Price Tag (Feat. B.o.B.)

Seems like everybody's got a price
I wonder how they sleep at night
When the tale comes first
And the truth comes second
Just stop for a minute and Smile
Why is everybody so serious
Acting so damn mysterious
You got your shades on your eyes
And your heels so high
That you can't even have a good time
Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that
Well pay them with love tonight
It's not about the
money money money
We don't need your
money money money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the Price Tag
Ain't about the ha
Cha Ching Cha Ching
Aint about the yeah
Ba Bling Ba Bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the Price Tag
We need to take it back in time
When music made us all UNITE
And it wasn't low
blows and video Hoes
Am I the only one gettin' tired
Why is everybody so obsessed
Money can't buy us happiness
Can we all slow down
and enjoy right now
Guarantee we'll be feelin
All right

Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that
Well pay them with love tonight
It's not about the
money money money
We don't need your
money money money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the Price Tag
Ain't about the ha
Cha Ching Cha Ching
Aint about the yeah
Ba Bling Ba Bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the Price Tag
Yeah yeah

and take the cash back
just give me six streams
and a half stack
and you can keep the cars
leave me the garage
and all I
yes all I need are keys and guitars
and guess what in 30 seconds
I'm leaving to Mars

these undefeatable odds

so we fight and sacrifice everynight
so we aint gon stumble
and fall never
waiting to see
a sign of defeat uh uh
so we gon keep everyone
moving their feet
so bring back the beat
and everybody sing

I really don't understand why this song is X-rated.


It's true, the lyrics are a little cliche.
But I like how they made this cliche content
into a song that doesn't look like it, and that it's gotten into One 2011 summer album.


This song made me think of some of the friends around me who are so adapted to this world where you've got to hide your true feelings acting like an 'ideal' person and hold your secrets and emotion as much as possible to survive, and where you've got to act 'normally', copying everybody else around you.

A lot of my friends do this, and I feel this immense hatred toward them whenever they do. They act like they care, like they're so kind, like they're so cool people, but I can easily see what they're thinking inside. 
For some people, it's really easy to tell, while for a lot of them, it's hard to tell until you really get to know them.
Every time I see them wearing a fake smile, pretending, I tell myself,


I will NEVER become one of them.
Never.


And one thing I wanted to tell everybody all the time,
please, be yourself.
