MONEY (2019)
MONEY
We spend our whole lives collecting things that we don’t need
we come into this world without any air to breath
Screaming bloody murder As our lungs go into use
The first smile on our lips Is from the love felt in the room
It costs money to be born
Money when you die
But it’s funny that the money
Don’t bring purpose to your life
Live and breath for love, love, love
In a room smelling like flowers he fades faster every day
Family all around him but not knowing what to say
He is ready for what’s next he aint leaving too soon
The last smile on his lips is from the love felt in the room
It costs money to be born
Money when you die
But it’s funny that the money
Don’t bring purpose to your life
Live and breath for love, love, love
Our obsession with possessions is raising important questions
like why aren’t we double guessing the link that’s between depression
and trading our self expression to fit with modern perceptions
of how men should spend the time before their spiritual accession, yo
Money is the means to an end if ain’t a purpose
You could have it all except love and it becomes worthless
Fancy possessions might feel good on the surface
But that emptiness will not be filled with a purchase
You gotta Benz and a yacht and the house on the bay
with nobody to share it at the end of the day
Gotta chest full of jewels and the monogrammed shirts
But nobody crying when they put you in the dirt, yo
nine rooms and a safe full of cash, fake friends loving you for your stash
But then when the drugs don’t last, holidays spent alone in an oversized castle
In conclusion happiness won’t be bought or sold, consumerism consumes the soul
It costs money to be born
Money when you die
But it’s funny that the money
Don’t bring purpose to your life
Live and breath for love, love, love
