Money

MONEY

By RAi Soulmusic

[Intro] Yeah... Who printed the paper? Who decided its worth? Funny... We spend our whole lives... Chasing a number.

[Verse 1] Back in the day we traded grain, Fish for fire, no profit game. Then came coins with a ruler's face, Power found another place.

Gold became the fucking king, Everything had strings attached. Now your value's measured daily... By the numbers that you catch.

You work all week, Just to stay alive. Pay your bills... Then fucking survive.

[Pre-Chorus] Money's just a tool... Until it owns your soul. The chains aren't made of steel... They're printed, bought and sold.

[Chorus] Money! Everybody fucking kneels. Money! Tell me what's even real.

Born in debt... Die in debt... Running circles... Full of sweat.

Money! It can build... It can destroy. Made us adults... Who forgot the joy.

[Verse 2] Wars get funded, Truth gets sold. Young hearts traded... For fucking gold.

Politicians shake their hands, Bankers smile behind the glass. The poor keep running faster... Never meant to fucking pass.

You buy a house... The house buys you. You own a car... Until payments do.

[Bridge] I'm not against the money... I'm against the greed. Enough for every human... If we killed the endless need.

Money's not the devil... Neither is the flame. It's the hand that holds the matches... That should carry all the blame.

[Final Chorus] Money! Can't buy one more breath. Money! Can't negotiate with death.

When the lights go out... Who's your friend? The numbers disappear... In the end.

Money! We made the game... Then lost control. Now we're selling... Pieces of our soul.

[Outro] One day... Someone will ask... "How much was your life worth?"

Don't answer... With a fucking number.
