Burnell Washburn - Money, Penny lyrics
"Money, Penny" Written by Burnell Washburn // Gratitude LP 2014 VERSE 1 I'm dead famous, but i'm no martar I got plugs like an iPhone charger your crew goes hard? mine goes harder you spend a lot of money but mine goes further i'm smart with my sh** i put heart in my sh** I deserve what I get, I work hard for my sh** I keep grindin - it's no krooked grind I just look for the light, I never look behind I'm focused, zonin didn't answer your call cause my phone was roamin' too busy to notice omens now i'm sittin' on a lotus "ohhmmin" yoga posin' - mix it up we like to smoke the potion coast to coastin' - o to ocean tryin' to deal with all of those emotions you know those days when you feel like sh**? and you don't know why you just feel like sh**? like why? do I feel like this? cause lately i've been dealing with some real life sh** just lost two friends in the past two weeks just got paid gotta make it last two weeks but ...I got bills to pay so it's safe to say I won't eat a meal today while Lil' Wayne makes another mil today I will fill a page with something real to say Lil' Wayne couldn't stomach my hunger pains it's a battle to the d**h like the Hunger Games but it's real - it's no fiction novel select your grade and lift the nozzle even if you've got drive - still need gasoline ain't nothing gonna thrive without magic beans say CHORUS Money, Penny, Dollar Money make that, take that money, penny Money, Penny, Dollar, Money 1 for the show and 2 for the .... Money, Penny, Dollar, Money more for the rich and less for the hungry Money, Penny, Dollar, Money, Make that, take that, money VERSE 2 I'm a rapper, not a politician all I ever wanted was for you all to listen never thought it was a game or a competition just thoughts in my brain on a composition notebook, look, i've got a lot of shows booked been through enough I could write my own book "how to get f**ed over every other day and still have a big smile on my pretty little face" i'm crazy, just like you if they don't let me in i'm gonna bust right through only takes a little bit to disrupt my mood probably cause I never knew a love like you been raining for a month and it s**s my dude but I feel it in the air there will be sunlight soon and no matter what I always love my crew but even they can really get to me sometimes too they hate Burnell but they love Stu like there's some kind of difference between us two the talk that I hear has got me coming unlglued didn't change for the worse man I just grew grew up, then I grew two nuts grew apart from a few who didn't give two f**s started chasing a dream, didn't wait for a thing stayed awake every night in my basement to sing now i'm gettin' it, I don't work for the man I work for myself and I work for my fans work hard for you, starved for you maxed out all my credit cards for you now i'm gettin' it, I don't work for the man I work for myself and I work for my fans work hard for you, starve for you 30 hour drive in the car for you I did it all for you, I broke my heart for you I need CHORUS Money, Penny, Dollar Money make that, take that money, penny Money, Penny, Dollar, Money 1 for the show and 2 for the .... Money, Penny, Dollar, Money more for the rich and less for the hungry Money, Penny, Dollar, Money, Make that, take that, money BRIDGE Money talks, doesn't mean you have to listen cause you could have it all and still have something missin' money talks, doesn't mean you have to listen just give it to your heart when you're making your decisions say CHORUS
