T-Shirt - I Never Knew Money lyrics

My father was a gambler but he cleaned up One long weekend we thought he might have been dead He went missing and didn't come home for three days Finally showing up, guess what this motherf**er said: That he was locked in the basement of where he worked with no food due to a crazy accident We found out that was complete bullsh**, he disappeared to play horses and gamble the f**ing rent I never knew money, money wasn't an option Money never lived here, money was never my friend If it wasn't for my grandma we wouldn't know what was Christmas I never had a wish list, my parents needed a**istance You learn to value sh**, you can't ignore it I knew if I wanted anything a n***a would have to work for it And I don't want sh** I don't deserve But that doesn't leave much f** what you heard The thought of money's intoxicating, playing on the rugs I turned five grand down once to deliver d** It wasn't worth it. Paper to buy some kicks Doesn't add up to my calculated risks Though nowadays I'm new in this, and everything is at risk, and nothing makes any sense Checks disappear before them sh**s even clear, and poof That's five figures gone, did they even exist? Money is a joke, I make it and I'm broke I make it just to spend it and spend it on making more How you roll three blunts from a dub? I don't know but my n***a Dred does And we need it like it's blood And it's filthier than mud, got me sitting in the tub Drinking, thinking, "They say it's the root of evil, but This sh** goes hand in hand with everything you love"
