Lyrics
You know this ain't a game to us My future's lookin' promisin' Problem with my mom again, troublin' Money thinks it's runnin' things When no income isn't comin' in Runnin' with the wrong again Gone again, money I keep sendin' cash demeanor Got it, workin' for it meaner Puts a hurtin' on a senior Have to curtain, cook and pee on Did I stutter? It's root of all, boo, all you loyal to it, useless Bruise tryna do vocal, lose no one I still pull him out a grave Tryna play, chap? Okay Dust him off, nobody's touchin' us and rush him off Loose lips, Rick dances with wolf, kid Elusive, arrange is the new black, I move past Like, "Dress me like some baby George Clinton," what's he thinkin'? Stackin' the deck, ain't attractin' a chick, ain't backin' up sh*t Control money, don't let it show money Soul money, never let it go from me, cold, homie Suede, linen, ain't decay, pray when I'm A in 'em Stay with him, told to play, ageism "Variety makes good society," I said this Respect, kid Excessive makes me question my ethics Though cash has no moral comp', showin' some Flow is don, know it's wrong, throw it from, showin' some Home, sweet home Like some new cents in my wallet I'm on top it and nurturing the loose change in my pocket You know this ain't a game to us Money, money thinks— Money versus everybody, money isn't everything That's cap and I put that on everything I don't look back, I never blink I'm at the bank, I'm thinkin' 'bout the fact how I don't have to think About a way to rob the bank I f**k around and buy the bank Dollar bill, dollar bill, water bill, power bill Power struggles, power moves, and power drills 'cause I reveal I gotta ball, gotta plot, got a wall full of clocks Still ain't got no time to kill, got on a watch, the diamonds real Money make the world go 'round, money racin' hurdles now Take the drapes, the curtains down, don't money make the perfect clouds? Money counter go, "Brr," money make the perfect sound And the chopper go, "Brr-rrr-rrr-rrr," okay, they heard me now Lookin' like a pile of money, that ho face-first in the pile This that Tunechi and Preemo, we connect like a magnet And we grew to Magneto like the root of all evil, money My future's lookin' promisin' Problem with my mom again, troublin' Money thinks it's runnin' things When no income isn't comin' in Runnin' with the wrong again Gone again, money When ponderin' a con again Morality in front of when or once again Money thinks it's runnin' things See you got a honey, young and thin Buy the honey ton of things Flatterin', money
