Reflection Eternal - Ends lyrics

[Intro - Talib] Ayo, you gon' put in on this one? Why am I the only one purchasing sh** man Ay, go ahead and kick it on in Kick it in! Kick it In! Everything, is gonna be alright...oh yeah [Verse 1 - Talib] Strong arm robbery Ponzi scheme, our foreign policy War in the name of democracy A lottery, a plot to run up in your private property Cop a key, break it down, and call it the ricotta Or the fetti - that's a lotta cheese Enough to make the innocent cop a plea And stabilize economies, shopping spree Copped a V, we stay driven by a lotta greed The saddest sight is when the parasites bottom feed The game of Monopoly, a terrorist bombing spree Planes falling out the sky, like we was a Lockerbie Look into the heart of a thief You might go on vacation, become a patient Somebody taking your artery My lyrics merely taking a picture, this is photography Obviously for some the poverty really hard to see Honestly, I've come to the stage rock properly I like my pockets fat, not flat Word [Hook - Bilal] Spending up all my time making ends For all the money It's the only thing on my mind, right now That matters Tried to change my mind [Verse 2 - Talib] Gotta check? Let me underwrite it Spendin' money on the flesh, attention undivided The promise of funds got ‘em strip to their undergarments For the skrilla, they willin' to diss your mama Like the show with Wilmer Valderamma I grind harder cause I gotta live My ancestors swung from the ropes Now my knot is thick This is Apocalypse Now, rising to prominence Never go against the family, it's Godfather sh** My hypothesis, stop your breath like an octopus Gettin' hold of your esophagus Try to rob, I'll pop you quick Promise you will not evict On a reconnaissance mission for where the profit is No I'm not the office type, quite the opposite Despite accomplishments, I'm hungry as a starving artist is The knowledge from this metropolitan perspective More effective than scholarships to the best colleges [Hook - Bilal + (Talib Ad-libs) ] Spending up all my time making ends (Kick it In! Kick it In!) For all the money It's the only thing on my mind, right now (Ay man, gimme my money!) That matters Tried to change my mind [Outro - Talib Ad-libs] So basically, the moral of the story is: Go get it, man It's the only thing right now that matters I heard somebody say: “Money is the root of all evil” Don't believe that man It's the love of money, the pursuit of money That's the root of all kinds of evil, man.. So, Yo - somebody owe you money and they ain't pay up Tell ‘em you got five seconds... You got five seconds - gimme my sh**! (Laughs) 5...4...3...2...1!
