Monopoly

'90s babies all grown up
Tryna meet our potential
Searchin' for success exponential
The world don't stop 'less its meant to
Only God could pose a threat to this world's sins like Ginyu
If Funkadelic was right, the young are on the menu
Being feasted on like seafood
12 to 16 years spent stuck in school
Got a degree, they still might not hire you
It's sad to see, feel like the world lied to you
If you get the job, they still might fire you
At will employment
So at will, I go from employee to employer
The key to settin' oneself free is through owning
They don't teach that in the curriculum you earned your diploma
It's not simply black versus white
It's rich versus poor
The rich get richer while the poor stay poor

The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
Life of monopoly, will you settle the score?
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor

Minimum wage
I remember the days, modern day slaves
Used to tell me that I couldn't wear my hair this way
Fast forward to the future, I make double the pay
Let 'em keep the chump change 'cause I still ain't changed
I know my worth, it could always be worse
It ain't nothin' that can stop me when I keep God first
Before I sell my soul, I'll sell you a verse
Why you out here sellin' nudes and ain't attempted to work?
Sometimes I feel I wasn't made for this era
Eye of the tiger so I move like Cabrera
Still a playa
Big Puns, no effort
I be playin' chess with people that's playin' checkers
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
But real wealth comes from your faith in The Lord
And you ain't never gon' see me broke no more
The rich get richer, but the poor need more

The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
Life of monopoly, will you settle the score?
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor

Difference 'tween wealth and rich, Chris Rock
Wealth is owning shit, rich is wrist watch
Wealth can't be lost, but riches can be botched
You should consider the cost, 'cause hell can be hot
'Hind every great fortune is a great crime
Sirens of those guilty in the lake fire
Yellin' at the top of their lungs
But no one hears
Now they see how poor folk feel
(Now they see how poor folk feel)
(Now they see how poor folk feel)
To gain the world, but lose ones soul
It's strange to me how it unfolds
Metaphoric origami
Live like a king for some decades
But burn for eternity
Imagine forever as a candle wick
With human senses and the flame is lit
This is the plight of the rich
For pillaging the Earth when the meek shall inherit it

The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
Life of monopoly, will you settle the score?
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
Life of monopoly, will you settle the score?
The rich get richer

The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
The rich get richer and the poor stay poor
Life of monopoly, will you settle the score?
The rich get richer
