Open Mike Eagle - Very Much Money (Ice King Dream) lyrics

[Verse 1] Writing on the floor of a Chinese restaurant Crown on my hip like Simon Petrikov Thought of a song called 'Thinking of Master Plans' Reagan and Rakim drinking in Amsterdam Cafe back room meeting with cancer man Engineering project black astronaut The first scene in the film Prometheus I wrote a brand new story that starts from there Just need some help with the financing I ain't got nobody to pitch it to [Hook] My friends are superheros None of us have very much money though They can fly, run fast, read Portuguese None of us have very much money though They know judo and yoga, photography, politics Some of them leap over buildings Writers, magicians, comedians, astronauts None of it mattered when n***as was hungry My friends are superheros None of us have very much money though They wear the same underwear as billionaires None of us have very much money though Hustlers, beatmakers, drug dealers, sculptors Ego-maniacal authors and bloggers Some of them talk to the animals None of it mattered when n***as was hungry [Bridge] That sh**'s not valuable Come say it to my face That sh**'s not valuable Come say it to my face It's all disposable Come say it to my face [Verse 2] I was hoping this device might cure my remembering I'm eighty-seven percent sure I invented it High adrenaline I'm rapping on the cake boss Name on the dressing room, so I ain't lost Commencing countdown takeoff Another sound stage, rehearsing a fake space walk Lil' Wayne is an ancient African Jay-Z's been around since the 20s though The only new ones is Lil' B and One Be Lo We only got a hundred months to go Until your hometown's covered under tons of snow It goes one, two, three, four, five little Indians When it's all over I survive on the Pentium Chips, cinnamon flavored memory sticks And I'll flash, take a picture Cause I won't remember [Bridge] That sh**'s not valuable Come say it to my face That sh**'s disposable Come say it to my face It's not authentic though Come say it to my face That's so ingenuine Come say it to my face [Hook] My friends are superheros None of us have very much money though They can fly, run fast, read Portuguese None of us have very much money though They can make hair grease out of fruits and herbs None of us have very much money though They can take selfies like Dubuffet None of us have very much money though
