[Slick Rick] My future´s lookin´ promisin´ Problem with my mom again, troublin´
Money think it´s runnin´ things When no income isn´t comin´ in Runnin´ with the wrong again Gone again, money
[Slick Rick] I keep sendin´ cash demeanor Got it, workin´ for it meaner Puts a hurtin´ on a senior Have to curtain, cook and pee on Did I stutter? It´s root of all, boo, all you loyal to it, useless Bruise tryna do vocal, lose no one I still pull him out a grave Tryna play, chap? Okay Dust him off, nobody´s touchin´ us and rush him off Loose lips, Rick dances with wolf, kid
Elusive, arrange is the new black, I move past Like, "Dress me like some baby George Clinton," what´s he thinkin´? Stackin´ the deck, ain´t attractin´ a chick, ain´t backin´ up shit Control money, don´t let it show money Soul money, never let it go from me, cold, homie Suede, linen, ain´t decay, pray when I´m A in ´em Stay with him, told to play, ageism "Variety makes good society," I said this Respect, kid Excessive makes me question my ethics Though cash has no moral comp´, showin´ some Flow is don, know it´s wrong, throw it from, showin´ some Home, sweet home
[ Slick Rick]
Like some new cents in my wallet I´m on top it and nurturing the loose change in my pocket You know this ain´t a game to us Money, money thinks
[Lil Wayne] Money versus everybody, money isn´t everything That´s cap and I put that on everything I don´t look back, I never blink I´m at the bank, I´m thinkin´ ´bout the fact how I don´t have to think About a way to rob the bank I fuck around and buy the bank Dollar bill, dollar bill, water bill, power bill Power struggles, power moves, and power drills ´cause I reveal I gotta ball, gotta plot, got a wall full of clocks
Still ain´t got no time to kill, got on a watch, the diamonds real Money make the world go ´round, money racin´ hurdles now Take the drapes, the curtains down, don´t money make the perfect clouds? Money counter go, "Brr," money make the perfect sound And the chopper go, "Brr-rrr-rrr-rrr," okay, they heard me now Lookin´ like a pile of money, that ho face-first in the pile This that Tunechi and Preemo, we connect like a magnet And we grew to Magneto like the root of all evil, money
[Slick Rick]
My future´s lookin´ promisin´ Problem with my mom again, troublin´ Money think it´s runnin´ things When no income isn´t comin´ in Runnin´ with the wrong again Gone again, money When ponderin´ a con again Morality in front of when or once again Money thinks it´s runnin´ things See you got a honey, young and thin Buy the honey ton of things Flatterin´, money
