Witt Lowry - Debt Lyrics

DIA FRAMPTON

Damn that hit hard

*lyrics*


Why do you let us hate one another just for the dollar?
Did you lose your heart in the darkness,  deep in your pocket?
No, I don't care of the price I'd pay
I don't wanna spend my life that way
Tell me is the pain that you're causin' worth what you profit?
Yeah, they say that money don't buy happiness, just beautiful things
But I wouldn't mind the extra time and piece of mind that it brings
I wouldn't mind if I could afford AC in the spring
Or for the heat in the winter,
not being bitter but they live like kings
And here we are in one bedroom we could barely afford
Hang your sheets up on the walls just to mimic the doors
Can barely afford to pay for a Ford, why you pay for your Porsche?
See, where I'm from nobody makes it to Forbes
And I'm so tired of this dead-end job
While I was workin' last night, my fuckin' car got robbed
There's glass everywhere, I'm searchin' for the things I lost
All the things I bought
You steal from me just to cut your cost
My mom's worked her whole life just to get me a life to live
So I spilled my fuckin' soul and gave everything I could give
I think we can agree that Sallie Mae is a bitch
And there's gotta be more to life than this
Why do you let us—
Why do you let us hate one another just for the dollar?
Did you lose your heart in the darkness, deep in your pocket?
No, I don't care of the price I'd pay
I don't wanna spend my life that way
Tell me is the pain that you're causin' worth what you profit?
Yeah, another day, another bill, lately hatin' how I feel
Need a tax refund just to buy a fuckin' meal
Your follows on your social's essential for signin' deals
Man, it's crazy how a fake affects a room full of real
My boss told me, "Turn tables, " I told him, "Tables will turn"
What I'm laughin' at: What I make in a day is more than you earn
The waiters start to laugh like to mention that is absurd
But they never focus their vision, their vision focus is blurred
And they think I'm out of my mind, or ahead of my time
Or I'm the one that grinds and puts himself on the line
To learn how to win, you have to lose a hundred times
Honestly, I think that losin' is better than not tryin'
They say, "Make money, don't let the money make you"
The question is, what if it's the only thing to save you?
Would you sell your soul for a price if they paid you?
Or would you keep it real and stay you?
Why do you let us—
Why do you let us hate one another just for the dollar?
Did you lose your heart in the darkness, deep in your pocket?
No, I don't care of the price I'd pay
I don't wanna spend my life that way
Tell me is the pain that you're causin' worth what you profit?
Yeah, I know that money don't buy
happiness, but buys you more material shit
Then rewordin' how I think and what it means to be rich
I used to think it meant to flex a Rolex on my wrist
Feels bad to take more than you give, lately, hate how we live
I never want become the face that I hate
When the man in the mirror will laugh and spit in my face
And tell me that the money has made me another fake
I've been drownin' in my mind and my money's been addin' weight
Oh Lord, oh Lord, please save me
I should have known that somethin' man-made couldn't make me
I say I'm makin' music, or is music what creates me?
I never have an answer, same question every day
See, when we pass on, all our things are passed on to the next
Everything we didn't do is everything we regret
Every day we fuckin' work for this worthless check
If you're not happy, you're forever in debt
You're forever in debt

OMG fireeeee!!!

What a great song!

Every song you write speaks to my soul. Dont ever quit doing what God intended you to do. There's no denying this is your gift. #teamwitt

I don't care about no damn money I never cared about money even when I made a bunch of money I still gave it away that's just who I am now I got a good plate of bitter over here and I'm asking if you're hungry that's it Askew wifey I cook the best meals

I totally understand this meaning no one understands that moeny not a cure love is !

god this man is so talented

This song is really touching. Keep doing this Witt

I think this is the song most people relate to in this album and it’s scary

People are worth more than all the money in the world

One of my favourite songs from the album, absolutely love that fucking hook! Rapping about debt is the opposite of what we hear nowadays. Amazing. 🔥

I’m a 20 year old rapper from the UK and if you love storytelling in rap, you’ll love my new mixtape, Capricorn.

I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Real in every word he speaks. I'm here for the things he says that keeps me from moving and alive.

"if you arent happy, you are forever in debt" Damn

I love this guy so much. No homo 😂😂😂

Why do I feel like FaZe Jev is gonna use this song in Forjever 4 if it ever releases?

Is There a Double LIKE Button Anywhere?!?!

TOO UNDERRATED!!!!

Some of the realest shit I’ve heard in a while keeping grinding brother u gonna make it one day

Mark do a song w NF plz >_<

Relatable, fire keep going man

This song low key caught me off guard. Great song🔥

yes witt i would sell my soul to escape this grind

2:57 *”OH LORD”* with a bass drop 🤭🧐🤔 hmmm I wonder he got that from

I told my friends that Witt Lowery and NF were my favorite artists and they didn’t know who they were.

Ya need new mates then 😂

Eduardo A fr😂

I liked , i subscribed, i commented...........coz this song kills me.

Waiting for what? Do you not see the million of views the man has lol.

You both killed it, that was epic! Can't wait for the video! Stay grinding stay blessed!

The words of this song hit like something I’ve never felt before. I know this pain. I watched my father become an alcoholic and spend his life drinking his life away. I saw the anger. I saw the hatred he felt. I vowed to never become that. I would never touch a bottle of booze. At 15, I started doing pills to cope with a lot of shit I saw my dad put my mom and myself through.. I quickly became an addict for the pills. 8 years later and I still can’t kick the habit. When Witt says, “Tell my mom I’m sorry.” I immediately tear up. Because I promised my mom that I would never become what my father is. And I broke that promise. Ugh.


Thank you, Mark. Thank you for putting what I feel into the words I’d never be able to find!

Ive been listening to Witt since I was 14,I'm 22 now, and I can honestly say he is the most underrated dope artist I've ever came across.

Besides K.A.A.N I should say K.A.A.N is easily the most underrated closely followed by witt

Just so you know Witt. The 45 or so dislikes... Just people who missed the thumbs up button. Atleast i did, just noticed anyways though. #corrected #ThumbsUp

Dude..Your concert in Denver was Amazing thx so much for it! Much love

Hardd🔥i really wanna see u in atlanta again, i saw ur i could not plan this show and met u ♥️

The worst part is when the chorus didnt play one more time after the 3rd verse and you kept hoping..😢

👍!👍!👍!👍!

OMG, I got tickets to see him in Denver and I was waiting to get the VIP upgrade for him because I wasn't sure if I was going to be in the country or if I would be in Costa Rica when he was here and I had planned on getting it later and I f*cking FORGOT to get the VIP upgrade! I am so f*cking sad, I have a dope ass gift for him and everything, he's my favorite rapper! Maybe I'm just gonna go and bring a couple extra hundred dollars to try and bribe my way into a last minute upgrade, the worst that could happen is that I can't and it's too late....

If you see this Witt, pleaaaasssseeeee sell at least ONE more VIP upgrade in Denver. I'll pay double since I waited til the last minute like a fricken' retard, but pleeeeaaaasssseeeee let me buy one more ticket so I can come stalk you at your show! Plus later it'll be helpful if we have a photo coz you'll be able to make copies like, "Yeah that's her, she's not to come within forty feet of me or anyone in my entourage..." while I'm like, "As soon as this BIG misunderstanding gets cleared up, I'm pretty sure they're going to lift the restraining order...I mean, I bet he has his people working on it right meow...he's probably so pissed, watch, maf*ckas are gonna lose their jobs over this sh*t, dude, he TOTALLY wanted me there, I could tell from the way he kept pointing at me to security..."

Another day another bill.... S/O from Zim🇿🇼. #AfriCulture✌

"Something man made cant make me"
Just.....damn.......thats that's real deep god I hope you are ok witt you're a badass

cyser for god and country
My point was
Everything that was created.
The things you named wasn’t made by anyone, they formed as result of being under the right circumstances.

@Bison god made them in my opinion and even if you don't believe in God that point falls through because if it wasn't created it wouldn't exist

cyser for god and country
That doesn’t make any sense, just because you believe it was created doesn’t mean it was created.
You can’t make a point out of your faith and think it’s valid.

@Bison if you had read I went on to explain that even without god your points don't make sense

cyser for god and country
My point is that there’s no god
You’re so fucking slow

Portland concert was so AWESOME! Definitely hope to see him again. So humble so appreciative. TEAM WITT

I went to Denver concery

Thank you Witt Lowry

Unrelated but I'm kinda wanting a witt and post malone song

True words n true feeling for millions around the globe ...this is music 🔥🔥🔥🔥..

Have you ever notice that this world teaches us the wrong lessons, all these laws and rules dont mean a damn thing when you die or when your alive. If you want to be honest we're not doing what we are truly ment too, but people wont realise that because they enjoy what the world teaches us.

Reminds me of my ex girlfriend she just left me just because “she was too good for me”

I want a video for this song😭

I’m gonna get this song to a million views by myself #teamwitty til the death of me.

i'm gonna stream this album as much as i can, witt deserves SO much more than he has

28 people just found out they except to be a sheep n chained to material n drug life....

The industry is not like it used to be. You see so many artists that deserve to be noticed but are not bc of technology. Honestly the fan support artist now by buying their stuff or they sell their soul and live w demons an Satan takes over frfr

he debuted at #84 on billboards top 200 first time in top 100

I’m currently trying to find out what I really want from my life, I’m 21 confused as shit about what I’m doing and where I want to go and these songs mean more to me than anything right now. They’re keeping me sane and have me looking back on kid me, back when I didn’t have all these pressures to be a certain thing to look “successful”. That line if you’re not happy you’ll always be in debt. That hits home. Idk if any of y’all feel the same but this type of music Witt and NF are helping me so much mentally with all the shit I’m going through.

Also 21, fucking same man.

Same feels bro

I should have known that somethin' man-made couldn't make me


Best line in the song

Amazing... Truly amazing

Inspirational indeed 💪

Defiantly my favorite song from the album

best song of the album!

Sallie mae is referring to college tuition payments correct?

Yes sir

Thank you for helping everyone that you do witt.

🔥🔥🔥🔥

guess ill always be in debt

i had a apt i could barley afford. promised by my girl shed split the cost b4 we even got it. she didnt pay a dime. i complained, she left, i couldnt pay it all...4 months later she left...2 months after i had to leave...my credit score was fucked....she was fine....rip...

Dia’s voice is so beautiful!!!

Damn man. I Love your music, i remember finding your songs 5 years ago. I was 18, now im 23 with a kiddo, wife, buying a house a car, and i have my own vehicle. This shit hits deep. Not suprising.. Stay woke, stay real.

Witt <3, when are you coming to Denver??

I find such a peace within every last beat of this song but cant figure out why honestly

This really made me ball, growing up in a home where finances aren't always stable makes life so hard, but it also makes me fight just as hard. Thank you for helping me see that witt😢😢😢

Real life, real music!!💯💯

THIS IS *LIT* in the bold font

Thank you Witt for dropping 🔥

Genuinely haven't been more excited for an album like this one. Keep it up, Witt. We've been here for years and we'll be here the years yet to come.

Amazing as always

Why does every song get better wtf😂

Everyone name your favorite Witt songs in order

Damn bro... damn!

who ever dislikes this, like can we just talk?

Love the track

By far the best one on the entire album, in love with this song 👏🧡

this shit too good

Dope song! "When I'm gone" from Eminem was the inspiration for this one…

This man still makes me strong even when I feel low I got you bro team Witt

It's easy to say money is everything when you have none, and it's easy to say it isn't when you have it all.

Pfv? Collab would be fuckin lit 🔥

Witts just throwing new songs at us, I love it

Great song!

This whole album was amazing and I related to it so fucking much. But this song.. this song here I related to the most. I’ve never had shit. I hate hearing, “Money don’t buy happiness.” Yeah well happiness doesn’t come from paying your bills every week and still being behind. Or moving back home with my parents cause I can’t afford to live alone at 24. Or not having a car cause it broke down and I can’t afford to fix it. Thank you for this song Witt. It hit home.

He is giving what eminem couldn't give us for the last 5 years witt big love to you 1 day you gonna be the best rapper in this world i am sure ♥️🤘🤘

Another day another. 'Bill'

I remembered that song from Diddy. I think it was home or something

This song speaks to me in so many ways💔

perfection!

“My moms worked her whole life just to get me a life” I love you mom

Ya should really make a song with eminem tho

Powerful lyrics 🔥

Witt absolutely killing it like always! 🔥👍 Great work.

Every verse, every note, every song, and every album hits deep, so damn relatable and a huge inspiration.. this is one of the favourites though along with Alone on the album🔥
