Thousand Words

Uh

They say a picture's worth a thousand words

You paint a canvas, better let it shine huh

I know I done some things that's dead wrong huh

The flash is on this little light of mine yeah

They say a picture's worth a thousand words

You paint a canvas, better let it shine, huh

I know I done some things that's dead wrong uh

The flash is on this little light of mine, yeah

Uh, a picture's worth a thousand words a video worth a million

But no amount of likes can heal up all this pain that I'm feeling

Maybe conceal it, and hide in all these problems we deal with

I grew up on the principle, to raise a child, need a village

I think we all wanna be a little Instagram famous

Deep down inside, nobody really wanna be nameless

Cordae - Thousand Words - Afraid of being forgotten, so this troll shit, we plottin'

Sittin' on this phone for hours, feel my brain getting rotten

Cordae - Thousand Words - But I can give a **** less, dawg, a b***h is poppin'

Cordae - Thousand Words - All these b*****s that's flockin', shit, a nigga got options

But what's really important is such a silly distortion

We all stuck in this matrix, tryna hide our misfortunes

They say a picture's worth a thousand words

You paint a canvas, better let it shine, huh

I know I done some things that's dead wrong, huh

The flash is on this little light of mine, yeah

They say a picture's worth a thousand words

You paint a canvas, better let it shine, huh

I know I done some things that's dead wrong, uh

The flash is on this little light of mine, yeah

Uh, living in this false reality that's in this picture gallery

Cordae - Thousand Words - Based on a nigga's profile, we guessin' salary

The lifestyle you advertise was quite strategized

Make a minimal amount and then we maximize

Cordae - Thousand Words - These niggas cappin' with lives how they capitalize

Creating they own perceptions, what a massive facade

Digital marketing schemes even broader regime

Live how you want on the internet, who thought of this thing?

Cordae - Thousand Words - I mean, I guess it ain't the worst shit, if life was picture perfect

Who could paint a picture vivid as media circus?

The surface is much deeper than even the Earth is

I searched it, lookin' for purpose like my first kiss

Cordae - Thousand Words - At the same time this shit will have you feeling worthless

Back into reality, woke up and just reversed it

Now I'm a new man, even got a new 'Gram

But let me take a picture with this money by my new Lam'

They say a picture's worth a thousand words

You paint a canvas, better let it shine, huh

I know I done some things that's dead wrong, huh

The flash is on this little light of mine, yeah

They say a picture's worth a thousand words

You paint a canvas, better let it shine, huh

I know I done some things that's dead wrong, uh

The flash is on this little light of mine, yeah
