luxury feels.
But I saw the cracks in the gold-plated cage,
Smiles on the ‘Gram but they're drowning in rage.
We chasing illusions, the mirrors, the smoke,
The brands on our chest, yeah, we wearin’ a joke.
Flashy cars parked in a debt-laced lane,
But ain't nobody asking, “You okay?” just, “Dang.”
I’ve seen ‘em climb high just to fall off the roof,
Big house, no love, yeah I’m speakin’ the truth.
They got what they wanted, now wishin’ they didn’t,
Cause purpose was missin’ the whole time they’re winnin’.
You measure a man by the heart, not the chains,
Not the house, not the ride, not the fortune or fame.
If you ain't got peace, what you really got?
All that luxury fades when your soul just rots.
We live for applause, but we dying inside,
Got a million in the bank but alone every night.
Nah, I don’t want that life, I want what’s true,
Success is the joy when I'm livin' my view.
Yeah, I see 'em flex online, that’s rented,
Broke inside but the image? Cemented.
Keepin’ up just to burn out the flame,
Chasing labels that just play the game.
If my neighbor buys a Benz, that’s fine,
But I ain’t gonna wreck my peace just to shine.
Rather have love, real talk, real friends,
Than a Rolex tickin' while my patience ends.
They don't teach worth in the schools we attend,
Just how to compete, not how to mend.
Tell me why Edhi gave more than a mogul?
Why a man with less had a mission so noble?
It’s not the cash, it's the legacy left,
The truth you speak and the hearts you’ve blessed.
You measure a man by the heart, not the chains,
Not the house, not the ride, not the fortune or fame.
If you ain't got peace, what you really got?All that luxury fades when your soul just rots.
We live for applause, but we dying inside,
Got a million in the bank but alone every night.
Nah, I don’t want that life, I want what’s true,
Success is the joy when I'm livin' my view.
Don’t need your approval, I’m not in a race,
I’ll build my success at a slower pace.
A righteous friend, a place I call home,
A heart that’s content, I’m already grown.
The Prophet spoke wisdom we still can't decode,
But I’ll carry those words as I walk this road.
