[Intro: Method Man]
Cash rules everything around me
C.R.E.A.M., get the money
Dollar dollar bill, y'all

[Verse 1: Playdough]
The cream on the cake was packed with high fructose
My heart couldn't take the pressure of my glucose
Costume jewelry stock in which you boast
Cash took wings and fly but got too close
To the sun, it burns like Kid Icarus
Fat wallet weight gain, see if I fit in this
The loot on my leather suit was ridiculous
The suit fit tight, the feather was still ticklish
Gain the whole world, what you have to pay?
Day to day, daily bread and what I have to say
They told me cash is king
I told 'em Cassius Clay
Rope-a-dope hope floats until I pass away
Busy chasing my greed till I get exactly what I need
The combination made my eyes bleed
But it was just a pre-teen dream
A mic fiend
Middle school writing some sixteens
Of course I will flow off
They settin' Playdough off
Battlin' white kids to show off
So I got on the narrow route
I found an ill Deepspace5 clique and went all out
Catchin' wreck on emcees
Straight from the heavenlies
Every year I make like seven Gs
Yo, brothers respect mine
Jesus can check mine
Cha-pow
Open the gate now
[Hook: Method Man & Playdough]
Cash rules everything around me
C.R.E.A.M., get the money
Dollar dollar bill, y'all

Cash ruins everything around me
Greed, love of money
Root of all evil

[Verse 2: Heath McNease]
Leave it up to me and I'll beat the living proof
Delivering the boot when the Benjamin accrues
Kick a little truth to underprivileged youth
That young money talkin' is under civil review
Semi-translucent Inspectah Deck
Silver spoon born , brotha
Inspect the check
Signed and endorsed by my mom for my courses in college
Of course I was jobless and poor
Sippin' white Russians outta plastic cups
Diversified bonds, portfolio's bust
Upper crust, front of the bus, forty of us
Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
Zuckerburg and tedious media glitches
Fresh off the plane
Konnichiwa, bitches
Creme de la creme gonna swim to the brim
And compromise obstacles fencin' him in
[Hook: Method Man & Playdough]
Cash rules everything around me
C.R.E.A.M., get the money
Dollar dollar bill, y'all

Cash ruins everything around me
Greed, love of money
Root of all evil

[Outro: Heath Mcnease]
Money! Pay for gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
Money! Get back
I'm alright, keep your hands off my stack
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stack
Money! Get back

[Method Man]
Cash rules everything around me
C.R.E.A.M., get the money
Dollar dollar bill, y'all
