[Verse 1]
Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have-nots
Money, we make it
Before we see it, you take it
[Chorus]
Oh, and make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
[Post-Chorus]
This ain't livin', oh no no
This ain't livin', no no no no
[Verse 2]
Inflation, no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky high
Send that boy off to die
[Chorus]
Oh, and it makes me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life (Mmm, yeah)
[Verse 3]
Hangups, letdowns
Bad breaks, setbacks
Natural fact is
Oh, I can't pay my taxes
[Chorus]
Oh, and it make me wanna holler
So throw up both my hands
Mmm, make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
[Verse 4]
Crime is increasing
Trigger-happy policing
Panic is spreading
God knows where we're heading (Yeah)
