Another Dollar
Yaowa
Uh huh
Let me learn you somethin
Real quick ya heard
Check uh
Another day another dollar
Keep it hush
Like my dog's bark collar
Wealth is quiet
New money hollers
Holla is if you bust down
Your roley
I bust down property
Wit my homies
My real estate portfolio is an OD
The first of the month has a
New meaning
No longer slinging to those
Fiending on corners leanin
In fact I bought the actual
Building we would
Count the re in
Handing out the keys
To apartments we used to
Hide the keys in
Being mature has transformed
The language I speak in
Casual conversations wit homies
Sound like a business meeting
No red meat in my diet
I'm clean eating
Fish and poultry but
My bank account vegan
From all the green it's seeing
Generational wealth
I created myself
Well, me and the man upstairs
With his favor some help
Just run your race at your pace
And excel
Remember they won't think
You're worthy of the ring
Til you taking they belt
I done been through some
Storms when I couldn't
See the rain
I had sunny days when
I still seen the clouds
I done lived a life wit a heart
Full of pain, all this pain
In me couldn't change me
No doubt
No pain no gain
That's what this shit all about
I can't change for the fame
That's what this shit all about
I done made a way
When they said that we couldn't
Make it out
It's another day another dollar
Discussion wit a chiropractor
Who'd in fact wonder
How I feel at home under
The pressure they crack under
Horrified dawg we couldn't
Afford to buy a place and
Demoralized duckin all those
Court applied state plans
Mortified only resort was
Organized mayhem
Prioritizing to be more refined
As a made man
Wiseman sayin speak it
To existence gotta expect more
Rifle to your chest
Take my rightful spot
On the chess board
Couple bucks
Shout out to Lew Alcindor
To you I'll send a
Shot through ya luau
Used to wish I knew how
To get Lisa Anne's attention
She had her eyes on ballers
The Timmy Carter's
And Andre Iguodala's
I was broke and in Benihana's
Every entree equal dollars
Only hoped for some
Fendi Prada a Von Sway
Peaceful cottage uh
No easy routes to paradise
Man I know
Couldn't tell me it wasn't
Through the pair of dice
That I rolled in the alley
Wit my n***as who carried
Weight and we all there
Just knowing one small error
Could lead to us carrying weight
As one of our pallbearers
Literally blood to some degree
They keep on tellin us
Misery loves company
My misery pushed me
To build a company
And let the artillery buzz
If misery physically does
Come for me
I'm from a block bruh where
It's normal to not have
The proper care
Cause your papa bear barely
Knows you he's thoughtful
To thot affairs
Jeans by Rocawear
At school hiding rocks
In the locker there
Dock of the bay snare hits
While grandma rocks
In her rockin chair
Where wealth was on tv
Ricky Stratton
Desire filled the room
Familiar goons supplying
There's fire under
The silver spoon
Wit killers whom I've seen
Have one prior acquiring indo
Fire burns inside me
Due to gun fire
Outside my window
Where dealers got ex, percs
Weed, pills, got dope
Serve your dad and
Shake the room it's no tellin
What else your pop smoke
I'm fueled by havin a lot
On my plate
Been hurt disgruntled by
Feelin deserted before dinner
Dessert, go figure
Just humble pie
Where n***as run off
On connects often regret
They crept off
If I have to come collect
Then my dawg goin get
The collect call
Lost some friends
Some the bulk of their lives
Been spent in the feds
Unfortunately bout 40 percent
Of them dead
Or probably we foes
Cause sonically we opposed
They may have chased the coins
Started gettin tails
And it went to their heads

I done been through some
Storms when I couldn't
See the rain
I had sunny days when
I still seen the clouds
I done lived a life wit a heart
Full of pain, all this pain
In me couldn't change me
No doubt
No pain no gain
That's what this shit all about
I can't change for the fame
That's what this shit all about
I done made a way
When they said that couldn't
Make it out
It's another day another dollar
Oh oh it's another day
It's another dollar
Oh another day another day
Another dollar it's another day
Another day another dollar
It's another day another day
Another dollar
