Dollar Sign Eyes

Nine five, grew up as a nice guy
All changed when I got the dollar sign eyes
All changed when I got it for the right price
All changed when I decided to write rhymes
Fuck hype, I write it for the zeitgeist
Other guys they just isn't in they right minds
Keep a tool in my belt like I fight crime
I live in the right place in the right time
With the crew in the stu like a hive mind
Makin moves outta view from your eyesight
You'll never do if you wait til the time's right
I rhyme tight trynna make it to the limelight
My girl fine Sandra Bullock in the blindside
Remember walkin after work in the night time
In December cold as hell dodgin ice
I had Pharrell in my headphones sayin' We gon be alright

Now I'm doing what I like
Workin' makin money puttin' lyrics in the mic
Back when I was 20 and convinced that I was right
I'd put knowledge in a song and hope to blow up overnight
Now I always take my time
It'll happen or it doesn't either way I'm gonna grind
Always knew I had it but I never gave it time
Now I'm always in my bag like there's somethin I'm trynna find

Damn

Why you hatin' from the sides?
The players ain't distracted from the game because you cry
Creators make it happen while you standin idle by
Criticizin' somethin you can't ever fuckin try bitch
Don't try and deny it
You ain't on that fly shit
You a bum mother fucker
And always trynna lie shit
Baby momma gotta buy shit
You a dumb mother fucker
Fuck rent buy drugs mother fucker
Run off on the plug mother fucker
(God damn, shit's sad)
You a where's my hug? mother fucker
You gets no love mother fucker
(That's facts, you mad)
Imma get these funds mother fucker
Slip once you a done mother fucker
(You lack, get cracked)
Loyalty goes far mother fucker
Imma show you who really got the bars mother fucker

(God damn)

It's a switch I can flip it when I wanna
I can dumb it down and spit about these zips of marijuana
I can speak on politics or how this climate's gettin hotter
Or how our presidential puppet really wanna fuck his daughter, uh
We can talk about this lead up in the water
Or the government's relationship with ISIS or Osama
Or Operation Northwoods, Project MK-Ultra
They funnel guns and drugs and send the feds to come assault ya
Yeah
See in school they never taught ya
Prisons is a business people's lives can still be bought yeah
They put you in the system the first time that you get popped
And keep you in position cuz they want you in that box man
Yeah
So keep your shit on lock man
