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, vagabond, 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 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 I'm my grandma's number one grandson I lost myself to remember who that was We start thinking about some kicks, a necklace What I really need is a job off craig's list Take away the dot com, name, love, pants, it's were a father words in the bus 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 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 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 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 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
