Make The Money - Macklemore
[00:21.40] Now, this is my job, I will not quit it
[00:23.90] Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished
[00:26.41] Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance
[00:29.18] That's just the work, regardless of who's listening, listening
[00:32.83] Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior
[00:35.09] Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious
[00:37.85] Classroom of kids, or a venue performing
[00:40.36] If I'd done it for the money I'd have been a fucking lawyer
[00:43.12] Concrete, vagabond, van telling stories
[00:45.87] Humbled by the road, I'm realizing I'm not important
[00:48.89] See life's a beautiful struggle, I record it
[00:51.15] Hope it helps you maneuvering through yours and
[00:54.16] That's why we stay in the lab at night
[00:56.42] I've been staring into this pad for over half my life
[00:59.42] A true artist won't be satisfied
[01:01.94] So I guess that's the sacrifice
[01:03.95] And I say
[01:05.20] Make the money, don't let the money make you
[01:07.71] Change the game, don't let the game change you
[01:11.12] I'll forever remain faithful
[01:13.12] All my people stay true, I say
[01:15.88] Make the money, don't let the money make you
[01:18.64] Change the game, don't let the game change you
[01:22.04] I'll forever remain faithful
[01:24.05] All my people stay true
[01:25.95] Forget about the fame, fortune and the mansion
[01:28.47] Sitting and tripping watching myself on a plasma
[01:30.97] Yeah, I start slipping when I'm thinking about that stuff
[01:33.98] Ego won't swole until karma catches that up, that up
[01:37.65] I'm my grandma's number one grandson
[01:40.16] I lost myself to remember who that was
[01:42.92] We start thinking about some kicks, a necklace
[01:45.43] What I really need is a job off CraigsList
[01:48.19] Take away the dot com, name, love
[01:50.70] Fans, Twitter followers, and the buzz
[01:53.47] See, you keep the issues but you take away the drugs
[01:55.72] And I had to find out who I really was
[02:00.24] Who I really wasn't
[02:01.99] So sick of who I was becoming
[02:04.51] Yeah, tired of running
[02:06.01] Time to look at the man in the mirror until I can learn to love him
[02:10.02] Make the money, don't let the money make you
[02:12.53] Change the game, don't let the game change you
[02:15.69] I'll forever remain faithful
[02:17.95] All my people stay true, I say
[02:20.70] Make the money, don't let the money make you
[02:23.21] Change the game, don't let the game change you
[02:26.63] I'll forever remain faithful
[02:28.87] All my people stay true
[02:42.18] Of course I want dubs and a candy painted 'lac
[02:44.44] Watch the videos and get the girls in the back
[02:47.19] But if that's what I believe in, and the reason that I rap
[02:49.71] Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track
[02:52.72] Of course I want dubs and a candy painted 'lac
[02:55.23] Watch the videos and get the girls in the back
[02:57.74] But if that's what I believe in, and the reason that I rap
[03:00.50] Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track
[03:03.51] Make the money, don't let the money make you
[03:06.28] Change the game, don't let the game change you
[03:09.53] I'll forever remain faithful
[03:11.54] Stay true, stay true, and I said
[03:14.30] Make the money, don't let the money make you
[03:17.06] Change the game, don't let the game change you
[03:20.57] I'll forever remain faithful
[03:23.34] Stay true, stay true, stay true
[03:26.35] Forget about the fame
[03:28.61] I said forget about the fame
[03:31.38] I'll forever remain faithful
[03:33.88] Stay true, stay true, stay true
