Money, money, money (inte bara skryt, Knickle)
Money - Melancholic feat. Silence
Intro:
Money… Just take a look around you, man… Money rules the world…
Money is probably one of the smartest, but also, one of the most lethal inventions ever... But... It´s not money in itself that´s evil... No...
It´s the greed whom mislead people that´s evil...
Money is just a symbol of something much bigger.....
1st Verse
Let´s take a walk in the society divided by classes/
Just take a look at how the rich controls the masses/
Propaganda is their weapon, most of us gets defeated/
Our class is considerable in the way we get treated/
They´re depending on that no one question the conditions/
They won´t willingly give up their privilege and positions/
Without the subliminal acceptance, it wouldn´t remain/
And if so, the people in charge couldn´t detain/
the proletarians from claiming what´s rightfully theirs/
after all these years of blood, sweat, and tears/
But obstacles prevents us from using this wisdom/
Our social inheritance got us trapped in the system/
The ethic reflects the values of the ruling class/
How we look upon each other is mainly based on cash/
The size of your wallet is the only thing that´s really matter/
If we ever gonna reach equality, we have to steal the ladder/
Hook x2
Money, money, money on everybody´s minds
Some live in luxury, others stay on the grind
People can´t see the greedy evil that´s behind
´Cause the daily paper chase is making ´em blind
2nd Verse
The gap between the rich and the poor keeps getting bigger/
Poverty has transformed into a simple figure/
Eventually, the oppressed can´t hold back their desperation/
Politicians got their arms twisted by big corporations/
You can bet that those bastards got skeletons in the closet/
Ready to do anything just to make a profit/
No remores, no matter what their actions might bring/
Shameless like a peacock that spreads it´s wings/
There you have it, capitalism at it´s pride/
This economy would collapse if we was satisfied/
with what we have, who we are, and how we look/
But I can read your marketing schemes like an open book/
Your commercials can´t convince me even if you slap me/
We don´t need all these material things to be happy/
If a salesman tells you different, he´s a lying rat/
So tell him; ”-There´s no way in hell that I´m buying that!”/
Hook x2
3rd Verse
Tell me, what are you prepared to do if the price is right?/
Murder someone for their chain if the ice is bright/
Steal from your friends or rob your neighbours/
Let children work in your factory as cheap labour/
Deal drugs to people that just wanna escape the reality/
Control the mass media to shape the mentality/
Let people live in misery just to increase your wealth/
Sell products that will damage other people´s health/
Exploit women through pornography and prostitution/
Make Mother Earth sick by letting out pollutions/
Lose your humanity by turning people into slaves/
Look for secret treasures by digging up graves/
Manufacture weapons that will cause so much pain/
Make money of a war that you started in God´s name/
Turn a culture into a product and call it ”hip hop”/
As long as money is involved, it can´t be stopped/
Hook x2
Outro: Now, look... I don´t say that it´s wrong to make money, it´s
the way you make it... I love to have money in my pocket too, just
as long as there´s no blood on ´em... Aight? Don´t let greed mislead you.....
You don't think rational when you're lovesick
The heart convince the brain that the glove fit
