Tonart: A minor
Verse 1
make money, money
Verse 2
Save money, money, save money, money
Am
Left high school at sixteen,
pick an identity
Entrepreneurial dreams,
find yourself a strategy
Next Saturday the class of
'97 is graduating
In a couple of years, I’ll grab a G.E.D
Verse 3
Am
As for now we’ll just make ends meet
Put our art in the place where
it’s forced to succeed
The place where your hobbies
and the real world meet
Forty minute walks to work
to bus tables full time
Verse 4
Am
With a pair of headphones on to
block out traffic going by
Forty back to make music all night
With a pair of headphones
D
Am
on to block out my life
Verse 5
Open mic nights, let the spit fly
Am
A hundred hands reaching
for the chance to try
And maybe I grew up a bit too quick
D
It can’t be all about the music,

So if you make money, money,
make money, money, money

make money, money, money)

save money, money, money)

We used to shop discount racks

Mix and match designer scraps

more successful

Sloppy and broke became the look

because it was affordable

Before it was fashionable Now kids pay good money

Verse 12
Am
I was told security with a cushion,
just in case
How can I plan for the future if I
can’t afford today?
Rap's a game that mostly
amateurs play
And there are very few professionals
that are getting paid
Verse 13
Am
Go on there indie rappers
and find your shtick
D
Throw it up against the wall
Am
and pray that it sticks
We used to say no gimmicks
but everybody’s got one
D
Am
No gimmicks, mine is that I’ve got none
Verse 14

Lost the truth, marketing honesty

The rap game is a sport
