If Money Could Talk

Yeah
Lesson learned
Coming for the top now
If money could talk it'd be given me the silent treatment
Pockets empty pray to God just to break even
Slowly learning that a dollar sign can be deceiving
Couple paycheques enough to make me quit believing
Can't even stash a bit away because I know I'll need it
Any monthly surplus making room for breathing
Slowly learning that a dollar sign can be deceiving
I know it makes a different 'pending on how you perceive it

Impending rent live rent free in my head
After first of each month I feel like imma be dead
Funny how I always wonder why I'm short on bread
When I use my extra cash to go and paint the town red
Never worked in my favour once
I see people pay to win
Yeah sure they're building funds but also swimming in sin
Is there a worthy compromise so I can do both at the same time?
See the rise and the fall when I'm looking through the same eyes
I know I'm gifted but I wish that I was gifted more
Cause raw talent can't pay no bills
(No way)
Spirits lifted but I wish that they were lifted more
I always find myself turning to pills
When I'm down on the ground I'm surrounded by stress
But Lately I've just been around those who make me feel blessed
Thanks to the Lord
I'm getting outta this mess
And on my accords I can turn into the best version of me to ever walk the Earth
Cause to this day I'm still not sure about my worth
Still not sure about my work
Burdens laid upon us while we're down I know it hurts
But someday it'll pay off and we'll be out the dirt
I'm not concerned cause soon I know it's my turn
To blossom every digit I earn
Got more dollars than daily calories burned
Take a permanent vacation just to never return
Cause I live and I learn
Yeah I lived

If money could talk it'd be given me the silent treatment
Pockets empty pray to God just to break even
Slowly learning that a dollar sign can be deceiving
Couple paycheques enough to make me quit believing
Can't even stash a bit away because I know I'll need it
Any monthly surplus making room for breathing
Slowly learning that a dollar sign can be deceiving
I know it makes a different 'pending on how you perceive it
I won't ever make those same mistakes again
You live and you learn
Only way from here is up
I've had my low times
All those days are over
