Medicine

E.I
Used to look down on us, now they wanna look us up, up, up

No dead president, just Benjamin
Hold the door open for me, what a gentleman
'Cause you know that they wouldn't let us in
You can go on and give 'em their own medicine
Will the root of all evil let us sin
Pearly gates, can you tell me what'll get us in
Matrimony to the money takes a toll
No debates if the pre-nup is your soul

Took a gamble on myself, I don't bet

Made a promise to myself, can't forget
Draw a blank only when I write a check
Who to thank for the jewels 'round my neck
Money tied up a noose, I need some peace of mind
Can't divide up the dollars in my grip
Try to slide up, I'm loading up a piece of mine
Money clip on my hip got me thinking
If the root of all evil's green, then I'll never be truly clean now
Dirty hands crown, the king is the money machine now
Burn these bands down, I'm adding it to my routine now
We'll never freeze now, burning the trees down
Yeah, loud, never turning these, down
Yeah, loud, give that shit to me, now
Yeah, vow never to be free, now

No dead president, just Benjamin
Hold the door open for me, what a gentleman
'Cause you know that they wouldn't let us in
You can go on and give 'em their own medicine
Will the root of all evil let us sin
Pearly gates, can you tell me what'll get us in
Matrimony to the money takes a toll
No debates if the pre-nup is your soul

Sex sells, but can you buy me love
I need chemicals to help me rise above
No, you can't take it with you when you go
Oh well, guess this life is all I know
You know the world is ending, so go get what you crave
Limited time we're spending, 'till we meet in the grave
Family tree, I'm tending to branches of my house
Money tree extending, the dollar is my spouse
Green thumb, planting the money sprout and then
We'll never go without again, got me motivated
Look at the diamonds in the watch, face exfoliated
Look at 'em, all they do is watch, they could only hate it
Now they know we made it, didn't think I would arrive
It was a hell of a drive, feeling alive, tryna survive
Look at the hand of time, it beckons, it can't be reversed
Why was I counting down the seconds, I'm headed to first

No dead president, just Benjamin
Hold the door open for me, what a gentleman
'Cause you know that they wouldn't let us in
You can go on and give 'em their own medicine
Will the root of all evil let us sin
Pearly gates, can you tell me what'll get us in
Matrimony to the money takes a toll
No debates if the pre-nup is your soul

E.I
Used to look down on us, now they wanna look us up, up, up
