Andrew Joslyn - Make the Money lyrics

[Verse 1] Now, this is my job, I will not quit it Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance That's just the work, regardless of who's listening, listening Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious Cla**room of kids, or a venue performing If I'd done it for the money I'd have been a f**ing lawyer Concrete, vagabond, van telling stories Humbled by the road, I'm realizing I'm not important See life's a beautiful struggle, I record it Hope it helps you maneuvering through yours and That's why we stay in the lab at night I've been staring into this pad for over half my life A true artist won't be satisfied So I guess that's the sacrifice And I say [Hook] Make the money, don't let the money make you Change the game, don't let the game change you I'll forever remain faithful All my people stay true, I say Make the money, don't let the money make you Change the game, don't let the game change you I'll forever remain faithful All my people stay true [Verse 2] Forget about the fame, fortune and the mansion Sitting and tripping watching myself on a plasma Yeah, I start slipping when I'm thinking about that stuff Ego once swollen until karma catches that up, that up I'm my grandma's number one grandson I lost myself to remember who that was We start thinking about some kicks, necklace What I really need is a job off CraigsList Take away the dot com, name, love Fans, Twitter followers, and the buzz See, you keep the issues but you take away the d** And I had to find out who I really was Who I really wasn't So sick of who I was becoming Yeah, tired of running Time to look at the man in the mirror until I can learn to love him [Hook] [Bridge x2] Of course I want dubs and a candy-painted 'lac Watch the videos and get the girls in the back But if that's what I believe in, and the reason that I rap Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track [Hook] Forget about the fame I said forget about the fame I'll forever remain faithful Stay true, stay true, stay true
