Cost Effective Strategy

[Intro: Godemis]
Damn, my check was mad scandalous
That shit's like... I got like fucked out of 10 hours or some shit
Corporate shit is fucked like that

[Hook: Godemis]
Switch blades and guns
5s, 10s, and 1s
I need bigger faces than that, to be exact like
20, 50, and 100 dollar bills, y'all
Let's get it before the war and civilization falls with
Switch blades and guns
5s, 10s, and 1s
I need bigger faces than that, to be exact like
20, 50, and 100 dollar bills, y'all
Let's get it before the war and civilization falls

[Verse 1: Godemis]
Anybody know what it's like being broke as fuck?
You walk in Nike's all week, you roll a Cadillac truck
And they playing you like you heard but a year
Frustrated enough to pull some Columbine shit and murder your peers
Too many years, twice as many beers, trying to live without it
Some told me that if I sought it then my visuals clouded
Well how's about this new millennium
I'm sick of living check to check
It's all about survivin' so fuck your interval respect
When I recollect I realize, mom was knowing that without money we wouldn't have had those decent clothes our back
Or food on the table, manifested way before the label dreams
Record contract isn't all that it seems
And chicken's maybelline, make it seem, money make the man
So I beat the fuck outta who with 50 1s in my hand
Got 'em another plan, make the money not the other way around
Bottle like a [?], while others wait around
I'mma take the crown, brokest millionaire you've ever seen
Prophetic and chasing currency as well as my dreams
Got on another scene
Brain check halogen hazing teens
Brain sketch follicles on the scene I intervene with

Let's get it before the war and civilization falls
With switch blades and guns

[Verse 2: Ubiquitous]
My financial stress is feeling like a dance with death
Wondering "can I handle debt?", counting the credit cards I haven't cancelled yet
I expect dollars and pockets to connect like necks to heads
To enhance my profit margin on bets when I set the spreads
I work hard and the exit's left over barged by the net
And living off five digit income is a bargain at best
Start your success by selling out don't cost an arm and a leg
Set apart from the rest and vanish like a heart from your chest
You'll be marked by the press to be the next to rise to the top
In the public eye cause they publicize the size of your spot
And your privacy shot, [?] fuck it cause you earn what you get
Provide you everything you got but also turn to the shit
Stacking fake money in safes and packing guns in your waist
Wrapping you up 28 days, so long the funds that you make
Still under restraint, and it's funny they say, that having no cash will make a sunny day rain
But this money ain't change
Feel the inflation as the running rates raise beyond projection
Life insurance is a joke but at least your car's protected
When half your revenue's tax free ethics get called into question
The IRS will find your nest and repossess all your refreshments with

[Verse 3: Reach]
My economic approach- isn't cost effective
I think about all the things my job lost effected
No health care for my seed, it's keeping 'em sick
If I can't pay the rent, then I'll sleep on a brick
I don't understand this, what sort of evil is this?
A square meal isn't something that people should miss
If I lose another job I'll be sure to collapse
Just sit around and wait for my insurance to lapse
First a day, then a week, then a month slid
So now I don't have the coverage that I once did
Momma told me there'd be days, and it was so prophetic
It's so pathetic, but I'm thinking it's copacetic
I just applied for a car, let's hope I get it
The dealer told me the denial was mostly credit
My financial distress, well it's been exacerbated
Filed chapter 11 now I'm wondering affidavit
I've been out of work, so I'm driving a Ford
Sadly, it was really all that I could afford
I almost got my job back but my boss resigned
Now I've got an axe to grind and a job to find
