Let me tell you a story about a boy named Jimmy

One years old than his first words were my, my gimme

Two years old, he was walking, three years old, walking quickly

Four years old, he was running around the pavements of his city

Five years old, and his daddy told him

Listen here son, you've got to learn to be a man

A man he works for what he wants

Six years old, and he's reading, writing, top of the bunch

And when he's seven, his progression made him student number one

Eight years old and he's praised for unusual grades

Nine, his parents pay for private school to nurture the flame

10, 11, 12, 13, he ascends and ascends, his daddy tells him, son, money is the means to all ends

14 solving complex mathematic equations, at 15, IQ 150, still elevating

16 he develops complex software code that detects weaknesses in cyber security protocol

17, and he sells his vision, keeping the share, not yet an adult

But he's practically a millionaire

18, and his daddy tells him now you're a man the world don't give a damn about you

So take all that you can

19, he turns a profit, stocks and shares, invest in product

20, double down deposit 21, his income rockets

22, he learns that truth is just an obstacle to wealth

If you manipulate the data, then the lie will sell itself

23,a life of luxury Cristal and c**e

24, he makes the Forbes list, they're applauding his name

25, and his daddy told him, listen here, son

While you're sitting in the palace, that don't mean that you won

26, his business shifts, he switches business to arms

He's 27, dealing nuclear shells in Iran

28, inside the Senate, money bought him a seat

He's 29, roll of counsel in the president suite

And now he's 30, his daddy says, you're losing the race

You're just a servant to the king, not even in second place

31, a big manoeuvre for his daddy's approval

Moving imports over borders from the exports out of Cuba

32, moving grams, growing kilo to tonnes

He's 33, filling warehouses with powder and guns

34, turf war with nobody to stop it, blind eye from the Popo inside of his pocket

35, he gets a call, I'm sorry, son, it's your father, had a heart attack, I'm sorry, he's gone

36, getting pissed up abusing this product

37, eyes glazed, disposition demonic

38, with a p**e, a moment of passion

Heating up the silver spoon and then chasing the dragon

39, getting reckless and hungry for power

Daddy's words still driving him to kill him and devour

He makes a move against the cartel, but the strategy's flawed

They retaliate and leave him in the hospital ward

A bullet buried in his vertebrae, one in his leg, the doctor sighs and says

I don't think he'll be walking again f**k

Let me tell you a story about a boy named Jimmy

He was 40 and he cursed the words my, my gimme

41, he wasn't walking, 42, not walking quickly

43, never running round the pavement of his city

44 inside a palace with a mountain of gold

But those riches turn to rubble when perspective evolves

Weighing heavy on his conscience is the value of gold, Lamborghini for a life

Trading money for souls, Jimmy followed the code inside the land of the free

Put your hand inside the cookie jar, take more than you need

And his example is exaggerated versions of me, and it's a version of him

And it's a version of she, and it's a version of you

There's no escaping the blame, the way we live, it's parasitic, f**k the money in fame

Cut the music

This isn't entertainment, this is real life, the way we live is lunacy, community it declines

We're hyperpolarized, we're always fighting and we divide

Truth is less important than the money that we design?

Money's an invention, politics from our invention, they all come from people's ideas

Did I mention bored is an invention

Law and order fuels the tension that leads to people killing each other

My solution?

Everything is subject to change, we could build utopias

If individuals were taught to use their brains

If we teach kids in schools to always be sheep and put themselves before the herd

If there's more money for meat

Then there's no future I see where the humans survive

We're parasites inside the Petri dish, with cannibal mines

Mould will grow upon the surface, then consumes till it dies

And our fate could be the same without this story to the wise

45, Jimmy comes home out of the rain, soaking wet upon a wheelchair

He's been drinking again, he has everything he wants, he has fortune and fame

Such a fortunate fool with an unfortunate fate with a 45 calibre aimed at his brain

45, a fitting number because his age is the same

Here's the words of his father, it's such a damn shame

Then he presses on the trigger of a money game
