[Verse 1: DnA (AnR)]
(Not tryna be a dinosaur and it's not a print)
(It's a mark that I wanna make on a persons before they're extinct)
(Cause there are things they need to hear what that mean coming from me)
(Doubt I'll ever be mainstream not the dollar it's the dream for me)
Aight word up, what if love were for sale
What if heaven was for sale
What if families were for sale
No one would have money for this world we call well
Off, but no one these days is well off, everyone now is so soft
No one can say they like their lifestyle, they just trying to show off
No one these days has actually learned to like what they have
Cause everyone else just likes to show what they have
And now everyone so focused on the rest of the world
Jealousy pushes crimes, and weight loss on our girls
Well to the rest of the world that hurls to peril or curls the pearl
And wants what they have, open your eyes
[Hook: DnA]
Money is a number and those go on forever
If you chasing money, then your chase will end never
I'm so close-minded with no multi-tasking
Life is a question that multiple are asking
What will I, how will I, why will I
What is my purpose, how will I die
How and what will I leave my legacy through
The dolla or the dream, what matters to you
[Verse 2: DnA (AnR)]
(You get an inspiration but that's only a part)
The work has to be done but intensities burning out)
Haven't done the full amount but walk up to someone else)
Show them what you have then ask, if they can make the difference)
Why we chase the dollas, when we can chase our dreams
Why we die for money, when heaven is for free
What if why we did what do, determines where we go
‘Why', ‘what', and ‘what if' ruling our lives
But what if not having enough is better than having it all
I mean doesn't it make us tough, every time that we fall
When Biggie and Diddy said mo money's gonna equal mo problems
Did you really think that you could find a different way to solve em
Our system is so on the ledge, and I might just jump off the edge
But what if money's the root of all evil, and we don't care bout the route of the people
And we want cash hoping that it can take us the height
But materialism won't matter when you die
[Hook: DnA]
Money is a number and those go on forever
If you chasing money, then your chase will end never
I'm so close-minded with no multi-tasking
Life is a question that multiple are asking
What will I, how will I, why will I
What is my purpose, how will I die
How and what will I leave my legacy through
The dolla or the dream, what matters to you
[Verse 3: AnR]
They, don't, talk about me
Haven't done enough
To form a conversation I only just begun
But when you haven't been heard of, any time before
You don't have to worry bout any ones, patience, but yours
A day seems so long when you write, record
Anticipating the outro
And while you wait
For the world, to be changed, by your hasty pen stroke
Sometimes you wanna go ahead and get ahead of yourself
It's good enough, next one, mix and master it bro
But this gotta be perfect
I gotta make sure
Don't want to LISTEN back and HEAR something I wasn't sure about
Cause everyTHING I write I plan on saying
And if Said then know I'm not gonna take it back
Don't want to look back and not be content
Nothing worse bout a finished project then having regrets
Like what if I rewrote this
Or said that over here
Would my lyrics not fall on people's inattentive ears
I believe in my words, but have this fear
Unless I'm rapping with Lecrae then my words won't Reach
Or mean a thing, to the people this message was meant for
If you're tryna get attention, put your foot through the front door
And make them turn their heads, at the sound of your entrance
Give em the gift of missing you whenever you exit
But start in them a glowing spark, they'll turn it to a blaze
With every word of encouragement and breath that they take
[Hook: DnA]
Money is a number and those go on forever
If you chasing money, then your chase will end never
I'm so close-minded with no multi-tasking
Life is a question that multiple are asking...
