[Pre-Hook: King Los]
Being broke in this thing don't sit right
Do it for my folk, tryna get by
I came through the struggle with my head high
You being broke think you know what it feel like
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
[Hook: King Los]
Gotta keep the stove hot so it cook right, if everybody eating that's a good night
Headed to the lost why I took flight, the hard times made for a good life
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
[Verse 1: Lecrae]
Never fell in love with the Coco
Never had to hold up a store with the .44
Never had the door kicked in by the feds
Laying in the bed with the bread that I'm gon' blow
But I do know what it feel like to go to school with the knock off shoes
Eating free lunch, tryna act all cool, boy you better know that we paid our dues
Never would I trade that, nah
'Cause it made me better
It could have made me bitter
You can't ride with the struggle, can't name no figure, but it made me richer
Being broke made me rich, and being low made you quit
But being low made me high, take time if you don't get it
[Pre-Hook: King Los]
Being broke in this thing don't sit right

I came through the struggle with my head high
You being broke think you know what it feel like
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
[Hook: King Los]
Gotta keep the stove hot so it cook right, if everybody eating that's a good night
Headed to the lost is why I took flight, the hard times made for a good life
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
