Letra 'Make The Money'
Now, this is my job, I will not quit it
Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished
Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance
That s just the work, regardless of who s listening, listening
Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior
Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious
Classroom of kids, or a venue performing
If I d had done for the money I d have been a fucking lawyer
Concrete, bagabon, van telling stories
Humbled by the road, I m realizing I m not important
See life s a beautiful struggle, I record it
Hope it helps you maneuvering through yours and
That s why we stay in the lab at night
I ve been staring into this pad for over half my life
A true artist won t be satisfied
So I guess that s the sacrifice
And I say...
Chorus:
Make the money, don t let the money make you
Change the game, don t let the game change you
I ll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
I say...
Make the money, don t let the money make you
Change the game, don t let the game change you
I ll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
Forget about the fame, fortune and the mansion
Sitting and tripping watching myself on a plasma
Yeah, I start slipping when I m thinking about that stuff
Ego won t swole until the karma catches that up, that up
How my grandma s number one grandson
I lost myself to remember who that was
We start thinking about some kicks, necklace
What I really need is a job off craig s list
Take away the dot com, name, love
Fans, twitter followers, and the buzz
See, you keep the issues but you take away the drugs
And I had to find out who I really was
Who I really wasn t
So sick of who I was becoming
Yeah, tired of running
Time to look at the man in the mirror until I can learn to love him
Chorus:
Make the money, don t let the money make you
Change the game, don t let the game change you
I ll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
I said...
Make the money, don t let the money make you
Change the game, don t let the game change you
I ll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
(x2)
Of course I want dubs and a candy painted lac
Watch the videos and get the girls in the back
But if that s what I believe in, and the reason that I rap
Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track
Chorus:
Make the money, don t let the money make you
Change the game, don t let the game change you
I ll forever remain faithful
Stay true, stay true
And I said...
Make the money, don t let the money make you
Change the game, don t let the game change you
I ll forever remain faithful
Stay true, stay true, stay true
Forget about the fame
I said forget about the fame
I ll forever remain faithful
Stay true, stay true, stay true
