[Verse 1:]
Girl i gotta go so just tell me if you comin
Gotta run this bag up
Gotta get this money
Girl I gotta make sure that my momma and my daddy straight
If you ain’t what I’m on then you should gone and get up out the way
I know ain’t no way that I’m gone always be right here forever
So I gotta get this money
Gotta keep my shit together
Gotta make it through the weather
N***as try to play me “never”
I know if this shit don’t kill me it’s gone one day make me better
Cause I got mouths to feed
And I got bills to pay
And I’m gone blow that bitch
Before a n***a end my day
Don’t wanna kill my people
Pray they don’t get in my way
Right before you pull that trigga
Look yo brotha in his face

[Chorus]
Through the love and the cries and the pain
Wash away all the blood let it rain
I’ve done some things that taught me to have no fear
I know I really ain’t supposed to be here
I gotta get this “money” “money”
This “money” “money”
I gotta get this “money” “money”
This “money” “money”
Oh I just wanna take care of my kids
I know the life I live
Ain’t right forgive me for the shit I Did

[Verse 2:]
And they just look at me and they don’t know the struggle
They just think we out here wildin tryna kill each other
I swear this money cause us all to turn on one another
And now some n***a done killed Parish he was like my brotha
And then they wonder why we wanna give up hope
Cause all we know is hustlin and sellin dope
Just keep yo banga tucked and keep yo family close
Where I come from boy it’s a blessin to see “24”
They just don’t know a n***a tired of seein his homies die
Wish i knew god a little more so I can ask him “why”
They say he really comin back
We hope he “stoppin by”
He must be I’m keepin faith because I’m still alive

[Chorus]
Through the love and the cries and the pain
Wash away all the blood let it rain
I’ve done some things that taught me to have no fear
I know I really ain’t supposed to be here
I gotta get this “money” “money”
This “money” “money”
I gotta get this “money” “money”
This “money” “money”
Oh I just wanna take care of my kids
I know the life I live
Ain’t right forgive me for the shit I Did
