The $ Lyrics & Video

I'm thinkin of a master plan
I'm blingin with the cash in hand
I got a mu'fuckin right to shine
I paid my dues
I earned this cake I abuse
I burn this paper the way I choose
I gotta,
handle my B-I, and I do
And hold the D-I, NY too
when I'm out of the zone , no tellin what it might do
Mess with my loot and it might pop
It might lock, it might not, it might shoot!
And its not the chance to take
Just like it's not the answer
Who's out for the paper?
Hands up!
Blaze that there, pay that dancer
holla if you ever been placed in handcuffs
Survival: the name of the game
You wanna play?
You wanna race, dont wait for the bang

Gotta go and get the money
-worldwide!let's get it!
gotta go and get the money
-can't stop hustlin baby!
gotta go and get the money
-this is for you!!!
Gotta go and get the dough
-okay!

Gotta go and
get these nutts
Just hit, breeze, cheese or bust
Dilla with the gangsta shit
Now lemme say it again and say it with feelin
DILLA WITH THE GANGSTA SHIT!
here to spit the flame
here to get the bank and split it
here to twist the dank and hit it
here to switch the game
here to flip this change and spend it
down here in the valley of death we walk that
you talk crap and wind up dead in the alley
survival: the name of the game
and everywhere I go they play it the same
so stay mindin your own and grindin, roll!
keep shinin
keep headlinin shows
and get dat dough, let's eat my niggas
let's not be broke next week my niggas!
Cuz you know how we do when we get the monnnney!

-so keep stackin ya chips
Gotta go and get the money
-and keep mackin ya bitch
Gotta go and get the money
Gotta go and get the dough!
