Childish Gambino
A Boy And His Microphone
Life is truly beautiful, I'm blessed in everyway
It was 2 years ago, I said let's go to Cash America today
Then laid eyes on the perfect microphone, 6 dollars for layaway, it truly lit up my soul
I was searching for equipment, so I could fulfill my purpose
Mac was six hundred, I saw it was truly worth it
Shopping at these stores ever since the age of 4, now I can spread my message every time I hit record
Every second they give me, I'm spreading positivity
In this world that loves slow, but we destroy with agility
Keyboard and MPC, I only needed 40
Now I can play these keys while I'm telling my story
Such a blessing knowing value of money in adolescence
Every single song always brought me suggestions
And every single deal always taught me a lesson
18, broke college kid with only dreams
And money doesn't grow on trees
But Cash America gave this boy a microphone, and that's the only thing I need
