| It’s not about the money
|
| Money put the money in the bank
|
| Money breeds greed and greed is really bad
|
| Money, money, oh, I never really had
|
| And I got by just fine not workin' for the man
|
| Thinkin' you got a dollar but you only got a dime
|
| Hustle up your lovin' to see the sunshine
|
| The simple things and the simple things
|
| And people only givin' a shit when you hide yourself
|
| Try mould to perfection
|
| When you don’t feel like feeding the mouth
|
| Bite the hand that feeds your wealth
|
| And that ain’t good for my mental health, oh, no
|
| They only give a shit when you make it big
|
| Frame my memory when I’m dead and gone
|
| Turn their back when you make a hit
|
| But if you love it then you’ll hold it down
|
| They only give a shit when you make it big
|
| Frame my memory when I’m dead and gone
|
| Turn their back when you make a hit
|
| But if you love it then you’ll hold it down
|
| You gotta hold it down
|
| Make a million dollars but it ain’t that much
|
| When it passes through the hands and they take their cuts
|
| So put your face on the poster, got the people inside
|
| When the debt rolls around, they go run and hide
|
| Eastside to the seaside
|
| Southside to the middle and of course, I died
|
| Head north to the border to get the time over
|
| And when the sun comes down
|
| I surrender to the night (I surrender to the night)
|
| And I will kiss away my pride (I will kiss away my pride)
|
| And I know it will find me one day
|
| All in good time
|
| They only give a shit when you make it big
|
| Frame my memory when I’m dead and gone
|
| Turn their back when you make a hit
|
| But if you love it then you’ll hold it down
|
| They only give a shit when you make it big
|
| Frame my memory when I’m dead and gone
|
| Turn their back when you make a hit
|
| But if you love it then you’ll hold it down
|
| You gotta hold it down |
