A Thousand Thousands - Big Cats, Ryan Kopperud, Eric Mayson

If I make a million dollars, I’ma give it away

And my mom and pop, what they deserve to be paid

I tell my girl and my sister, everything’s okay

Take it slow, I know we only get today

If I make a million dollars, I’ma give it away

And my mom and pop, what they deserve to be paid

I tell my girl and my sister, everything’s okay

Take it slow, I know we only get today

Look, I know enough to know that I don’t know enough

Barely got a couple bucks, I’m nothin' close to grown up

Still, steerin' this wreck, holdin' a broken clutch

And hopin' we make it home before the sun comes up

Rockin' a lotta problms, lookin' for ways to solve ‘em

They ain’t moving fast enough, then we gon' beat the breaks off ‘em

It’s a world o' worry, doctor hop me on some Klonopin

If struggle builds character, shit, I’ma have a lot of it

At 19, I saw my grandfather gasping

Certain seein' the fam have it all would ease the passin'

Music in my heart, but I ain’t never had a passion

Like setting my people straight, and providing it when they’re askin'

I done, paid the toll, paid the piper, paid the tax

Been spending it all fast, just hoping to make it back

I can’t relax, but one day they’ll see

I wanted every last penny, never wanted it for me

If I make a million dollars, I’ma give it away

And my mom and pop, what they deserve to be paid

I tell my girl and my sister, everything’s okay

Take it slow, I know we only get today

If I make a million dollars, I’ma give it away

And my mom and pop, what they deserve to be paid

I tell my girl and my sister, everything’s okay

Take it slow, I know we only get today

This ain’t no Robin Hood, Goodie-Two-Shoes

Tryna climb outta debt, find myself a little room

If I could have zero dollars, I’d be over the moon

But I’m still broke as a joke, and they keep yelling «Too soon!»

And frankly I’m outta money, the joke ain’t all that funny

And I ain’t work this fuckin' hard to let somebody take it from me

Rolling out some patience, twisting up some hope

Sucking down a pain killer, I got gravel in my throat

Stay makin' plans, double fistin' beer cans

Livin' for the weekend, chillin' with my weird friends

Like I’m high these days, on a ride these days

Reflect on best nights, and my mind replays

My city finally looks me in my eyes these days

I guess I’m getting recognized for all the tithes I’ve paid

No end to the week, elbow grease over beats

No sleep for hustlers, daydreaming of peace

If I make a million dollars, I’ma give it away

And my mom and pop, what they deserve to be paid

I tell my girl and my sister, everything’s okay

Take it slow, I know we only get today

If I make a million dollars, I’ma give it away

And my mom and pop, what they deserve to be paid

I tell my girl and my sister, everything’s okay

Take it slow, I know we only get today

I mostly sorta both, they ask asleep or awake

And mostly sorta broke, paralyzed by what’s at stake

You’d be surprised by what it takes to get some eyes on what you make

Debatin' if it’s worth it, or how many tries it’ll take

Call me a pall bearer, swear to God I’m gonna carry it

Brown liquor, brown bag, skeletons get buried in

Celebrating life, looking back at the abyss

Statement too scared to make, or date you were scared to miss

Job you were scared to take, or girl you were scared to kiss

But we been doing this for more than free drinks and sweet lips

Seek meaning from speakin', realizing our gifts

And our worth ain’t in our wallets, it’s gotta be more than this

Dimming down the lights, fighting for every wink

Tryna find time to dream, nobody taught me not to think

I won’t sleep till I’ve taken care of everyone I love

Just hoping for leftovers, buy a polar bear rug

If I make a million dollars, I’m gonna give it away

I’m gonna give it away

If I make a million dollars, I’m gonna give it away

I’m gonna give it away, away

If I make a million dollars, I’m gonna give it away

Said I’m gonna give it away, away

Well if I, If I make a million dollars, well I’m gonna give it away

I’m gonna give it away

Said I’m gonna give it away
