Ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula
Miss me with the shh, I’m tryna get my bread up
Ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula
Miss me with the shh, I’m tryna get my bread up
Ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula
Miss me with the shh, I’m tryna get my bread up
Ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula
Miss me with the shh, I’m tryna get my bread up (Yeah, look)
I used to chase the rewards, nowadays, I feel rewarded by the chase, huh, funny how that works
Guess I had it backwards, a lesson to be learned in еverything I’m striving after back when I would want it fastеr
Shifted into second gear, had to make the message clear
Did it on my own, blood, sweat and tears, never fear
Y’all was never here, you was just some jealous peers
Always in the game, playin’ Snake like Metal Gear
I can polish off an Everclear, top it off with seven beers
Still don’t trust nobody else to ever steer
I’m the only person that would never veer, hopped in a van, watch it go, Van Gogh, how they lend a ear?
How many can we fit up in the bandwagon?
Funny how the ones that stood me up can’t stand it
Numbers goin’ up, might sell out the Grand Canyon
Lovin’ how I clawed to the top, Van dammed it (Woah)
Ayy, shout out to the new ones (Woah)
Yeah, shout out to the day ones (Woah)
Look, shout out to the real ones (Woah)
Yeah, shout out to the fake ones
I learned a lot from my enemies, so I keep ’em close
They show me what I shouldn’t do, so I’m keepin’ notes
One thing I’m noticing, a common thread between the foes
Money over morals, it seems that’s where the evil grows
Don’t get me wrong, go get the money, you need a home
But when it’s all you think about, you predisposed to a life where you tryna make the deepest hole
Keep on getting farther, but the light never seems to show
Thought the seeds would grow, but it decomposes
In the red, getting split like the sea of Moses
Greed is hopeless, we learned it from the Greek and Romans
Feed the homeless, and reach atonement, ’cause it
Ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula
Miss me with the shh, I’m tryna get my bread up
Ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula
Miss me with the shh, I’m tryna get my bread up (Woah, woah)
Ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula (Mm-hm)
Miss me with the shh, I’m tryna get my bread up (Yeah, yeah, what? What?)
Ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula
Miss me with the shh, I’m tryna get my bread up (Yeah, yeah, Sean don, ayy)
Delay my satisfaction
Manifest versus action, I’m barely scratching the surface
‘Cause what you know just a fraction
They tryna disturb my peace like I got an Atlanta accent
Say money’s the root of evil, but tell me, what’s evil backwards? (Erm)
Yeah, tell me, what’s evil backwards?
Sometimes, change your perspective will give you a different action
I told you boys that I’d do it, you simply watching it happen (Wait)
The bases loaded, I’m batting
I’m drivin’ slow in the fast one
I’m prayin’ to the Almighty Jehovah-Jireh, that one
Gotta keep my composure, people say anything behind closed doors for exposure
Sometimes seekin’ closure can open up a can of worms
With all the dirt I’m doing, swear they prolly just gon’ keep on growin’
Don’t listen to Connor when he say it’s not about the money
‘Cause let’s be real, you know he got a lotta money
But I get it, it’s not the end goal
It’s really just the asset, the vehicle to get to where you didn’t go, and get to where you get to grow
And money’ll magnify what you been on, so if you lame and get rich, you gon be—
Man, you get it, bro
Do this for the clique, if I’m going, then they coming too
You might throw up at the budgets that I’m runnin’ through
I used to chase the money ’til I realized it was runnin’ from me
Now, scratch that, I made a plan, now I’m the one that it’s runnin’ to
Fast track to that is doin’ what you love to do
100x the investment in myself when y’all lost faith, I knew that it was comin’ through
The difference is you did it for the cash and I did it ’cause I—
‘Cause I wanted to
Though it’s not about the money, it ain’t about the mula (It ain’t about the money, ain’t about the mula)
Even though it came, praise hallelujah, yeah
Sayin’ that I changed, I prolly never knew ya
