Lyrics Brick + Mortar – Rich Man
Text:
I could be a rich man
Living on the west coast
But that ain’t me
Seventeen to twenty three
Taking anything I need
And then the truth
It brings me down
Down on my knees
I’m begging you please
This life ain’t for me
In time the truth it brings me down
It brings me down
Living on the east coast
Fighting for my fill of the stars
Not forgetting who I was
This is why I hate that
Dumber than I thought I was
Time keeps bringing me down
Wishing I could turn it around
And then the truth it brings me down
Down on my knees
I’m begging you please
This life ain’t for me
In time the truth it brings me down
It brings me down
I’ll tell you
I never thought
I could be
A God damn thing
Down, down on my knees
I’m begging you, begging
I’m begging please
This life ain’t for me
And it brings me down
‘Cause I learned to steal
When you learned to breathe
‘Cause life, it ain’t free
And it brings me down
Down, the future is real
So choose who to be
‘Cause life it ain’t free
In time the truth will bring you
Down, down on your knees
You’re begging them please
This life ain’t for me
In time, the truth, it brings you down
It brings you down
Oh, it can try
I’ll tell you
You never know
You could be everything
So now please feel more real
