Uncle OsKer
$$$ on my MiND
[Hook 1]
Money on my mind and I can't get it out
They makin' it rain, I'm livin' in a drought
Money on my mind, money on my mind
Money on my mind, money on my mind
[Verse 1]
Thinkin' bout how money control our life
Sellin' our souls to purchase worthless merchandise
I wonder how we discuss and fight over numbers
Some bust they ass
Others battle suicide, in their cubicle
Blue collar white collar either way we're all on leash 'til we're deceased, just for some dollars
I mean I've even seen, a vegetarian (a vegetarian)
Workin' for ends meat (ends meat)
Plus everything's a business trynna lend you their service
But in my borrowed time I rhyme (I rhyme)
My flow is like gold
Hip-hop has my interest, at this rate
The best I can do is be alone and not get paid
Be broke accept the loss
'til my death I hope to be my own boss
I'm only thinking out loud whenever I shout
Fuck profit
[Hook 2]
Money on my mind and I hate that it is
This business about paper and I'm still goin' in
Money on my mind money on my mind
Money on mind money on my mind
[Verse 2]
I see it on the streets, I see it on TV
It's all about the Benjamins
Men and women alike
It dominates the thoughts of so many
They calm, we fightin' over pennies
It doesn't make sense to me to change for a check
I didn't expect when ya boy coined a flow
That I'd only receive a dime for every dollar sold
Hold up
You mad at her cause she wants your money which is your bread
But you focused on her ass instead which are her buns see
We only focused on security and reproducin'
Which is why most of our society's losin'
And I refuse to fall into the routine that seem
As long as I live I gotta work and I'm workin' to keep livin'
The system's evil
Just dig a little bit deeper and you'll see
Money's at the root of it all
[Hook 3]
Money on my mind and it's probably on yours too
We live in a society driven by revenue
Money on my mind money on my mind
Money on my mind money on my mind
[Verse 3]
And I can't get it out
Even when I'm sittin' down on the couch with my mom conversatin' late at night
Just one light on upstairs
We discuss two weeks from now and two weeks ago
My sister, my niece which leads to my older brother
And then the younger
I hear rain, see lightning, soon will come thunder
But before it does she brings up my career
She doesn't understand rappin' she calls it singing
You should go back to college, to get some solid footing
Mijo necessitas a mantener a tus hijos
Vas a ver es vien duro, te lo juro
It's more than food in the fridge, your house mortgage
You're stressed out cause you're sick and you have to miss work
Bill collectors don't give a fuck about your plans to be rich
I know you don't care about it but listen to me
It's necessary
