Reality Called

프롬프트

[Verse 1] For a little while, I thought I had it made, Bought what I wanted without checking what I paid. A little more money made me feel so free, I thought that kind of life would always wait for me. [Pre-Chorus] Then morning came with numbers I couldn't ignore, And suddenly "enough" didn't feel enough anymore. [Chorus] I thought I was rich till reality called, Bills on the table made the fantasy fall. I had money to spend, but responsibilities, Woke me from the dream and brought me back to reality. [Verse 2] Rent took a piece, then the groceries came, Family needed help, and the car did the same. I watched what I earned disappear overnight, And learned having income doesn't mean you're alright. [Pre-Chorus] Growing up taught me what nobody said, Sometimes you're paid Friday and Monday it's spent. [Chorus] I thought I was rich till reality called, Bills on the table made the fantasy fall. I had money to spend, but responsibilities, Woke me from the dream and brought me back to reality. [Bridge] But maybe being rich isn't numbers alone, Maybe it's dinner with people at home. A peaceful night's sleep and somebody who cares, Having a little but someone to share. [Final Chorus] I thought I was rich when my wallet was full, Now I know money is only one rule. I'm rich when my family is healthy and near, When somebody I love says, "I'm glad that you're here." I'm rich when there's food and a roof over me, When I wake up with hope for what tomorrow could be. Reality woke me, but now I can see, I may not have millions—there's still wealth around me. [Outro] I woke from the dream and finally could see, Being rich means much more than money to me.
