in the end - jack rootes lyrics

[hook * boy melody]

diamonds and fortune;
will it be worth it?
or should i stop and start over again?

it’s all that i’m after
a greedy disaster
what will be left of my soul in the end?

[verse 1 * jack rootes]

i used to say that money shouldn’t the main motive
to keep the work up, but now i’ve come to notice
whenever i rewind to my works like a tape deck
i find myself wanting nothing but a paycheck
i used to call it selfish, speaking like a hater
but maybe deep down, it’s just part of our human nature
i want to build my bank up, and be so embellished
but the last thing i wanna be is selfish

so if i did blow up, able to purchase what i can touch
will there be a point where i decide enough is enough?
or will i want more, gain a sense of cynicism
and drive out my friends with some narcissism?
it is worth it if i end up, after chasing my dreams
screaming “f*ck friends, i only need the greens!”
don’t know if i will handle it in large portions
i confess, at times, i want the diamonds and fortune
[hook * boy melody]

[verse 2 * jack rootes]

and what about the people that surround me?
all the people that when i rap are around me?
would they be around, to help with benevolence?
or would they just want me, for selfish benefits?
and what about those that say i rap splendidly
but really, they compliment me to hide their jealousy?
they could smile at me whenever i make my tracks
i turn around and they paint a target on my back

it happened to x, to 2pac and to biggie
it happened to pop smoke, could easily be me quickly
and what about other habits that i may pick up
like xans, lean, percs and other drugs i could kick up
if i became a drug addict, i’d feel disappointed
if i died while in my prime, would i be exploited?
while the fame sounds nice, i cannot just pretend
i gotta ask myself, will it be worth it in the end?

[hook * boy melody]

[outro * boy melody (jack rootes)]
diamonds and fortune
(will it be worth it in the end?)
mmm
(not even i know.)
what will be left of my soul in the end?
(yeah.)
