Dleeted Ego - Burning Benjamins Lyrics

I been walking on this path I don't ever stray away
I've been dreaming about the stacks but will that really pave the way
Will that really make me happy constant checks and accolades
But constant debt it aggravates
Constant stress I have to pay
I been living in a fantasy
Money became enemy
Thought Benjamin was a friend to me
Now he's controlling everything
You need me to buy anything
You're happiness is up to me
Bow down now you look up to me
Bow down I am a deity
Now everybody pray to me
Everybody pray to me
Money rules the world and there's nothing you can say to me
Everything is make believe
Life is never what it seems
What you want is never free
So pay up I been faithfully by your side I'm in your pocket
Never left I'm in your wallet
Buy another phone cuz I know you hear the money calling
Pick up hear the money talking
Tell me what it says to you
Tell me that you love me I will always be a friend to you
Tell me that you want me promise everything I say is true
I will not abandon you
But if you don't believe in me then I will have to take your roof
I will have to take your food
I will have to take your shoes
I'm sorry you don't make the rules
I'm sorry you don't pick and choose
I'm sorry that these racks are not your passion so I'm after you
Better work a nine to five so you can live a better life
But at the same time waste your life
I guess you gotta pay the price for being broke its all a lie
I'm getting choked like all the time
I'm getting smoked like slaughtered swine
This ain't a joke it's really life
I'm asking how did living come to this
How did we succumb to this
Is money more important than your state of mind and happiness
Everyone's depressed but now your bank account is adequate
Nah f*ck that shit snap out of it
Put that paper down it's counterfeit
Waste your life just counting it
Don't let it take control of you might end up in some tragic shit
Might end up in a coffin quick
A lonely road it often is
I promise there's no end to this
There never was a finish line you're done before you're finished
You get the bag by any means
Your soul will start diminishing
You start to think you're happy but the money's only mimicking
A feeling that was always there
Start feeling what you felt before you started you were unprepared
I'd like to see your face when you find out that there is nothing there
