Money
Now the CD needs a budget and the food ain't free
But the food will never bring the money back to me
So when I tell you that I'm hungry as I write this here
Understand when I speak on cash its sincere
X2
See me working with the logic never worshiped income
But know just how it happens when your a** can't get some
The wrong 9 to 5 now you can't get sh** done
No energy to focus and no money to build
Its like they're try'n to keep you still with just enough for bills
If its not a plot to trap me that's sure how it feels
I need the loan to get the car I need the car to get to work
And then they'll have me trapped not making half of what I'm worth
Hes getting paid
Hes got no time hit the studio now
Hes getting paid
Won't make enough to go to college
Hes getting paid
He makes enough to get food for his child
Hes getting paid
But for the cloth he needs a few more dollars
Hes getting paid
The studio or college hell a brick to flip
Everything that makes money takes money to get
Now I could dream of great money live bummy and sit
Or I could work the f**ing puzzle until I find what fits
See I got myself a theory to which I commit
If your working on it daily then you might get rich
But most will wait for what their handed cause they're trained to sit
You need a service to supply or some sh** to flip
But get this get rich or die hungry and homeless
Misery a son of destiny who lost his focus
I'd love to shine some light on all these f**ing vulture
And watch em all scatter like they're co*kroaches
The ones who had a purpose but refused to build
Who eat off other people and can't pay their bills
Who had a place to go but simple chose to sit
And will never no the meaning of a life like this
Hes getting paid
He makes enough to hit the studio now
Hes getting paid
He makes enough to go to college
Hes getting paid
He makes enough to get food for his child
Hes getting paid
Making moves while hes chasing dollars
