Lyrics
[INTRO] Yeah I got financial problems respectfully
But my inventory?
Elite
[VERSE 1] Walked into the Poké Mart confident
Left emotionally bankrupt with confidence
Cashier already know my name now
Every week I’m back buying stuff I cannot pay down
Ultra Balls stacked up ridiculously
No savings account but my catch rate historically efficient B
Spent my rent on Revives again
Cause apparently my team enjoys almost dying for character development
I got:
six Potions
three Escape Ropes
zero budgeting skills emotionally
Backpack so heavy I walk like Snorlax
But if a legendary appear?
Brother I’m prepared for combat
Meanwhile my rival buying one Potion responsibly
Dude probably got healthcare and financial stability honestly
I’m in Celadon blowing checks irrationally
Buying luxury Poké Balls like I’m sponsored actually
[HOOK] Poké Ball debt
Pocket full of bad choices
Every time I save money I immediately hear legendary noises
Poké Ball debt
Still spending like a Champion
Even though my bank account built like a fainted Magikarp pattern
I got dreams
I got stress
I got thirty-seven Poké Balls and emotional neglect
Poké Ball debt
Can’t stop now
Already too invested in this lifestyle somehow
[VERSE 2] Walked into the Poké Mart like:
“I’m just buying one thing.”
Twenty minutes later somehow spending Champion money recklessly
Ultra Balls
Full Restores
Revives stacked stupidly
Can’t pay rent but my inventory look beautiful emotionally
Cashier judging me respectfully
She already know I’m back every week unfortunately
My rival buying one Potion responsibly
Meanwhile I’m financing another dream irresponsibly
But what if THIS the run though?
What if THIS my moment?
That’s how I justify financial ruin and Poké Ball components
Card declined again
“Yeah uh… run it one more time actually.”
[HOOK] Poké Ball debt
Inventory look glorious
Financial future absolutely looking notorious
Poké Ball debt
Still chasing the dream
Even if my wallet making low HP warning screams
I got hope
I got doubt
I got another shopping basket somehow right now
Poké Ball debt
That’s the lifestyle
Broke financially but catching Pokémon in style
[OUTRO — Spoken] You know what’s dangerous?
Not Team Rocket
Not Legendary Pokémon
Impulse buying in Poké Marts
That’s the real enemy
Actually hold on
I do need more Revives though real quick
I treat Poké Marts like luxury shopping
Walk in for Antidotes, leave with my finances stopping
Bought fifty Ultra Balls “just in case”
Now I’m eating instant noodles with Champion dreams on my face
Team looking at me concerned lately
Even Meowth like:
“Bro this spending kinda crazy.”
But imagine finding Mewtwo with no supplies
That fear alone got me making horrible financial choices nightly
Backpack full
Wallet empty
Still telling myself:
“This investment legendary.”
At this point I’m not even chasing Pokémon honestly
I’m chasing the feeling of finally catching something worth all this money
This is getting ridiculous but I don’t care I need this stuff
“Broke in real life… but statistically?
I’m prepared for anything.”
