Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We're in the basement learning to print
All of it's hot
Ten, twenty, thirty million ready to be spent
We're stacking 'em against the wall
Those gangster presidents
[Verse 2]
Living simple and tryna get by
But honey, prices have shot through the sky
So I fixed up the basement
With what I was a-working with
Stocked it full of jelly jars
And heavy equipment
We're in the basement
Ten, twenty, thirty million dollars ready to be spent
[Verse 3]
Walk into the bank, try to pass that trash
Teller sees and says, uh-huh, that's fresh as grass
See the street pass under your feet
In time to buy the latest model getaway Jeep
[Verse 4]
So I fixed up the basement
With what I was a-working with
Stocked it full of jelly jars
And heavy equipment
We're in the basement
[Verse 5]
So I fixed up the basement
With what I was a-working with
Stocked it full of jelly jars
And heavy equipment
We're in the basement
Learning to print
All of it's hot
All counterfeit
