Stop Being Poor (feat. Patti Harrison)

This one goes out to all my poors out there I know you're down on your luck But someone once told me that being poor is a choice So stop Stop being poor, stop being poor Let the wealth trickle down, let the money hit the floor If you are a poor person, then just go out and find a job If you can't secure a job, then go to college, don't be a blob If you can't afford tuition, then try to get employed again And if you still can't get a job, go work for your rich uncle then Just stop being poor, stop being poor Let the wealth trickle down, let the money hit the floor If you have no insurance, then get some, you'll save money If you have medical debt, then call your provider, honey If you can't get on a plan, you'll have to pay out-of-pocket You shouldn't have gotten sick at all, if I'm just being honest Just stop being poor, stop being poor Let the wealth trickle down, let the money hit the floor If you are a homeless guy, then why not just go find a home? And if you can't buy at this time, then go to the bank and get a loan If the bank won't lend you money, then get a hotel room if need be And if the Ritz is full, next time don't wait to book your rezzy Don't settle for lower class, please be a tad ambitious (Me?) And if you got debt up the ass, just file for bankruptcy, bitches You guys don't want hand-outs, you want handbags from Chanel The stock market could not be higher, so liquefy and sell! Being poor is a choice, inequality is a myth Cycle of poverty is a myth, the middle class—it exists So stop being poor, just stop being poor Just stop, stop, stop, stop, stop being poor Stop being poor, stop being poor Let the wealth trickle down, let the money hit the floor Stop being poor, stop being poor Let the wealth trickle down, let the money hit the floor Stop My Uncle David actually wasn't born rich (Stop, stop) So I don't feel like he should be criticized here (Just stop) I feel like there's some sort of, like, satirical lens to this song (Just stop) Stop being poor
