歌曲 | Fo 'Da Money |
歌手 | The Coup |
专辑 | Kill My Landlord |
作词 : Davis, Riley | |
Ahhhhhhh yesss, ah-heh | |
Tell me somethin | |
Were you, about to make a decision? | |
Was it, one of... those decisions? | |
Ya know, when ya, gotta decide, between | |
What's good, for you, and what's good, for the struggle | |
Well before you sellout, the coup wants to tell you a lil' story | |
E-roc, kick it | |
[e-roc] | |
Pressure, is gettin to my dome | |
See, i need some food for my little boy's tummy | |
Pulled up a chair just to think about my situation | |
Don't have a job, cause jackin is the occupation | |
Fuck the system, you know that it's all wrong | |
I got my gauge, yeah now my mission's on | |
Checked on my baby, good he was sound asleep | |
Cause money was my thoughts as i began to creep | |
Down the street the corner sto', was on my mind | |
Freeze! with the sounds of clips was in my behind | |
I turned around but befo' i could pull my trigger | |
In they ass, on the ground, laid another nigga | |
I was trippin, slippin labelled as a dummy | |
But can you blame me, i did it for da mo-ah-money | |
*chorus* | |
M-o-n, n-e-y (repeat 2x) | |
Broke as a; broke as a sucka! | |
(repeat all 4x) | |
[e-roc] | |
Back on the streets i thought i wouldn't survive | |
So i'm bustin my ass on this nine to five | |
Flippin patties all day when the place is hot | |
Gettin paid peanuts, in the burger shop | |
Now everybody wants to know the deal, is this brother real | |
Can i feed my family off of a happy meal? | |
I had to stop cause this shit ain't for e-roc | |
I threw down my time card and started slangin rocks | |
For a brother dis is some'in you can't beat | |
My cash is flowin, now i'm bringin home the meat | |
I'm feelin good sellin crack to a fiend | |
Don't give a fuck about his luck, ya know what i mean? | |
People trip, but they don't understand that | |
A devil's land, ain't no black foe a black man | |
Now it's a shame, but who's to blame? | |
I got a baby with a life and no future to gain, yeah the money | |
*chorus* | |
[e-roc] | |
I remember the time when i was six | |
The american dream was everybody gets, rich | |
But yo, a fact for all to know | |
Four hundred years has passed, and we still po' | |
He ain't my uncle, but sam know what he's talkin about | |
If you wanna get paid, sell your people out | |
But not me i'd rather do a crime | |
Deep in my rhyme; is it better for a black man to do time? | |
To the red white and blue i don't give a fuck | |
Because i live and die, just to make a buck | |
So i'm that mother-fucker | |
That rob his daddy, and threw his ass in the gutter | |
And i'm that fool | |
That sold his kids cocaine at school | |
But jack's an attorney | |
So i'ma do what i do, cause he's makin all the motherfuckin... | |
*gun shots* | |
[boots] | |
I believe.. truthfully, we all gonna die someday | |
So, die hustlin for yourself | |
Or die hustlin for millions of your people | |
The choice is yours, choose your fate | |
You can get with this, or you can get with that | |
We out | |
*chorus* |
