Statik Selektah - Time Is Money lyrics

[Hook:] Eyo, It's my time to get it Sonny Reminiscing on times that we was hungry But this time is for the money Yeah, cause you know that time is money right? Yeah, cause you know that time is money right? [Verse 1:] The long-awaited on a path, not at all related To the one that I walk by, that my momma hated When I had a son incarcerated Didn't see me become another statistic cause my father skated beyond elated She can see how far I made it, behind bars not a world of the bars created Bring it to life the the [?] that I contemplated Taking my spot, can nobody confiscate it Now who's the best [?], I'll let y'all debate it But mention my name, won't none of y'all negate it Until my crib is enormous and my yard is gated I keep them food for thought, hoping y'all had ate it I [?] with Big Nas and Jay Call it what you want I preserve the Cocho while y'all degraded I'd be dead for my son, and my daughter naked But life has two options, you start with taking and Im'ma take it [Hook:] [Break:] Time is money, I ain't wasting either I ain't running around try'na chase these diva's Might get a little face from [?] when they face eyes skied up [Verse 2:] I'm off try'na make my G's Ain't no time for me to place my feet up You know my little sis need some plates to eat up Go ahead and blaze your weed up And inhale strong until it takes you to that place need to be Come on this ride while I lace this beat up Give you nothing but truth ain't no fake to feed ya MC's I see through that fake demeanor Couldn't walk in my shoes, couldn't lace my sneakers Easy flow, unbelievable we needin' dough Ain't nobody making peace and I Got a good look at these facial features Soon it's gon be one of the greats you see at the top of this [Hook:]
