Root of all evil; powerful enough to change a person
And if it don't, then I'll be damned
That's a strange occurence
People get to actin' crazy
When they feel a sense of urgency to get some currency
This shit make the world spin
I've seen the root and what grows from it
Shit is crazy, you would never think a tree could grow money
Who would've thought a piece of paper with a print can run the government?
They use it to divide the population livin' under it
I be really wonderin'
If and when the lightning strikes
And thunder gets to rumblin'
When the dam crumbles, and the water gets to floodin' in
Who gone stay true?
Who gone bring them true colors in?
Wonder who I'm trustin' in
Yeah
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder
I wonder if they love me for being me
Sometimes I wonder if it's the green
Sometimes I wonder
I wonder if you see me for who I am?
Or what I have to offer?
Am I a rapper or an author?
Sometimes I wonder
Ooh
I know you hear me, but do you know how I feel?
Is there anyone who's got my back for real?
Am I a rapper or an author?
Are you here for the stories, or what I have to offer?
Tell me you'll never change on me for them dollars
Tryna chase a bag for my future sons and daughters
Tell me your true interest
Tell me if I blow up you ain't gone look at me different
I know I ain't innocent
Know I did some things in my life that wasn't considerate
But I can never fake love, and that's the biggest difference
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder
I wonder if you see me for who I am?
Or what I have to offer?
Am I a rapper or an author?
Sometimes I wonder
Ooh
I know you hear me, but do you know how I feel?
Is there anyone who's got my back for real?
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder
