Lyrics
[Verse 1]
See, most of y'all sucka ass ****
Wouldn't last a week in my hood if you was broke
And wouldn't last a say if you had money
I seen grown men cry, grown men die
For the love of that money
In God we trust (Like a metaphor)
[Verse 2]
My trigger finger itchin', palms itchin' too
We back to back in ghosts, playin' peek-a-boo
We went to war with Sosa over a brick or two
So for a hundred ki's, think what my clique could do
I'm talkin' clappin' toasts, bullets will hit your roof
They hid his body, he went in shock, no Pikachu
**** ain't 'bout it, they talkin' but really pick and choose
We on our second strike, we ain't got shit to lose
[Verse 3]
All my **** is felons, all you **** is tellin'
Sold your soul to them people, they gon' get you to sell it
They gon' get you to move it, they gon' get you a Buick
They gon' get you a wire, like **** gon' use it
You gon' tell on your brothers, what a lame homie
I got a bullet with your name on it and a full clip I autographed
Kids cryin' at the viewin', I guess it was upset
[Verse 4]
We done went to war with the realest, shot it out with the best
Talkin' high end gorillas, banana clip make a mess
I seen young **** cry, I seen young **** fold
I seen young **** die because a young **** told
For the love of the money, for the love of the money
For the love of the money, love of the money
Man, them young **** hungry for the love of the money
I seen real **** cry, I seen real **** hit
I seen real **** die 'cause a real **** snitch
In God we trust
[Verse 5]
Lotta **** act Tony like
Told them these e'rything they you heard, but that's your homie, right?
But he got killers lurkin' outside at your home tonight
And they gon' hit the crib and kill the kids, oh, that's Kony, right?
Oh, that's Kony like, e'rybody bleed
'Cause he come out in 2060, Christmas eve
First time he went to prison he ain't get to leave
Feds takin' pictures, **** is rats, you should say cheese
Was a local dude, shit the fire now
Never ever spit a rap but he got bars now
I'm talkin' fed time, yard up, yard down
Baby mama can't pay the bills, shit is hard now
[Verse 6]
How that make you feel? You should pay them bills
MA spittin' in them trays when they make your meal
**** shittin' out them packs just to take them pills
And his baby mama brought 'em in, boy, this shit is real
**** turnin' Muslim, **** turnin' Christian
They gave him life, he tryin' appeal it, got him on mission
His homies ain't learn, they still in the kitchen
They firin' bullshit, that coca ain't swimmin'
It's comin' up short, no food on the fork
**** is catchin' cases, **** is goin' to court
He's a slave in the field, you the one on the porch
With that gun in your hand, try and run with the man
[Verse 7]
We done went to war with the realest, shot it out with the best
Talkin' high end gorillas, banana clip make a mess
I seen young **** cry, I seen young **** fold
I seen young **** die because a young **** told
For the love of the money, for the love of the money
For the love of the money, love of the money
Man, them young **** hungry for the love of the money
I seen real **** cry, I seen real **** hit
I seen real **** die 'cause a real **** snitch
In God we trust
[Verse 8]
Hey look, I'ma tell you like this
If you in school, ****, stay in school
If you got a job, ****, stay at work
If you a family man, stay with your motherfuckin' family, ****
'Cause this shit ain't meant for e'rybody, dawg
E'rybody talk that shit until they get caught up in some real shit
And then they start talkin' that shit
[Verse 9]
We done went to war with the realest, shot it out with the best
Talkin' high end gorillas, banana clip make a mess
I seen young **** cry, I seen young **** fold
I seen young **** die because a young **** told
For the love of the money, for the love of the money
For the love of the money, love of the money
Man, them young **** hungry for the love of the money
I seen real **** cry, I seen real **** hit
I seen real **** die 'cause a real **** snitch
In God we trust
