[Verse 1]
I was chillin' on the couch
Scrollin' through the same old feed
Saw a chart climb slow, then it leaped up steep
Typed one ticker in, hit “buy”, felt heat
Lil' rush in my ribs
Like the floor jumped under my feet
Checked back once, up a couple
Checked back twice, now it doubled
Heart say “cash out”, pride say “nah”
Brain runnin' numbers like a late-night job
Every green little candle on the screen
Whispered “one more shot, you can stretch that dream”
[Chorus]
I got hooked on the highs of the market (yeah)
Every click, every tick, I’m a target
Mr. Money Bags
Chasin' charts like a habit I need
Say I’m only tryna build me a future
But it feel like I’m chasin' that teaser
Mr. Money Bags
Turned investment to a craving for green (for green, for green)
[Verse 2]
Used to stash in a jar
Just coins, broke kid kinda safe
Now I split stacks, bonds, funds, real estate
Learned lingo, late night videos play
“Diversify, wait, don’t panic, be brave”
But the phone glow bright when I lie in bed
Red days hurt, green days in my head
Refresh, refresh, palms start sweat
Tellin' friends it’s “long term”, but I’m glued to the steps
Mama said, “Boy, let your money breathe”
But I’m chart-watch walkin' like I’m lost in a dream
Every dip look cheap, every spike feel sweet
That slow, slow build turned to speed I need
[Chorus]
I got hooked on the highs of the market (uh)
Every click, every tick, I’m a target
Mr. Money Bags
Chasin' charts like a habit I need
Say I’m only tryna build me a future
But it feel like I’m chasin' that teaser
Mr. Money Bags
Turned investment to a craving for green (for green, for green)
[Bridge]
Is it growth, is it greed?
Is it planning, or just need?
Talk “patience” when I speak
But inside I’m tryna feed
That itch when the line break out the frame
That twitch when my name rise up in gain
I pray I’m buildin' more than a game
I pray I’m more than a slave to the change
[Chorus]
I got hooked on the highs of the market
Every click, every tick, I’m a target
Mr. Money Bags
Chasin' charts like a habit I need
If I lose, I’ma learn, get wiser
If I win, I’ma push it up higher
Mr. Money Bags
Turned investment to a craving for green (for green)
(yeah, I’m addicted to the green)
