Make money, money don't make you (6x)
Make money and give it back to the world 'cause the world makes money, money don't make you
Mama said baby you gon' make it I know it
You got a lot of drive I can tell you know where you're going
My only hope is when you get it play it cool don't blow it
Remember you cannot take anything with you when you go
(Yap!)
Mama thanks I'm living by that daily
Steady getting paid I promise it won't change me
When I'm on top people might praise me
But they gon' see a good man like you raised me
Counting change I'ma make changes too
First I gotta break through to the youth
And the method of delivery I choose is music
Make way, 'cause ya boy's coming through with the truth
I seen, too many people get paid and lose it
Go crazy, blow a couple racks on shoes
New crib, new whip, and a chain or two
I got news for you and I suggest you write it down too
Your word is all that you got is what it comes down to
Gotta be honest and stay loyal to fam too
Be strong, don't break, work hard, make money, but remember that it don't make you
Make money, money don't make you (6x)
Make money and give it back to the world 'cause the world makes money, money don't make you
Some day, I'ma be rich and I know it
I been working like a dog rain, sleet, hail, snow
Patiently waiting until I know it's my moment
My brother made beats, told me hit the gas, and I'm gone
(Yap!)
First tape was All In A Day
Now I'm tryna make it go global I'l be home for the holidays
Just playing, I'm leaving that to the lames
I'm a family man my homebase I'ma never stray
Pops told me no matter where you go or what you're doing, you can always come home bro we love you
In return I promised him I'ma dream big, make money but I will never put that above you
Anyway I need to stay on track
'Cause time is money it's ironic I'm talking about that
Coming from a trailer, mama cooking weenies and mac
The whole fam seen hell but we all came back
(Uh!)
Same dude ain't a damn thing changed
No thug but I'll kill for my brothers if y'all make me
Only hard when I gotta be, still soft, love deep, making the time for my lady
You on that weak s***, you call it G s***
Big bad no love in the street s***
Maybe it's me but, if that's all they're selling in the rap game these days y'all can keep it
For me more it's than just getting the cream
I'm sure you hear a lot of talking, don't know what to believe
We in the same place I'm just telling you what I see
I'm down for making some money but money won't make me
Make money, money don't make you (6x)
Make money and give it back to the world 'cause the world makes money, money don't make you
Mama said baby you gon' make it I know it
You got a lot of drive I can tell you know where you're going
My only hope is when you get it play it cool don't blow it
Remember you cannot take anything with you when you go
Mama thanks I'm living by that daily
Steady getting paid I promise it won't change me
When I'm on top people might praise me
But they gon' see a good man like you raised me
Make money, money don't make you
Make money, money don't make you
...
Make money, money don't make you
Make money, money don't make you
Make money and give it back to the world 'cause the world makes money, money don't make you
