INTRO
*Clears throat*
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
They say that money rule the, world
VERSE 1
I ain’t saying I grew up not having any
But I still lacked a lot so Imma need that dooh in plenty
I’m not entirely different homie but I’m not like many
I’m just another wise clown that really loves his pennies
Pockets empty, wallets empty, that’s a bloody struggle
But complaints never bring me chumz so I hustle hustle
I was never really a fan of illegal means
But I still spent hours in the lab cooking like some fiends
Dreams of Kendrick status with a Jay-Z bank account
Screw the fame I would rather have shillings in large amounts
Even if the cash was absent, I would still have some much passion
For this craft of mine and still be putting my plans into action
White collar jobs? I ain’t into that and such
Guess it’s true, if you do what you love, you won’t have to do that much
And money’s never been the motive, but you can’t live without it
So count it up
Count it up
Count it up
Count it
CHORUS:
They say the money rules the world, I know you here that
I ain’t sure how true that is
But we’re living in a world
Where everyone is doing what they can
Just so they can stack the chips
And youngins chasing dreams for some pay
And people do the most for a plate
Charlie Browns earning peanuts
Government be chilling like it’s nothing
When all the people really want is some
Easy Money
(Easy, Money’
Easy, Money
Easy, Money)
Put in hard work for some
Easy Money
(Easy, Money’
Easy, Money
Easy, Money)
People kill, people steal for some
Easy Money
(Easy, Money’
Easy, Money
Easy, Money)
You’d be surprised what people do for some
Easy Money
(Easy, Money’
Easy, Money
Easy, Money)
You’d be surprised what people do for some easy money…
VERSE 2
Dreams of Kendrick status with a Jay-Z bank account
Probably the reason why these kids are dropping out
Some just chasing money and some women and some clout
Others hate the system and they know what they’re about
Kids are flexing on the gram with Daddy’s cash
He’s a politicians who got all that cash from stealing taxes
Reason what the nation’s poor and still in freaking lack
Gava hawajali wanachi they're just here to stack
Na makarau wanaulizia hongo
Na kuwatesa vijana
Na kuwaua tu kiholela
Ata bila sababu baana
Na bado mabanii hukazana tu na
Maisha yao ya kijangili
Na wanawake wengine kuwalisha watoto
Kwa kuuza mwili
Na si eti ni watu wabaya
Ni vile tu hakuna njia nyingine
Itabidi wakazane na maisha hatuwezi kuwajugde
Juu pia pengine
Labda ungekuwa hapo pia
Earning money via dubois means
Cuz we’re living in a world, where people get the coin
By any means
Yeah this city is a jungle, I keep telling people
Money may be said to be the root of all evil
But you ought to check yourself before you say such
Because evil stems from the heart of all people
Yeah this city is a jungle, I keep telling people
Money may be said to be the root of all evil
But you ought to check yourself before you say such
Because evil stems from the heart of all people
CHORUS
They say the money rules the world, I know you here that
I ain’t sure how true that is
