lyrics

Ain’t a damn thing funny
All they care about is the money
Nah, it’s just the money make em louder
All they really care about is the power
Ain’t a damn thing funny
All they care about is the money
Nah, it’s just the money make em louder
All they really care about is the power

Life’s a gamble people out here let it ride
Some get lucky others stuck up in the genocide
Either way it’s funky and the house will always get the prize
Win or lose it’s just the blues a color blind enterprise
Fucked around and found out they running the asylum
And I don’t know who they is but I know that they wildin
Whether you a city kid or out there on the island
It’s all fun and games until you see the bodies piling
And once you finally see it gotta make a big decision
Believe your own eyes or believe the television
Cause they could have you thinking the oppressors are the victims
And rooting for the deaths of people caught up in the system
You got your little flag in your profile picture
Showing your support for the force behind scripture
Might as well be rooting for the allies in iraq
A million kids lives that you can’t buy back

Ain’t a damn thing funny
All they care about is the money
Nah, it’s just the money make em louder
All they really care about is the power
Ain’t a damn thing funny
All they care about is the money
Nah, it’s just the money make em louder
All they really care about is the power

One man’s livelihood’s another man’s taxes
And one’s revolution is another’s evil axis
Meanwhile the fabric of integrity collapses
And wolves are making clothes out of sheep from the pastures
This is not rapture this is human design
See Tavis got stock in the movement of minds
And they steering left to right got you choosing a side
And admitting you were wrong would be like losing your pride
Man there’s nuance to this shit it ain’t so black or white
But blindly believing the news is like you pack a pipe
Do you teach your children well or just react and fight
Or do you show em right from wrong and have compassion in life
And I know it’s not so simple but aint gotta be so willing
We gave a peace prize to somebody bombing children
And y’all cheering for it might as well condone the killing
Thats a heal to the face playing heroes verse the villains

Ain’t a damn thing funny
All they care about is the money
Nah, it’s just the money make em louder
All they really care about is the power
Ain’t a damn thing funny
All they care about is the money
Nah, it’s just the money make em louder
All they really care about is the power
