That cash rules everything around me
Cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
Cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
Keep my head above water, I won't let it drown me
All I hear is
Cash cash cash cash cash cash
And bands bands bands bands bands bands
All these racks racks racks racks racks racks
I gotta make 'em stack stack stack stack stack
What would you do for a dolla
Would you trade on yo patna
To pull up in a phantom
You ain't feedin' no potluck
You sell yo soul for a pension
And an honorable mention
You need that fame like now
But you can't live with the method
What you gone do with them riches
Can't buy your stairway to heaven
Think that money gone save you
It ain't no cure for depression
When it all comes down
And that bread get sour
You pushed yo bloodline aside
To get that money and power
To be amongst the affluent
All so money influenced
To be the cream of the crop
But the money's all that you got
And you so openly flaunt it
You ain't human, you flawless
You think you chasin' yo dreams
But you just chasin' them dollas
That cash rules everything around me
Cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
Cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
Keep my head above water, I won't let it drown me
I'm workin' graveyard shifts it ain't enough for the rent
Momma called me she need help and I got nothin' to give
Bill collectors want it now but I'm so low on these funds
I went in debt to get out, now more bill collectors coming
What's this world that we live in
All these crook politicians
Dear Lord, please forgive 'em
They just lost and misguided
But my fortress is solid
I been spreading my wings
I broke down to evolve to the mind-state of a king
That cash rules everything around me
Cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
Cash rules everything around me
That cash rules everything around me
Keep my head above water, I won't let it drown me
