[Verse 1]

Now, this is my job, I will not quit it
Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished
Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance
That's just the work, regardless of who's listening, listening
Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior
 Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious
Classroom of kids, or a venue performing
If I'd had done for the money I'd have been a [bad word] lawyer
 Concrete, vagabond, van telling stories
Humbled by the road, I'm realizing I'm not important
 See life's a beautiful [bad word]  I record it
Hope it helps you maneuvering through yours and
That's why we stay in the lab at night
I've been staring into this pad for over half my life
[bad word] artist won't be satisfied
 So I guess that's the sacrifice
And I say...

 [Hook]
Make the money, don't let the money make you
Change the game, don't let the game change you
I'll forever remain faithful
 All my people stay [bad word] 
 I say...
 Make the money, don't let the money make you
 Change the game, don't let the game change you
 I'll forever remain faithful
 All my people stay [bad word] 

 [Verse 2]

Forget about the fame, fortune and the mansion
Sitting and tripping watching myself on a plasma
Yeah, I start slipping when I'm thinking about that stuff
Ego won't swole until the karma catches that up, that up
I'm my grandma's number one grandson
 I lost myself to remember who that was
We start thinking about some kicks, a necklace
What I really need is a job off craig's list
 Take away the [bad word]  name, love
 Fans, twitter followers, and the buzz
 See, you keep the issues but you take away the [bad word] 
 And I had to find out who I really was
Who I really wasn't
 So sick of who I was [bad word] 
 Yeah, tired [bad word] 
 Time to look at the man in the mirror until I can learn to love him

 [Hook]
Make the money, don't let the money make you
 Change the game, don't let the game change you
 I'll forever remain faithful
 All my people stay [bad word] 
 I said...
 Make the money, don't let the money make you
 Change the game, don't let the game change you
 I'll forever remain faithful
 All my people stay [bad word] 

 [Bridge](x2)
Of course I want dubs and a candy painted 'lac
 Watch the videos and get the girls in the back
 But if that's what I believe in, and the reason that I rap
 Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track

 [Hook]
Make the money, don't let the money make you
 Change the game, don't let the game change you
 I'll forever remain faithful
 Stay [bad word]  stay [bad word] 
 And I said...
 Make the money, don't let the money make you
 Change the game, don't let the game change you
 I'll forever remain faithful
 Stay [bad word]  stay [bad word]  stay [bad word] 

 [Outro]
Forget about the fame
 I said forget about the fame
 I'll forever remain faithful
 Stay [bad word]  stay [bad word]  stay [bad word]
