What is the purpose of Life? Sometimes it feels like the only reason we are here is to chase that piece of paper. If that is the case - what is the point? I say our purpose is deeper than that - and if money is a game we have to play - play it keeping in mind that it is all just an means to an end. Don't let the means turn into your end. Howedo.
lyrics
Its howiedo Ya'lll...
Its like...
One for the past
two for the present
three for the future thats looking quite pleasant
Four for my peoples that looking from heaven
and Five to get live with the money we chasing...(x2)
Whole life wasted chasing that paper
Use the same paper buy a chaser get wasted
Wake up next morning feeling great but basic
The way we see our lives we all need lasic..
We were told to ball - buy and have it all
Looking at the cost is for losers at the mall
try to act the boss, playing Rick Ross
every other rap song is a class on how to floss
Recession got raw, some lost their drawers
its a perfect time for you to buy out the bar
and buy all the cars, just do what you are..
Average in the land, of fake coins and broads...
Got plastic cards used to buy a mirage
Have money in your mind
but not money in your heart
it's like...
One for the past
two for the present
three for the future thats looking quite pleasant
Four for my peoples that looking from heaven
and Five to get live with the money we chasing...(x2)
Live to get money so money we get
Money said to fly off a bridge? We jet..
Dollar signs signal your role like presets
now Its hard to reverse the flow like reset
Searching for meaning found money instead
Make money your god and the devils in your head
Level with your heart and straight up with your bread
Take a picture from afar - not a picture from your chest.
Take a look around - see what you have found
Money was a servant but he stay a master now
We the bastard child in need of cash cow
suckle till we draw but the milk is green and foul
Life gives meaning but money takes life,
money takes meaning and convert it into strife.. Hello..
it's like...
One for the past
two for the present
three for the future thats looking quite pleasant
Four for my peoples that looking from heaven
and Five to get live with the money we chasing...(x2)
