Dollar Signz

[Hook]
I find myself thinking bout dollar signs all the time
I gotta snap out of it and keep myself in line
I got a cruel heart mixed with a selfish mind
So let's peel the top back and see what we find

[Verse 1]
I gotta stay focused or I'mma get eaten by locusts
The industry is creeping into me, it's killing me and I know this
When I think about the fat cats
The flashy rappers in the videos toting gold chains and snapbacks
As a kid I would watch from afar and ask "Ma, why can't I have that?"
Every once in a while I flashback
In an industry where we fiend for cash stacks
Blow a budget, gotta make it all back
You flop, get dropped and they never call back
On a paper chase
But how much happiness does the paper make
How many good souls does the paper take
Ugh I'm thinking too much, gotta make an escape

[Bridge]
Tell me something new
What am I supposed to do
To impress all the people that surround me
Ain't a damn thing changed
Since the Wu-Tang was saying
Cash rules everything around me

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
The top entertainers
I look upon them and they're shameless
Before they sold their souls to be famous
They were faceless, nameless
Look at them all, corporate puppets
Take all your money and they guzzle up it
New album coming out next Tuesday
They rob you again, you don`t mind, you love it
Terrorizing the public
I won`t act like I`m not above it
Who wouldn`t wanna get paid for doing what they love
We`re just bitter `cause we wish it was us
So to mom and dad working that 9 to 5
Keep brining home the bacon and we`ll all be fine
And to all the husbands and wives
Working the same jobs for the rest of your lives
Stay humble, don`t let the paycheck control you
Just remember what your parents told you
"We`ll love you no matter what you do"
Forget about the dollar signs and focus on you
Forget about the dollar signs and focus on you
Just focus on you, stay true
Money
