Better Than Money

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Man I been hustlin and I been strugglin But I swear to God that shit is so humblin I don't depend on no help from the government They let they pockets grow, while we are sufferin I'm independent and i'm really lovin it My music is starting to go where I want it Remember the time we were stumblin Yeah we got lost and we needed some compasses When we was broke, we had noodles for supper Then open the cupboards, there's little or nothin in And, boys in the hood selling drugs again Till they get locked up by cops in the dungeons And all of my brothers that's gonna look up to them Hoping they save me a spot when I come up to them Back in high school we were so full of trouble Then smoking my weed, in then class we was bunkin it Then I was hustlin Up in the streets all my homies belonged to the numbers And I was so innocent, I saw so much with them All of the pain and emotion, was crumblin All of they feelings and pills they was crushin it Look in they jeans, there's probably a gun in it The plan is for human destructiveness I do not know how the planet has come to this But we still hustlin, it is too much for him All of the pressure can feel like a ton of bricks That I am carrying I lift it up then put all the weight on my shoulders My muscles big I am discovering Money is evil but everything And it's puzzlin Sometimes I feel I had enough of this So this is me writing my bucket list [Chorus] If I got my mommy and somebody loves me And I got my brothers and food in my tummy I rob from the rich and give to the hungry Just so they hug me and to see them smiling It's better than money It's better than money It's better than money It's better than money If I got my mommy and somebody loves me And I got my brothers and food in my tummy I rob from the rich and give to the hungry Just so they can hug me and to see them smiling It's better than money It's better than money It's better than money It's better than money [Verse 2] My head is a jungle and I'm on the jungle gym Feel like I'm playing at school and I'm young again On jump street and I'm 21 again Feel like I'm Channing, I feel like I'm Jonah Hill I am uncovering All of the talent that they could not see when it was right in front of them You do not know what you up against I am as strong as a weightlifter's supplements And I was hustlin, wanted the finer things and all the diamond rings But it means nothing when they at yo funeral And they are burying your body down in the grass And you pray for him Yeah he was hustlin Now is the time to take on this punishment Return to the earth as nourishment You food for the worms and they munching it Ja we was butcharing hoping God's watching him This is the end of his life, no more luck for him Gave all our love and we hope it's enough for him When he's at heaven gates, please open up for him Yeah it's a fucked up thing, indeed But this life is only a dream So try and believe In more than material needs, it's hard but this what I mean [Chorus] If I got my mommy and somebody loves me And I got my brothers and food in my tummy I rob from the rich and give to the hungry Just so they hug me and to see them smilin It's better than money It's better than money It's better than money It's better than money If I got my mommy and somebody loves me And I got my brothers and food in my tummy I rob from the rich and give to the hungry Just so they hug me and to see them smilin It's better than money It's better than money It's better than money It's better than money
