The Money

So can I get a price check? Yeah, can I get a price check

On your life and the side effects

Of the money, the greed, the debt, the schemes?

Check one, two, check two, three

Get a mic check, yeah, I'd rather get a mic check

Drapht comin' live and direct

From the West to the South, North to the East

Check one, two, check two, three

It's like, mmm, man, my mother was never made of the money

Iron maiden, never runnin' away from her sons or daughters

Always had food and water

Never knew how she afforded my Jordans, but bought 'em

I wore them till water would leak through the rips

Never looked poor like Oliver Twist

Never wanted more or knock on your door like I was a Mormon

Swore to be never down, caught in a rip

Nah, when money came, it was gone with the wind

On a shopping list longer than the Lord of the Rings

A sunny day, you ain't short of a thing

When you're born into the game holdin' four of the kings

Yeah, believe it, my dad was a musician

By bringin' a bass drum to cook up in the kitchen

Wouldn't feed us with all his get rich schemin'

Feedin' his demons, life's a bitch

To skyrocket, he forgot all the people in his locket

For a profit, leave another man rotten

Notes in his pocket nailed in his coffin

'Cause yesterday's pain ain't forgotten

So can I get a price check? Yeah, can I get a price check

On your life and the side effects

Of the money, the greed, the debt, the schemes?

Check one, two, check two, three

Get a mic check, yeah, I'd rather get a mic check

Drapht comin' live and direct

From the West to the South, North to the East

Check one, two, check two, three

It's like, yeah, I knew this girl that you would sell your soul for

She would control your world like the Cold War

No dole form, sworn for the riches erection

Oh, you gotta Rex or a Lexus?

Yeah, the temptress will give you attention

And hence, all you have to do is mention the money

It's like sex, you got none, you want it

Now she's all up in your wallet for the money

So can I get a price check? Yeah, can I get a price check

On your life and the side effects

Of the money, the greed, the debt, the schemes?

Check one, two, check two, three

Get a mic check, yeah, I'd rather get a mic check

Drapht comin' live and direct

From the West to the South, North to the East (One, two)

Check one, two, check two, three

Was always taught the root of all evil

He who will steal from the pocket of his people

Eagle-eyed, survive in the dark

Ravenous sharks, welcome to the business

Oh, I live this, knocked off the hinges

Our offspring addicted to syringes of money

Yeah, axe wieldin' civilian children kill for

Some Paris Hilton million dollar money

Some of these kids live the sunniest life

Still runnin' from the law like Bonnie and Clyde

Still deal, still peddlin' pills and rocks

Steal for what? You got all the dollar bills you want

(The money, the money)

It makes the world go round, it makes the world go

(The money, the money)

It makes the girls go down, it makes the girls go

(The money, the money)

Makes the world go round, it makes the world go

(The money, the money)

It makes the girls go down

So can I get a price check? Yeah, can I get a price check

Of the money, the greed, the debt, the schemes?

Check one, two, check two, three
