So I’m on the way to the store to buy a pack a gum, maybe a drink Opened my wallet, there it is, paper covered in ink If money could talk, if money could think What'd it say about the massive debt, the tax, and the inflation we’ve got to pay? What'd it say about the poverty stricken living on less than dollar a day? Hey money, start talking
I'm the medium of exchange, I'm the minimum wage Isn’t it strange? I got thousands of superior names I discredited the gold, I'm paper made But nobody questioned me so I made you slaves to the capitalist norm, so you invest on intuition Even if you can’t afford, you’ve got to pay the tuition for your son's university; his success in your hands If you can't, what a pity, now you're a less of a man See, I created the system where everybody's ambition is only wealth and the riches which is now everyone's mission Since you're captured inside my prison I can manufacture you a passionate man for this competition Trap you in the water while the men are fishing Irrational to tell the prey to hunt, but it's real efficient Fracture your beliefs, even your religion I turn your friends to foes, then to co-workers, but it's only business
Bridge) The Dollars, the Wons, the Euros, and the Pesos So many names, so many dead presidents' faces The Dollars, the Wons, the Euros, and the Pesos Living on fake money, make the world makeshift
Hook) Hey money, talk to me, make a sound Hey money, money, money make the world go round Round and round So what you wanna do?
Money wanted to talk and so I asked of the root of the economic problem and money laughed I asked, "What's so funny?" He looked at me like I was a dummy Sup money? Keep talking
I was created in the Federal Reserve where the top bankers literally serve all your financial returns They say you get what you deserve but never audit the records Increase the money supply and the trauma for the beggars Print ten times more than what they have in the base Then, fines the people the debt with their taxes and raised prices and call it inflation Make you liquidate your assets to solid paper money, but you soon acknowledge that it's not enough to pay off the debt, it won’t ever be So you fight each other till death, to pleasure me Now there's a price tag on everything including your life The human barcode's coming, but you'll refuse to fight And you can talk all you want but in the sequel they only listen when I'm involved, this is the thesis: They think I'm a dream but I'm the root of all evil They love the green, so I easily control the people, enough said

So what you wanna do? Don't let money get inside your head; it's got no actual value It's just a piece of paper instead, but money is still talking to you, enough said
(Hook) She's seducing me She's a working girl She may be using me But, it don't really matter Because I think I'm in love with a working girl So tonight I'mma play my cards right
고운 손으로 양주를 들어 내 잔에 술을 따르는 웃음을 파는 그녀 내겐 나무 같은 그늘 서슬픈 하루를 웃음으로 바꾸고 아침에 푸른 하늘을 맞이해야 깊숙히 잠드는 꿈속에서 다시 만난 그녀와 사랑을 나누곤 해 잠에 깨서 눈이 뜨면 그녀는 없어 다른곳에 서 딴 남자 팔짱을 끼고 있을 상상은 못해 난 사랑이란 물 한방울에 목 마른 노예거든 너가 원하는게 내 돈이야 내 몸이야 영혼이야? 달콤한 사랑 아니면 단단한 벽돌이야? 골치 아프게 튕기지 않고 내 손을 잡는 그녀 내님을 닮은 그녀 서서히 내 맘을 열어 하룻밤이 지나도록 이 술잔이 오고 가 우리 둘만의 공간 타오르듯 불타니 날 애태우지말고 자 그만 좀만 좀 가자 외로운 내 자아가 숨막히도록 울잖니
(Hook) I want to get what you want; I need your real name and number She's like "I’ve got to run/ but call me" makes me wonder Does she understand my pain? My game is under her umbrella and she's hot as the summer sun On her propellers she's so fly I love it when she rolls by in a mini skirt, those thighs got me peaking with both eyes She's checking for my wallet in my back pocket and my rocket She's like asking “what's your size, and what’s your prize?” 25 for the table and 10 for 3 hours After that it’s how you play it, hoping to devour her? Feed me like a king, my queen, the night be ours She understands my taste exactly, she's sweet and sour A lot of bottles and we smelling like carcasses Hurts to see her checking her watch and it’s time's up She's like "Call me later," bunch of empty promises I'm trashed and out of paper, my friends call her a garbage bitch
I know it's been so long and you know although I'm gone I'm still there till the end I got your back regardless through the good times and bad, through the darkness I'm still a friend
Now that I'm older, it feels like it's real life Got my sleeves rolled up, work the grounds while it's still bright Build a tolerance for pain, more knowledge in the brain and skills to kill mics But since I'm living in past times I can't push forward, I can't climb the endless mountain called life During this conversation, i'm facing a wall like a soliloquoy, to tell myself 'it's alright' The world is a place without a soul to trust Maybe I’ve been thinking about everything all too much I regret taking flight, leaving on the plane I’m aching like I’m asthmatic cuz I’m breathing in pain I'm breaking lights from the morning until the evening fades Feeling stressed to pay the price, but you see me awake, breathing today I'm still alive, I ain't dead, that may be seasons away I hope you're doing good though, I'm believing and praying Tough times, working hard to blow it up The road is a lonely one, the ground is cold and rough And we're still growing up, but I guess we're old enough If you feel me, let me see your hands high, throw it up!
24 and we're riding and we're riding on 24, and we're riding on 24 We got time but we ain't young any more 24 and we're riding, and we're riding on 24 Nothing is infinite in this world, there's always time in it Nothing lasts and everything will pass in a flash in just minutes 24 and we're riding, and we're riding on 24
This goes out to all my friends that i'll never forget about it's tough times for us I know. we ain't young any more, yet we're still growing up
I know it's been so long and you know although I'm gone I'm still there till the end I got your back regardless through the good times and bad, through the darkness I'm still a friend
I got so many friends in different area codes but to know that when im dead, I'll be buried alone It makes me wonder man, who'd really cry? who'd even try? When I'm through with this life, what do I carry along? I'm sorry too, cuz I forgot to tell you I'm gone so don't bother calling me on the cellular phone But im good, I've been working hard to sell these songs and I know you're stressed out, I've been well informed Whether it's love life or beef unemployed and dissapointed, so you're tired and beat to the point that you're being toyed, lied to and cheated Frustrated, I know it, you're only trying to eat It's tough times for us, working hard to blow it up The road is a lonely one, the ground is cold and rough And we're still growing up, but I guess we're old enough If you feel me, let me see your hands high, throw it up!
24 and we're riding and we're riding on 24, and we're riding on 24 We got time but we ain't young any more 24 and we're riding, and we're riding on 24 Nothing is infinite in this world, there's always time in it Nothing lasts and everything will pass in a flash in just minutes 24 and we're riding, and we're riding on 24
I don't wanna be loving her (I'm just saying) I don't wanna be in love with her (I'm just saying) I don't wanna be in love with her (I'm just saying) I just wanna be in it
The game is not chess, get aggressive, but be a nice player I'm one of the best, but the worst inside your nightmare Your bitch be like "Oh yes, just hit it right there" and next, your sister gets undressed, I'm like "yeah" huh So I'm talking about fucking around There ain't no cutting down Addicted to bitches, gotta bust it out Not a stick up artist, just a pick up artist Add a bit of liquor, when it kicks in, I'm so sick and retarded Don't get me wrong, it's not I'm not attracted to you I like u in a thong, but when it's off, I have to do you When you get me to rise, I keep growing, to blast it through you Keep riding, keep going, knowing I'm only practice to you In the end though, it's empty with no love potion No emotion whatsoever, so much fish in the ocean So we boasting like casanovas, with a hoe the game's over So in the morning she's blowing, but I'd be sober and I don't know her
So he's a pick up artist you know that? So is he into you? (You hope so don't you) Or is he just inside of you? (Blow slow like a porno or something)
So how does it feel, you've got a friend on your side just to chill, but still, let us divide the line, it's just sexual drive Never a bride, OK? This is for real, although we're mesmorized, naughty and silly for the pleasure tonight I know she's ready to ride, and no, she never denies So I'm already inside, already wet and real tight At first, steady and nice, taking it slow Levitating your soul, breaking indoors She's yelling "faster," aching for more Don't make me adore you Are you soar? Harder or soft? Tell me, that's what I've got it for I'm sorry but I gotta leave after this Just promise me to remember who the master is In the end though, it's empty with no love potion No emotion whatsoever, so much fish in the ocean So we boasting like casanovas, with a hoe the game's over So in the morning she's blowing, but I'd be sober and I don't know her
So he's a pick up artist you know that? So is he into you? (You hope so don't you) Or is he just inside of you? (Blow slow like a porno or something)
I don't wanna be loving her (I'm just saying) I don't wanna be in love with her (I'm just saying) I don't wanna be in love with her (I'm just saying) I just wanna be in it
