Money

[Verse 1]
Tryna be a good man, tryna be a true man
Not doing much but I'm doing the best I can
Not to be cynical and keep my principles
But money gets in the way of life

Tryna have morality but the monetary-
Mathematics can make it so pragmatic
Tryna make the right choice, not listen to the voice
That says money is the way of life

Looking for the right girl, looking for a good girl
Looking for something right in the wrong world
Wanna make a family and live with them happily
But money gets in the way of life

[Chorus]
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
'Cause money, money, money, money
Money is the way of life

[Verse 2]
Tryna be kind-hearted, tryna get started
Makes it hard to have a good heart in the world market
Tryna have a purpose beyond the money surplus
But money gets in the way of life

Tryna be positive, tryna be constructive
But financial figures can be so seductive
Tryna get an education but the money-making
Makes money get in the way of life

Tryna earn a living but whatever I'm giving
Maybe make a million 'fore inflation hits the ceiling
Tryna find the temple for spiritual investment
But money gets in the way of life

[Chorus]
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
'Cause money, money, money, money
Money is the way of life

[Verse 3]
It's what about what a man earns, what a man owns
All about the FTSE, all about the Dow Jones
All about the interest on the bank loans
Money gets in the way of life

All about share price, all about stock price
All about the points at the close at the end-of-night
All about the currency, all about the indices
Money gets in the way of life

All about the paper, all about the plastic
All about the cheque only if you cash it
It's an idea that's abstracted
Money is the way of life

[Chorus]
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
'Cause money, money, money, money
Money is the way of life

[Chorus]
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
Money, money, money, money
Money gets in the way of life
'Cause money, money, money, money
Money is the way of life
