I like to be a creative artist
I like to draw pictures of Chicago
I also like to play my solo keyboard music
I also like to sing with my Fiasco band as well

I hate being broke
I hate being broke
I hate being broke
I hate being broke

I like to record my rock songs
I like to make CD's of my music
I also like to sell a certain amount of CD’s to record stores
At least I don't sell stolen goods and rob currency exchanges

I hate being broke
I hate being broke
I hate being broke
I hate being broke

I'm going for the gusto
I’m proud of myself for being a rock star
I'm proud of myself for doing my artwork
At least I'm not a violent person

I hate being broke
I hate being broke
I hate being broke
I hate being broke

Rock over London, rock on Chicago
Amico, you expect more from a leader
