Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
Money
- I had the idea of going to the mall
- Where gettin' expensive shit made you stand very tall
- Spendin' money wasn't Mom's top priority on the list
- But my wish came true my ride to the mall was bliss
- Texting my girl, as I ride to the store
- Thinkin' 'bout what I'm gon' get her we leave at fo'
- Closer and closer to the mall, here we go
- Closer and closer to the mall, and I'm thinkin' of all the shiny shit
- I equip myself wit a fashion sense that can make me hit
- My mama gives me 100 dollars looks me right in the eyes, she stares
- Gives me another 100 and says, "If you dare
- If you dare spend the whole 200 dollars in one visit
- I'll beat your mothafuckin' ass spendin' all that's illicit
- So then I walk away lookin' at all the different stores
- Walkin' in and out of doors, I don't have to do chores
- 'Cause we at the mall all day, gettin' somethin' for my bae
- Flyin' away to a new place in my mind today
- I'm spendin' all of these dollas
- (Instrumental chorus x8)
- Skippin' through the mall thinkin' I'm so rich
- I'ma get somethin' special and expensive for my bitch
- She gon' love me 'till the end of time until I finish spittin' these rhymes
- But what I'm doin', I don't realize it's a victimless crime
- Walkin' to the shoe store, 'bout to get me some fresh ass kicks
- My bricks in my pocket, people is watchin', I'm walking so quick
- Bought me a pair of fresh Nikes they were hundred twenty
- I didn't give a fuck cause I had some more money
- I'm stayin' fresh pants and shirt on sale along with some socks
- Tough as an ox I've got twenty dollars left to rock
- Get my bae a twenty dollar watch covered in fake gold
- But she wouldn't notice the expensive watch was money cold
- Spent all my money on shit I reach in pockets
- Got my new shirt, pants, shoes, socks for my closet
- No more money left, now I'm scared as hell
- Now my phone finna get shelved
- I'm spendin' all of these dollas
- (Instrumental chrous x8)
- Walkin' through the mall with my head down
- Thinkin' why'd I spend this much, oh yeah, because I'm brown
- Carryin' three bags each wit somethin' expensive in it
- I see my momma, I'm in trouble, I didn't win it
- She says, "Give me the change from the 200 dollars I gave you"
- "Give back the 200 dollars I reluctantly paid you"
- I'm hesitatin' reachin' in my pockets, man, I'm not elated
- My mind's kinda faded, my experience jaded
- Momma looks at me says, "Boy where is my money,
- You don't have it do you, what? You sad? Don't look at me funny"
- That was a test you've failed, I'll beat you when we get home
- And you're on punishment, son, you should give me your phone."
- Get back to school, my girl says "Why didn't you text me?
- I was tellin' you that I though you were so sexy
- So just for that I got me new hot boyfriend"
- I cried the weekend after that cause that girl was sent by God's hand
- (Instrumental outro fades)
