Songtexte What's Money - BigMookDaGodfatha feat. Boss Rico

Man, we live and direct, man, you know what the fuck's goin' on, man
They can trap my body, but they'll never get my mind and my soul, you know what I'm sayin'
I'm on a little vacation right now, surrounded by a bunch of suckas, bustas, and hoe truckas
But I'll be back before you know it, tell your bitch to throw it, straight like that
And know my niggas is top ten, that's a fact. Matter of fact, number one to be exact
Westnile and FME to the death of me, nigga. Boss Rico the General
You can't curse what's been blessed, nigga. OiNN

OiNN
All that time I spent chasin' time, I was wastin' time
Was tryin' to make me a blessing, found out was takin' mine away
I ain't gon' lie, I really wish it all was a dream
Tell me, what's money if we gotta die and it get left behind? Huh

What's money? Money's when you get your family up on they feet, yeah
Money's when you sendin' your mama on them retreats
Money's when you go get yo niggas up out them streets, yeah
OiNN
It still ain't enough money

All these loopholes thought I was it, but they tag me like a mook post
Protect my image, gotta wear it like new clothes. To ease the pain from dusk to dawn/Don, we got Julio
OiNN
I think my jigga movin'
I just popped a half
Everybody love jigga mookie
Spent the light bill money on some shoes I think I'm really stupid.
I just went to court for some late fees
I'm feelin' really foolish.
Talkin' to myself in the mirror, what is you really doin'
What if all the hard work and sacrifice ain't goin' nowhere
What if you just movin' in circles and ain't goin' nowhere
Your father gettin' sicker and sicker, life ain't treatin' him fair
And he told you hurry up and slide like he goin' somewhere

What's money? Nothin'
Daveed died from the corona, couldn't save my cousin

And if I lose my pops, carry the burden for all of my sisters
Same way it was for my brother
OiNN

What's money?

Money's when you get your family up on they feet
Money's when you sendin' your mama on them retreats

Money's when you go get your niggas up out them streets
Yeah. OiNN
It Still ain't enough money

And we just keep chasin' it, you know
I know somebody who chased it till they couldn't chase it no more, you feel me

I mean, he got everything a man could desire, you know
Big house, cars, wife, kids. Both parents come to the crib
Sunday dinner. I mean, he was born to winner, you know
But he said it just wasn't enough.
You know what I'm sayin'

That man chased it till he couldn't chase it no more for real
Every year. Somebody died, he don't go to the funeral
You know what he say?
He say, I'm goin' to work
He said he was focused, you know
He merched he would get it even if it cost him his family
He lost his favorite cousins, favorite uncles passin' away
You know what I'm sayin'? He say he just gon' go chase that paper
You know what I'm sayin'?
You know the Bible tells us those who chase riches will constantly fall in temptation and danger
You hear me?
And he was caught by his own stupid and harmful desires, you know,
Into his ruin and destruction

And Mark eight, verse 34 to 38, it says

For what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul

Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul
Huh?
