Make The Money Meaning

[[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
Classroom of kids or a venue performing
If I’d done it for the money, I’d have been a fucking 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

[Chorus]
Make the money, don’t let the money make you
Change the game, don’t let the game change you
Uh, I’ll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
I said, make the money, don’t let the money make you
Change the game, don’t let the game change you
Uh, I’ll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
, [Verse 2]
Forget about the fame, fortune, and the mansion
Sitting and trippin’ watching myself on a plasma
Yeah, I start slippin’ when I’m thinkin’ about that stuff
Ego once swollen ’til karma catches that up, that up
I’m my grandma’s number one grandson
I lost myself to remember who that was
We start thinkin’ 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 drugs
And I had to find out who I really was
Uh, 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

[Chorus]
Make the money, don’t let the money make you
Change the game, don’t let the game change you
Uh, I’ll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
I said, make the money, don’t let the money make you
Change the game, don’t let the game change you
Uh, I’ll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
, [Bridge]
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
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

[Chorus]
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
Stay true, stay true
And I said, 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
Stay true, stay true, stay true

[Outro]
Forget about the fame
I said, forget about the fame
I’ll forever remain faithful
Stay true, stay true, stay true]
