As poor as you may be, 
The only one you're hurting is your family. 
Robbing yourself, it makes no sense 
You steal a million but then end up with cents. 
Cause the devil dances in empty pockets 
And you're never gonna win by firing rockets 
Hear me when I say! 
Oh, oh, oh 

So much chaos in these streets, you see that 
From the heat there's no retreat, you know that 
To the less you only beat, you hear that? 
You can't handle no defeat! 
But the devil dances in empty pockets 
And you're never gonna win by firing rockets 
Hear me when I say! 
Oh, we don't need that to know 
Oh, we don't need that! 

Because you're playing with the devil 
Causes the lightning and thunder. 
Because you're playing with the devil 
Causes the lightning and thunder. 

Oh, here's what we gotta do is move this forward, 
Tell him that [bad word] through. 
Oh, here's what we gotta do is move this forward, 
Tell him that [bad word] through. 
Oh, here's what we gotta do is move this forward, 
Tell him that [bad word] through. 

I smell that plastic burning 
Silver from burning plastic. 
I smell that plastic burning 
Silver from burning plastic. 

Because playing with the devil 
Causes the lightning and thunder 
Because playing with the devil 
Causes the lightning and thunder 

Oh, here's what we gotta do 
Let's move this forward, tell him that [bad word] through! 
Oh, here's what we gotta do 
Let's move this forward, tell him that [bad word] through! 
Oh, here's what we gotta do 
Let's move this forward, tell him that [bad word] through! 
Oh, here's what we gotta do 
Let's move this forward, raise on and take over!
