lyrics

When the money goes, will the honeys stay?
Will the grey skies replace the sunny days?

That's a question you gotta ask yourself
When the goal is amassing wealth
Arrogance is common when you can't see past your belt
And them rings getting pawned when the pressures felt
You know the story/American dreams turned to glory
Watch it fall down suicide in his 40s
Now the wife fighting with the kids for the Porsche's
A shame what'll happen when we turn into corpses
Worked ya whole life to have friends on your porches
Reading what the banks about to do to your mortgage
Still gotta maid & a porter
Cause you gotta keep the show going like...WandaVision
And if you dont, she won't have time to visit
My wallet my choice just ain't realistic
Money ain't the root uts the stage design
Its gon show who you are when it's just the right time

Mic check 2 1 2, you know the vibes
Coming to you live for 1.99$
If know the words please sing into the mic
And if you dont, well we gon double the price
Mic check 2 1 2, you know wassup
And if you don't... well I'm sorry for your luck
Spouse gets the Benz & they repo'd the truck
And you can see ya kids like every other month

Check yaself before you wreck yaself
You know they say the market always corrects itself
So dont listen to the news or the scrolling on ya phone
Just hit StockX tryna keep up with the Jones'
Resell value...tripled in a moment
Nice pair of shoes got you drippin while you homeless
Hit her cash app & she sending you emojis
Sent the laughing one, you must be the oldest
Who would've known we'd turn beer to a barrier
Bringing classism to a lower class area
Some care too much, some just dont care enough
Watch the neighborhood turn black & they be scared af
So money can't buy happiness?
But I never seen her frown when she got 5 karats
And moved next door when she broke off the marriage
She got to keep the ring and our friend

Who's they you may ask?
You know who they is.
They're the neighbors with that new leased Genesis GV80.
They're the Gen Z person with the Yeezys you didn't know were out.
How is it they have all the things that you want?
Well I'll tell you.
They work for the Jones Corporation & you dont.
With a minimum of 15 hours worked daily, you can put your lifestyle first.
Worrying about bills, housing & food are a thing of the past.
The Jones Corporation, work/life balance done right.
