I wake up, chase the paper, that's my goal In the world of gold chains, man, I sold my soul
Every step I take, it's about the money, no control Running on this treadmill, got a heart full of holes
They say the game's rigged, but I play it every day Every move I make is for the cash, no delay
Chasing dreams in the hustle, trying to find my way But the more I get, the more I'm losing, I'll pay
I used to dream of love, now I just crave the fame Hoping all this wealth would take away the pain
But in the mirror, man, I see your face, so strange I'm a slave to money, it's all I've ever gained
I'm a slave to money, can't break free Chasing after something that's not meant for me
Got my heart in chains, my mind on the grind Money's got a hold, it's messing with my mind
I'm a slave to money, can't you see? Running in circles, but it's clear
Killing me, caught up in the system Chasing every dime, but I'm losing myself one penny at a time
Look at my bank, it's a mountain high But what's it worth when my soul's left to die?
Every deal I make, I'm selling pieces of pride Gotta feed the beast, gotta let my morals slide
They say money talks, but I don't hear a word It's all silent screams, man, haven't you heard?
I thought I'd find peace in a diamond-studded world But now I'm lost in the chaos, emotions swirl
I see the smiles, but they fake as hell No one's real, they just wanna sell
Got the richest blood, it's a hollow spell And in the end, man, who will I tell?
I'm a slave to money, can't break free Chasing after something that's not meant for me
Got my heart in chains, my mind on the grind Money's got a hold, it's messing with my mind
I'm a slave to money, can't you see? Running in circles, but it's killing me
Caught up in the system, chasing every dime But I'm losing myself one penny at a time
Money's a chain, yeah, but it feels like a crown They want me to wear it, but I'm drowning
down Is it worth it?
Chasing gold till I'm buried underground I'm lost in the game, where's the peace to be found?
Now I'm looking for an exit, but the door's locked tight Gotta fight the urge, gotta find the light
I was blind for years, now I'm starting to fight I'm not just a number, I won't pay the price
I want freedom, not fame or a loaded gun I want the truth, not lies that I've begun
Money ain't the answer, it's the root of the run It's time to break free, I'm done being ungrateful
I'm a slave to money, can't break free Chasing after something that's not meant for me
Got my heart in chains, my mind on the grind Money's got a hold, it's messing with my mind
I'm a slave to money, can't you see? Running in circles, but it's killing me
Caught up in the system, chasing every dime But I'm losing myself one penny at a time
But I'm losing myself one penny at a time
