[Intro:Rooftop Scene from the movie Lottery Ticket]
I'm tired of this, man
I'm sick of worrying about WIC cards!
I'm sick of worrying
About the government
I can't eat!
I'm broke, n***a! l'm broke!
And you got the power
To change that, Kev
Nobody else. You
Kevin, if l had the money...
''lf.''
...not only would l give back...
...l would change lives
The sad thing is, you known me
For this long and you still don't get it
Bust a move, homey
[Chorus]
I had 4 quarters to my name
(Quarters, Nickels, Dimes)
Yeah i'll keep it a hundred
(Quarters, Nickels, Dimes,Quarters, Nickels, Dimes)
I'm 20 nickels in the game
(Quarters, Nickels, Dimes)
Cause I put in a hundred
(Quarters, Nickels, Dimes,Quarters, Nickels, Dimes)
I came in with 10 dimes
(Quarters, Nickels, Dimes,Quarters, Nickels, Dimes)
And They keep it a 100
(Quarters, Nickels, Dimes,Quarters, Nickels, Dimes)
I'm out here I'm getting mine
(Quarters, Nickels, Dimes,Quarters, Nickels, Dimes) whaaa?
(Quarters, Nickels, Dimes,Quarters, Nickels, Dimes)
In my pennies with a dime, nickel-plated nine
Should be kept in my quarters since they're contemplating mine
Yours too, porche coup
They jealous of the way you bring them hoes through
For street cred, your credits rolling next time that you roll through
Told you, cinema over, they put you into a coma
While I'm with my latest one, I'm steady bending her over
No baking soda, still mistake me for hova
Even though I ain't talking white, bare/bear with me like I came from the polar
Bear's toe nails, oh hell, oh well
She ain't living where I'm living cuz we know a ho tells
She the type to say she down yeah until the time comes
Nowhere found, in the meantime I'm tryna find somethin'
To poke on in the morning, then I doze off,and I'm yawning
Then I woke up, and I roze off, left a postcard and I'm gone and
She'll get the message and no I'm not a mysognist
I just love having pretty women ma**aging this
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
I swear I make that music just to ride to
Pa**enger side, she pretty fine, yeah she 5'2
Yea I could wife her, I only like her cuz she a nice view
Yea she want me now but she was fronting back in high school.. yeah
So what changed? not much, well except for everything
You stayed the same, showed no growth, meanwhile I'm switching lanes
Cause them pennies nickels dimes, quarters, couldn't pay a mortgage
So some n***as flipping burgers orders, some just hit the border
In the studio for years, a n***a ain't just start recording
This is years in the making, making music so importatnt
Making mulah too, I even want my trail blazing in Portland
Oh you didn't know? well it'd best for you review your sources
Cuz we hard spitting, moshpitting, kick a quick flow on these boss writtens
Go ghost on a ho real quick, real sh** cause we all know that she not different
Ask me where I went, I been masterminding the timing n***a
Cuz with two quarters I'm gonna get rich or die trying my n***a
Whoa
[Chorus]
[Outro:Rooftop Scene from the movie Lottery Ticket]
Is this what having money feels like?
Huh?
Everybody asking me for something?
People l ain't talked to in years
Calling my phone?
I don't want it, man
I heard this quote once:
''Money don't change you
It changes the people around you.''
You understand that?
