—People Watching, Conan Gray

"What's it like to brag about ranking in dollars and getting bitches and models, and it's all good if you're bad and it's okay if you're mad. If I was out flashing my dollars I'd be a bitch not a baller, they paint me out to be bad so it's okay that I'm mad. I'm so sick of running as fast as I can. Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man."
