Plight, See me I need more dimes, So I can flip this grind, cnd I can take these flights, Sign my name on white, Just to keep on the lights, Four years of my life but I'm not convinced this life, That's life, Wow you want all my time, I lost everything shelter, p**sy, and friends of mind, See it all came back around but I can't never hit rewind, I caught you scumbags trying to rob a n**ga blind, Look like everybody got the same problem as mine, Even Uncle Sam trying to get a dollar on the side, Show girls trying to catch a dollar out the sky, Same dollar that dope boys trying to squeeze out the pot, Same dollar that the politician squeeze out a lie, Same dollar that the preacher steady keeping for the car, To impress a girl who went and spent it on some booty pop, Say it ain't about the money, You's a mother f**king lie, I can see the correlation for the money and the time, You take all of mine and I still ain't got a dime, Back to the grind, I'd rather the peace of mind, Whats the point of working for it if it ain't even mine,

Trading minutes for the money I ain't got the time, I got to get mines and how you get yours is for you to decide, You got live before you die, Money versus time, You want all of mine, Well I need all of mine, Money versus time, You want all of mine, Well I need all of mine, I'm gone need that,

Now dollar won't set me free, But dollar will make me fly, Yeah dollar gone get me b**ches, Yeah dollar gone get me power, Dollar make me feel good, Yeah dollar make me feel pride, But then it all seems worthless when I see our mothers cry, When I see black bodies die, Everyday new homicide,Give the killer vacation time, It'll all go away in time, Now I see I can't play with time, Cause nobody knows the day or time and I can't take a single dime, Everybody trying to take a piece of mine, But I won't let these mother f**kers take my piece of mind, Tell me whats the point of living until you die, If you got to live with bitterness inside, If you got to live with emptiness inside, If you got to live with envious inside, I been working praying that the stars aline, Cause I'd rather make art with the time, Yeah I got to free my heart and my mind, Yeah you know it get rough on this side, I'ma do what I love til I die, See I Know money can't buy time,

Trading minutes for the money I ain't got the time, I got to get mines and how you get yours is for you to decide, You got live before you die, Money versus time..
