Ren - Money Game Part 2 (Official Lyric Video)(MP3_128K)_1
[00:11.16] Strange times we're living in, panic and hysteria
[00:13.91] Poor man learn the rich man don't care for ya
[00:16.16] Narcissist mindsets spread like malaria
[00:18.66] Sit back and watch the show, America!
[00:21.16] Britain split through fickle shit
[00:23.16] A government of hypocrites
[00:25.66] These counterfeit politicians sit
[00:28.16] In parliament, not adequate
[00:30.91] Needlessly bleeding resources all dry
[00:33.16] Turn a blind eye if it means a pay rise
[00:35.66] "Oh what a shame it would be I would die"
[00:38.16] If Number 10 Downing Street burned in a fire
[00:40.91] Only joking, only messing, don't be stressing
[00:42.91] I'm a peaceful adolescent, there's no need to be unpleasant Write my thesis in a rhyme scheme
[00:46.66] To analyze the brain
[00:47.91] While my fingers on the trigger of a money game
[00:50.41] Oh rain, rain, rain, rain
[00:52.66] A storm, it comes our way
[00:55.16] And those who rise through distorted lies
[00:57.66] Poisoning the veins
[00:59.41] But we like to point the blame, blame, blame, blame
[01:02.66] It's easier to blame
[01:04.91] But point the mirror at ourselves
[01:07.41] We're all part of this old money game
[01:18.16] (This old money game)
[01:28.41] (This old)
[01:29.66] Money is a game and the ladder we climb
[01:31.91] Turns a saint into a sinner with his finger in crime
[01:34.16] I'll break it down for you motherfuckers line by line
[01:36.66] This is business economics in a nursery rhyme
[01:39.41] She sells seashells on a seashore
[01:41.66] But the value of these shells will fall
[01:44.41] Due to the laws of supply and demand
[01:46.41] No one wants to buy shells 'cause there's loads on the sand
[01:48.91] Step 1: you must create a sense of scarcity
[01:51.05] Shells will sell much better if the people think they're rare, you see
[01:53.55] Bare with me, take as many shells as you can find and hide 'em on an island
[01:56.55] Stockpile 'em high until they're rarer than a diamond
[01:58.80] Step 2: you gotta make the people think that they want 'em
[02:01.06] Really want 'em, really fuckin want 'em
[02:02.80] Hit 'em like Bronson
[02:03.56] Influencers, product placement, featured prime time entertainment
[02:06.18] If you haven't got a shell then you're just a fucking waste man
[02:08.93] Three: it's monopoly, invest inside some property
[02:11.32] Start a corporation, make a logo, do it properly
[02:13.81] "Shells must sell", that will be your new philosophy
[02:16.31] Swallow all your morals they're a poor man's quality
[02:18.56] Four: expand, expand, expand
[02:20.94] Clear forest, make land, fresh blood on hand
[02:23.19] Five: why just shells? Why limit your self?
[02:25.58] She sells seashells, sell oil as well!
[02:27.94] Six: guns, sell stocks, sell diamonds, sell rocks
[02:30.58] Sell water to a fish, sell the time to a clock
[02:33.07] Seven: press on the gas, take your foot off the brakes
[02:35.58] Then run to be the president of the United States
[02:37.94] Eight: big smile mate, big wave that's great
[02:40.33] Now the truth is overrated, tell lies out the gate
[02:42.94] Nine: Polarize the people, controversy is the game
[02:45.19] It don't matter if they hate you if they all say your name
[02:47.94] Ten: the world is yours, step out on a stage to a round of applause
[02:52.84] You're a liar, a cheat, a devil, a whore
[02:55.19] And you sell seashells on the seashore
[02:57.94] Rain, rain, rain, rain
[03:00.19] A storm, it comes our way
[03:02.44] And those who rise through distorted lies
[03:04.94] Poisoning the veins
[03:06.69] But we like to point the blame, blame, blame, blame
[03:09.82] It's easier to blame
[03:12.19] But point the mirror at ourselves
[03:14.69] We're all part of this old money game
[03:25.69] (This old money game)
