歌詞
[Verse 1]
I did it all for the money, Lord
It's what it seems
Well, in the world of night terrors
It's hard to dream
They hollering cash rules everything
Just call it C.R.E.A.M. 'cause when it rises to the top
You get the finer things
[Verse 2]
Oceanfronts, rollin' blunts with model chicks
And sayin' grace over lobster and steak
Like please forgive us for ridin' Benzes with camera plates
Too busy lookin' backwards for jackers to pump my brakes
For help signs to symbolize the lives that hunger takes
[Verse 3]
Addicted to the green, if I don't ball I'll get the shakes
I'd give it all for a peace of mind for Heaven's sakes
My heart's so heavy that the ropes that hold my casket breaks
'Cause everything in it wasn't for me
I had to chase, I had to take, I had to take
[Verse 4]
They told me that the ends
Won't justify the means
And you told me at the end
It won't justify the dreams
That I've had since a child
Maybe I'll throw in the towel
Make my, make my
Make my, make my
Departure from the world
[Verse 5]
Tryna control the fits of panic
Unwritten and unraveled, it's the dead man's pedantic
Whatever, see, it's really just a matter of semantics
When everybody's fresh outta collateral to damage
[Verse 6]
And my splayin' got me prayin' like a mantis
I begin to vanish, feel the pull of the blank canvas
I'm contemplatin' that special dedication
To whoever it concern, my letter of resignation
[Verse 7]
Fadin' back to black, my dark coronation
The heat of the day, the long robe of muerte
That soul is in the atmosphere like AirPlay
If there's a Heaven I can't find a stairway
[Verse 8]
They told me that the ends
Won't justify the means
And you told me at the end
It won't justify the dreams
That I've had since a child
Maybe I'll throw in the towel
Make my, make my
Make my, make my
Departure from the world
