      Actually he didnt become a millionaire because the guy refuses to "sell" his music. Apparently he turned down like 5 million dollars from CZcams royalties. However Im sure his hit made him a lot of money, one way or another.

    Now and then I think of when we were together
    Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
    Told myself that you were right for me
    But felt so lonely in your company
    But that was love, and it's an ache I still remember
    You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
    Like resignation to the end, always the end
    So when we found that we could not make sense
    Well, you said that we would still be friends
    But I'll admit that I was glad it was over
    But you didn't have to cut me off
    Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
    And I don't even need your love
    But you treat me like a stranger, and that feels so rough
    No, you didn't have to stoop so low
    Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
    I guess that I don't need that, though
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
    But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
    And I don't wanna live that way
    Reading into every word you say
    You said that you could let it go
    And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
    But you didn't have to cut me off
    Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing (aah-ooh)
    And I don't even need your love (ooh)
    But you treat me like a stranger, and that feels so rough (aah)
    No, you didn't have to stoop so low (ooh)
    Have your friends collect your records and then change your number (aah)
    I guess that I don't need that, though
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Somebody (I used to know)
    Somebody (now you're just somebody that I used to know)
    Somebody (I used to know)
    Somebody (now you're just somebody that I used to know)
    I used to know
    That I used to know

They revealed that they seemed quite irritated that the song did as well as it did and was being treated as just anther pop-song.
