lirik lagu money, power, respect – zavey

[hook]
money, power, and respect
from the perspective of a n-gga that ain’t had it yet
never let them see you sweat and always do your best
everything you do, make sure they never seen it yet

zavey [verse 1]
money the root of evil so people be k!lling people
the prisons are overcrowded and college ain’t getting cheaper
so many rappers and models, no doctors and ain’t no teachers
everybody stressed so we spend all our money on reefer
but wait, it gets deeper than the b-ss in the speakers
you try to find god but only meet greedy preachers
and we pledge our allegiance to a country that don’t need us
some rich, some poor, but they claiming that we equal
am i my brother’s keeper cause i’m a free thinker
can’t let my thoughts linger, they might put me in the sleeper
i’m running from the reaper cause i’m a overachiever
tryna turn them doubters into believers with masterpieces
they eyes on the dollar so i know they all see us
all around us steady screaming, i know cause i hear them demons
i’m still daydreaming trying to comprehend the meaning
of things i done seen but i wish i never seen it

zavey [verse 2]
power make them treat you like the man of the hour
especially if you got a gift like a baby shower
milk the game for what it’s worth ’til it turn sour
why do they wait until you die to hand you them flowers
i can’t live like no coward, i just keep moving forward
and keep my morals, i don’t listen to they foolish stories
cnn reporting some sh-t that just ain’t important
meanwhile, you unemployed and you can’t pay your mortgage
your sh-t together only when you’re stopping up the toilet
police brutality is something they always ignoring
til it’s another murder, a devastated mother
a lost brother of somebody that you never heard of
gas prices sky high so you barely be driving
now you wishing you ain’t vote for obama and biden
they worried about what charlie sheen do as a hobby
but posting fake pictures of osama bin laden

[hook]

zavey [verse 3]
pay respect where respect due
if you ain’t got money or power then i bet they neglect you
treat you like sh-t, even thrown sh-t at you
if you ain’t on the scene then i bet they forget you
try to make you believe that you ain’t nothing special
but you just do your thing and never stall like a restroom
count your blessings cause life lessons can test you
do what you gotta do and f-ck what the rest do
follow that rule and them haters won’t affect you
never let a n-gga disrespect you or check you
we in a food chain that’s survival of the fittest
it’s eat or get ate so which side are you picking
it’s slim pickings, the fast life is addicting
they love you up close but hate you from a distance
that’s why i hope you count your blessings through it all
you can gain a lot of power but still lose it all
