The Money

So can I get a price check?
Yeah can I get a price check?
On your life and the side effects
Of the money
The greed
The debt
The schemes
Check one two, check two three
Get a mic check
Yeah I'd rather get a mic check
De-rapht coming live and direct
From the west to the south
North to the east
Check one two, check two three
It's like, mmm man my mum was never made of the money
Iron Maiden never running away from her sons and daughters
Always had food and water
Never knew how she afforded my Jordan's but bought em
I wore em till water would leek through the rips
Never looked poor like Oliver twist
Never wanted more
Or knocked on your door like I was a mormon
Swore never to be down or caught in a rip, nah
When money came in it was gone with the wind
On a shopping list longer then the Lord of the Rings
A sunny day you aint short of a thing
When ya born into a game holding four of the kings
Ha yeah believe it my dad was a musician
But bringing a bass drum to cook up in the kitchen
Wouldn't feed us, with all his get rich scheming
Feeding his demons
Life's a bitch
To sky rocket he forgot all the people in his locket
For a profit leave another man rotten
Notes in his pocket nailed in his coffin
Cause yesterdays pain aint forgotten
So can I get a price check?
Yeah can I get a price check?
On your life and the side effects
Of the money
The greed
The debt
The schemes
Check one two, check two three
Get a mic check
Yeah I'd rather get a mic check
De-rapht coming live and direct
From the west to the south
North to the east
Check one two, check two three
It's like, yeah, I knew this girl that you would sell your soul for
She would control your world like the cold war
No dole form swarm for the riches erection
Oh you gotta rex or a lexus
And this temptress will give you attention
And hence all you have to do is mention the money
Oh, it's like sex you got none you want it
Now she's all up in your wallet for the money
So can I get a price check?
Yeah can I get a price check?
On your life and the side effects

The greed
The debt
The schemes
Check one two, check two three
Get a mic check
Yeah I'd rather get a mic check
De-rapht coming live and direct
From the west to the south
North to the east
Check one two, check two three
Was always taught the root of all evil
He who will steal from the pocket of his people
Eagle-eyed survive in the dark
Ravenous sharks, welcome to the business
Oh I live this knocked off the hinges
Our offspring addicted to syringes of money
Axe-wielding civilian children kill for
Some Paris Hilton million dollar money
Some of these kids live the sunniest life
Still running from the law like Bonnie n Clyde
Still deal, still pedaling pills and rocks
Steal for what? You got all the dollar bills you want
It makes the world go round
It makes the world go
It makes the girls go down
It makes the girls go
It makes the world go round
It makes the world go
It makes the girls go down
