paper savior

eli.

the days

they pass me all at once

what felt like only yesterday was really 7 months

lots of things have changed and i am struggling to breathe

i pray the money change my life

but pray the money don't change me

yeah

i know who i am and who i wanna be

nothing's what i thought it was

the irony

no one's who i thought they were

they playin' me

they playin' me

yeah

i know who i am and who i'm gonna be

nothing ever stays the same

the irony

no one's who i thought they were

they lied to me

they all lied to me

money's nice but money ain't saving me

look in my eyes - do i look like i'm any more happy?

oh

a couple sheets of paper

oh

money ain't your savior

money's nice but money ain't saving me

look in my eyes - do i look like i'm any more happy?

oh

a couple sheets of paper

oh

money ain't your savior

so this is what it's like to be rich?

everything they said was true

money ain't shit

suffering is relative

relative to perspective

i still have my struggles despite everything i've wished

yeah

i know who i am and who i wanna be

nothing's what i thought it was

the irony

no one's who i thought they were

they playin' me

they playin' me

yeah

i know who i am and who i'm gonna be

nothing ever stays the same

the irony

no one's who i thought they were

they lied to me

they all lied to me

money's nice but money ain't saving me

look in my eyes - do i look like i'm any more happy?

oh

a couple sheets of paper

oh

money ain't your savior

money's nice but money ain't saving me

look in my eyes - do i look like i'm any more happy?

oh

a couple sheets of paper

oh

money ain't your savior
