The Money

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Loyle Carner] Clouds are few and far between, pristine My little brother caught battling the split screen My slim beam kept his dream and his lips clean Coming from the spot where everybody's got a 16 Some piff green or some tools to move I've got it all to prove, even more to lose We be seeing these morbid breders moving more confused So if we be walking with you, trust we thought it through I've seen man changed And rearranged, still a damn shame Life of caviar, cocaine, sipping the champagne Live at the mans, game focused on the campaign No time for Gs just rice, peas and plantain The plan's plain simple and set Nothing funny, needing the money, all the shit I can get Ripping the set, then I dip to the decks, gripping my cheque I promised my mum and brother that I'd deal with the debt And I can [Chorus: Loyle Carner] Damn, I need to make some money for my fam Damn, I need to make some money for my fam Damn, I need to make some money for my fam If you're chatting money you'd be better putting it in hand Damn, I need to make some money for my fam Damn, I need to make the money for my fam Damn, I need to make the money for my fam Better scram if you ain't part of the plan, better jam [Verse 2: Rebel Kleff] Time is money that I can't afford, it ain't cheap But I save stacks on my tracks because I make beats I'm in the lane remaining vacant to the mainstream When cats are just suckers for [?] never make cream I'm running off adrenalin when I chase dreams It may seem that I'm running late because since eighteen I've been making heat, creating beats But yeah my slate's clean The fact remains I can't shake it like a daydream But instead of looking past it in daze I stick to the script, go hard and time to sharpen the blade 'Cos working hard and getting parred off for a laughable wage ain't cutting it Pain's penetrating my aims, I've had enough of it Headed back home, hop on the mothership 'Cos I've got dubs to flip for all the cyphers that I huddle with I'm trying to let my money rise from the double Keep my eyes fixated on the prize for my troubles [Chorus: Rebel Kleff] Damn, I'm tryna make some money for my fam Damn, I'm tryna make some money for my fam Damn, I'm tryna make some money for my fam If you're chatting money you'd be better putting it in hand Damn, I'm tryna make some money for my fam Damn, I'm tryna make some money for my fam Damn, I'm tryna make some money for my fam Better scram if you ain't part of the plan, better jam [Outro: Loyle Carner & Rebel Kleff]
