| They say that it’s the root of evil
|
| I guess thats kinda true
|
| Just to get it
|
| Look at all the things that people do
|
| Rob steal kill cheat lie
|
| Sell their soul
|
| In the blink of an eye
|
| Just to see their dollars grow
|
| I don’t know
|
| What about the hard working nine to fivers
|
| Trying to make a honest living day to day
|
| Barely survivin'
|
| Bus drivin'
|
| Kitchen cookin'
|
| Cleanin'
|
| Takin out the trash
|
| Feelin like there
|
| Ain’t no meanin'
|
| But to try and get some cash go to school
|
| Higher learnin'
|
| That’s what they say you need in this society
|
| We all tryin' to succeed
|
| What does success
|
| Look like
|
| How do you measure
|
| The amount
|
| I mean
|
| Is it solely based on
|
| The balance of your account if thats the case
|
| I’m tryin to break the bank
|
| I see you sittin on dubs what’s up with
|
| That empty tank
|
| To be frank
|
| That’s just not healthy
|
| You trying to get rich
|
| Man I’m tryin to be wealthy
|
| If it don’t make dollars
|
| Then it don’t make sense
|
| All the paper in the world
|
| And you’ll never be content
|
| Whether falling from the skies or growing on the trees
|
| You serve it like a master got you falling on your knees
|
| Love it, Money
|
| Stack it, Money
|
| Count it, Money
|
| Fold it, Money
|
| Spend it, Money
|
| Want it, Money
|
| Need it, Money
|
| Take it, Money
|
| It can change your life in a major way
|
| How much did you make today
|
| What about after taxes
|
| What you got saved away
|
| Let you hold somethin'
|
| I thought you just got paid
|
| How you rather be broke
|
| Just to copp some Js
|
| Who am I to criticize
|
| I’ve been down that same path
|
| Spend it faster
|
| Than I make it
|
| No hesitatin'
|
| I paid cash
|
| That was my goal in life
|
| To have the freshest sneakers
|
| But as as I get older
|
| Things get much deeper
|
| Who’s the richest
|
| Not my business
|
| Never check the forbes list
|
| All they ever do
|
| Is tell me you cannot afford this
|
| Money ain’t a thing
|
| Thats the motto
|
| When you ballin'
|
| Money’s everything
|
| When the bill collectors calling
|
| In the end though
|
| It’s not like
|
| You can die with it
|
| Not to mention
|
| All the things that you can’t buy with it
|
| Love peace joy good health these are priceless
|
| Never sell yourself short no matter what the price is
|
| If it don’t make dollars
|
| Then it don’t make sense
|
| All the paper in the world
|
| And you’ll never be content whether falling from the skies or growing on the
|
| trees
|
| You serve it like a master got you falling on your knees Love it, Money
|
| Stack it, Money
|
| Count it, Money
|
| Fold it, Money
|
| Spend it, Money
