Powers Pleasant
Two Commas (American Dream)
[Intro]
Yeah, aw yeah, uh
One comma, two commas, three commas, four
How many commas more (Do we need to be happy?)
Bohan (Do we need to be happy?)
Powers (Do we need to be happy?)
They gon' feel it on this one baby (Do we need to be happy?)
(That's right, look) Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
I had to learn English when I first came to this country (Uh)
They told me, "First, know the language then you get the money" (That's right)
I guess I was never good with grammar, punctuations (No)
But I know one thing for sure (What?), two commas make a million (Woo)
One, two, two commas make a million (What?)
One, two, two commas make a mill' (Uh)
I guess I was never good with grammar, punctuations (Yeah)
But I know one thing for sure, two commas make a million

[Verse 1]
Yeah, all I wanted was to make a million (Make a million)
All I dreamed of is to make a killing (Make a killing)
Max can vouch for this, even Paul was a witness (Word)
Some used to laugh at this, but they all was some bitches (Some bitches, man)
Mr. Reid from Newton North’s really did it (Shoutout to him)
Got me rapping in a gospel choir, risky business (Dear Lord)
Plus I’m Chinese, just imagine all their faces (Ha)
I got 'em saying, "Ni hao", before they said their graces (Ni hao)
We all go through phases in this life shit (That's right)
When I was younger, I just wanted to be nice with it (That's right)
But now, I’m thinking about the commas that could come with the right hooks and features
So I write hooks and hoping that it speaks to you (Please)
Thank God for what these speakers do (Thank God)
But even if all I had was a loudspeaker (Uh)
You can bet that I’ll speak up (Yeah), forever I’ll reach up (Yeah)
The lessons for life is something they don’t teach ya, no, no
[Chorus]
I had to learn English when I first came to this country (Uh)
They told me, "First, know the language then you get the money" (That's right)
I guess I was never good with grammar, punctuations (No)
But I know one thing for sure (What?), two commas make a million (Woo)
One, two, two commas make a million (What?)
One, two, two commas make a mill' (Uh)
I guess I was never good with grammar, punctuations (Yeah)
But I know one thing for sure, two commas make a million

[Verse 2]
Damn, I guess it’s the world I'm living in (Talk to 'em)
White America, who the hell I’m kidding, man? (You know)
No matter how well I adapt to this place (Huh)
All they ever see is the color of my face (Damn)
Oh, you feel under-represented? Huh, too bad, go back to China (Go back)
Who told you to come here anyways? You not invited (Yeah)
A lot of my people stay low-key, they quiet (Quiet, man)
They just wanna get by, but fuck that, I want a riot (Riot, man)
I need one comma, two commas, three commas, four
My mama asked me, "Son, how many commas more
Do you need to feel validated? You gon' drive yourself crazy
Long as you alive and healthy, you know you already made it" (Word)
Yeah I hear you mama (I do), you making perfect sense (Yup)
But I wanna make them dollars, it's the curse of men
So much money that you set for life
So much money that they treat you like you white
[Chorus]
I had to learn English when I first came to this country (Uh)
They told me, "First, know the language then you get the money" (That's right)
I guess I was never good with grammar, punctuations (No)
But I know one thing for sure (What?), two commas make a million
One, two, two commas make a million (What?)
One, two, two commas make a mill' (Uh)

But I know one thing for sure, two commas make a million
