Money Ish (Rip Pimp C) - Stalley

A lot of tap dancing going on, industry buffoons

They told me not to bring out the skeletons in these rooms

But these children are doomed with these fake ass rappers lying about what they

do

And these record execs overlook the rhyme, to put you in chains and give you a

little shine, lock up your mind

Slave master mentality, on every nigga that’s signed, so I decline with a

freedom mind

Whipping' my balls at your racist comments

Right fist up all honest and I’mma do it like I promised with my soul polished

not a flaw scratch on me

Liberated so I pass money

And all that monkey ish keep from round me

This is war, y’all looking like Robert Downey embarrassing a culture and I’m

feeling like a revolutionary poster hanging over Capital Hill with two pistols

in a holster

Power

One stone after another until I bring down the devils house

Screaming outside the prison house until I free every rebel out

This the voice that won’t settle down, never forget about and every black

leader that ever follow what they believe in

And in my dreams I be seeing their visions so clear so when my lyrics hit the

air

I just hope the world hears how these fake niggas get scared to speak up

I’m pulling all mask off unveiling under the surface and those with voices are

worthless

Rapping about clown ish and I’mma be the one to lift the ground up so you

really see what’s going on around us

There’s no leaders in the game, just a bunch of monkey’s tryna hang in packs

and do the same thing

But your followers lost in clouds of smoke, and you wonder why the white folks

call us joke and never take us serious

You know, and I just wanted to give people that

I wanted people to know that I’m like a everyday dude just like you are,

you know

And I’ve went through the ups and downs same as you

Like, um you know my friend he always picks at me and he calls me like the

Bruce Springsteen of Hip-Hop

You know what I’m saying cos he say I write for the blue collar workers and

like, you know like the everyday working class man

But that’s what it is, that’s where I come from

You know what I mean

I come from a blue collar city

Everyday working class people working steeling factories and steel mills and

the railroads and you know so, that’s life for me
