Walking past the homeless in a RolexJust got off the stage on the Today Show and I basically felt soullessYears go by and I keep saying I’m gon’ use my phone lessBut I should just be phone-lessIgnorance is bliss and so is being underground ’cause it was fun when we were known lessSorry, that’s cliché, I know I’m so blessedBut Jason keeps on telling me “Say yes” and truth be told, I know he knows bestBut I don’t wanna do no press

Wonder, oh why this ever had to be?So many losing hope in those dreams that they
