Greed & Green

Since I was nine, I payed no mind
And never voted for The President
But since ten? Shit, Ben Franklin been my best friend
Jackson was my cousin
Grant got me through thick & thin
Washington & Lincoln kind of grew distant
Heard little from my Uncle Hamilton
He was a noble man
Huh shit, we were the coldest fam
Deep in the pockets of every older man
Younger boy, girl or child
Took trips overseas, so we worldwide
Over there, they call us greenbacks
But here, we call us dollars, funds
Get your hands up if you got some (Holla)
Under criticism by some scholars
They say our attraction to those who want cash
Only lead to more problems
Serious ones! People lose they life over paper
If we get in the wrong hands
See you later, alligator
Tell me, now would you kill for a stack of new bills
Take a cruise around the world & chill
Think about it

Greed will have you do strange things
It'll make you turn against your fa
Using mischievous deeds for
Green which they say is the root of all evil
Yet rules everything around me
And even some people succumb to
Greed will have you do strange things
It'll make you turn against your fam
Using mischievous deeds for
Green which they say is the root of all evil
Yet rules everything around me
And even some people that I know

Some of y'all niggas got a fetish
Like them fiends on the curb
Steady scheming on herb
A week later, already screaming for work
Look I done seen & heard
Some of you squeamish birds
Fiending for everything I bring to the burbs
Watching me with your eagle eye
Peripheral vision, I see you evil guys
Don't worry, everything's legalized
Don't worry, I got them nines for you
Pines for you, just so your moms know your gone
So long, niggas been greedy for the throne
Wack rappers leave me alone
I'm something you can't condone
Slam niggas down like bones
To the fact they can't come home
I done loaned my style to many of you petty amateurs
I ain't gone say your style is bad
I'm just a little better than yours
So hold your head to the floor
Your rhymes I read them before
But damn, just understand I come to settle the score
Look I won't dog out the needy
Like fat niggas, you greedy
In fact, I think y'all niggas just need me
B-Eazy

Greed will have you do strange things
It'll make you turn against your fam
Using mischievous deeds for
Green which they say is the root of all evil
Yet rules everything around me
And even some people succumb to
Greed will have you do strange things
It'll make you turn against your fam
Using mischievous deeds for
Green which they say is the root of all evil
Yet rules everything around me
And even some people that I know
