Money Orientated
When I watch TV
Then I see all them people and all them fine homes they live in
And all them nice cars, they drive
Then I get all full of ambition
You tell me what Im supposed to do with all this ambition that I got
My mentality is money-orientated
Im destined to live the dream for all my peeps who never made it
Yo, paper chase the money
But never pray for money, only pray for wisdom
Cause nobody can take that from you
You can always tell them niggas who aint used to making money
Cause them niggas annoying when they finally start making money
Yall taking pictures of stacks, is that what yall want me to see?
Yall can count them stacks to this peak, that aint no money to me
To make a hundred legally, that was my first big plan
I quit my job, then next week I made my first ten bands
Grew with niggas who use triggers just to stop the bullshit
You gon need God to safe your life, cause the doctors couldnt
That tough shit dont mean nothing when they cock and pull it
Toughest nigga in the world still couldnt box a bullet
Yo, I got family thats behind walls and they caved down
Went in a Christian, now its Allah when he praying now
Thats when I realized that jail and death is where this money dont matter
Cant buy my way into heaven when he judging me after
My mentality is money-orientated
My mentality is money- orientated
My mentality is money-orientated
My mentality is money-orientated
I'm destined to live the dream for all my peeps who never made it
Look, you say in God we trust
But Ive seen Gods people sell their souls for you
Good girls turned into strippers on poles for you
Youre a poor mans dream but they tire you to evil
Thats what Christ told disciples in the bible, they teach you
He tried to give advice to his people
Compared a rich man to a camel through a eye of a needle
You only live once, but if you live it right its a sequel
I felt trapped but this money make my life feel like freedom
You put the clothes on my back with designer labels
First star meals, sitting at my plate you held me by the table
You felt like heaven on earth
Its hard to leave you but I got to cause my father gon expect me in church
Granny said: 'you cant grow money on trees from the earth'
But if you could then that explains why Eve bit it first
Thats when I realized that jail and death is where this money dont matter
Cant buy my way into heaven when he come for the rapture
My mentality is money-orientated
My mentality is money-orientated
My mentality is money-orientated
My mentality is money-orientated
Im destined to live the dream for all my peeps who never made it
