This track was inspired by Lil Dicky's Save Dat Money and has an homage to that song as well.
lyrics
When you got nothing to flex not even a ride
Getting monthly paychecks and cash all up on the side
Doin odd jobs to get them Js and all of that purple haze
You gotta find a way to work as hard as you wanna play
Make that shit work fake it til you make it
That lil dicky shit, learn how he made it
Got a Lambo in my garage with a big booty hoe
Nah I don't but I'm sure as shit gonna rap about it tho
Cause rappers went from nothing to something talking about the dreams that they frontin
This shit can't be that hard and I think I like who I'm becoming
No Keyshawn we don't rock Gucci Louis fendi or Prada
Brand labels don't mean jack shit if you don't have a dolla
Do your job do what you gotta do to make that money
Hypebeats burn that cash so fast it's not even funny
Imma show you what to do. Hold on to that debit card.
It's easy I promise it ain't even that hard
Chorus:
We gon fake it til we make it
We gon drive it til we break it
Blowout sales we gon take it
Pedal to the floor no breakin
Taking shots of vodka (BARK)
Generic brand no top shelf (BARK)
Not fucking up no commas (BARK)
The civic to a Honda (BARK)
Getting what you wand should never be easy this isn't random
It takes fuckin effort to become young rich and handsome
Don't buy resale preme shit don't pop no Molly
Bape bape bape bape bape just find that shit on Ali
Man put down that codeine Sit down and hit this blunt
Don't get high just to prove a point and just to stunt
Put down that Rolex you don't even know how to tell time
I really gotta break this shit down like a fuckin enzyme
Don't spend two thousand dollars on a fuckin pair of kicks
That kinda money should be saved and spent on a whip
Fake it till you make it you know that's the motto, say it
Fake it till you make it I hope you win the lotto, pray it
It ain't about winning, it ain't bout the haters yo
As long as i make it, I know I'll be greater tho
Chorus:
We gon fake it til we make it
We gon drive it til we break it
Blowout sales we gon take it
Pedal to the floor no breakin
