GET MONEY
[Intro]
(Ayo, hold up man)
[Verse 1]
I was born in the struggle, raised in the fight
Every day’s a battle, tryin‘ to make it through the night
Chains on my mind, but my soul stays free
They wanna cage my body, but they don’t break me
Dreams of my people, hangin‘ on by a thread
System wants us dead, but I keep my head
Mama cried tears that could flood the street (shoot fire)
Now I write rhymes that make the pain retreat (Pray)
Blood on my hands from the wars I’ve seen (Pray)
But I’m fightin‘ for a future that my soul can dream
They wanna see me fall, but I’m standin‘ tall
When the world turns its back, I still hear the call
Just wan’t to fuck that, it’s fuckin‘ to still hear the call
Rest in power to the fallen, they live through me
Every verse I write is a part of their legacy
From the ashes, we rise, to the top we climb
This is thug life eternal forever divine (yah yah)
[Chorus]
Through the flames, I rise like a phoenix in the sky (Get Money)
Never let ‚em take me, I was born to defy (Get Money)
In the darkness, I shine, let my soul ignite (Get Money)
This is for the lost ones still fightin‘ the fight (Get Money)
Through the flames, I rise like a phoenix in the sky (Get Money)
Never let ‚em take me, I was born to defy (Get Money)
In the darkness, I shine, let my soul ignite (Get Money)
This is for the lost ones still fightin‘ the fight
[Verse 2]
Bullet scars on my heart, but it still beats strong
Every verse I spit is where the truth belongs
They tell me pick a side, but I’m takin‘ the throne
A soldier for the people, I’m never alone
Crooked cops and politicians, playin‘ their game (oh fuck)
Tryna lock us in a cell, leave us drownin‘ in pain
But my pen is my weapon, my words are my shield
On this battlefield of life, I refuse to yield
I see the ghetto streets, where the hope gets lost
But I’m speakin‘ for the voiceless, no matter the cost
Every block is a story, every soul is a flame
We ain’t just numbers, we got fuckin‘ names
Hear the cries of the youth, they call for a change (Pray)
Tired of the lies, tired of the chains
Revolution’s in the wind, I can feel it blow
From the concrete jungle, watch the flowers grow
Peace to my brothers locked down in the cage
And love to the mothers carryin‘ all the rage
[Chorus]
Through the flames, I rise like a phoenix in the sky (Get Money)
Never let ‚em take me, I was born to defy (Get Money)
In the darkness, I shine, let my soul ignite (Get Money)
This is for the lost ones still fightin‘ the fight (Get Money)
Through the flames, I rise like a phoenix in the sky (Get Money)
Never let ‚em take me, I was born to defy (Get Money)
In the darkness, I shine, let my soul ignite (Get Money)
This is for the lost ones still fightin‘ the fight
[Outro]
(Get Money) (Get Money) (Get Money) (Get Money)
(Get Money) (Get Money) (Get Money) (Get Money)
