Rehab - Gimmie My Money lyrics

Always schemin' to make real my dreamin'

Oh, since my conscience ???

Run and hide, live a lie

Never cry, I got devil eyes

All I despise, quick to criticize

I want it all and I want it now

Solitude and sin

Calm my nerves with gin

Sleep, wake up, and do it all again

And damn all else, for the wealth

I'll be detrimental to myself

Mental justification, I got no patience

I want to give, so I guess it's time for takin'

[1]

If we're livin' in the land of milk and honey

Then gimme, gimme, gimme my money, money, money

And don't blame me cuz ain't a damn thing funny

And gimme, gimme, gimme my money, money, money

[Repeat 1]

[Rapping:]

I caught greed, visions of diamonds in my sleep

Blue streak, everything else lookin' bleak

Slither, slidin', ridin', hidin' from correction

Got ya detection, get in it like direction

Snake persona

So much heat around me, feels like a sauna

I wanna have the kinda loot it takes to bone Madonna

I get the discount, five finger always

Eyes glazed, hide from the sun rays

Decept a con, you won't see me comin' like the Clinton scandal

Can't hold a candle to what I've handled

I live beneath the earth's crust, next to the mantle

Feed my addiction, from other people's property

I have no choice in this democracy

Thieve, deceive, violate, accumulate, put all in real estate

Spend the rest on dope and vegetate

Cuz I'm already fuckin' jive and the maid

I want the goddamn cake

[Repeat 1]

[Repeat 1]

[Singing:]

Thievery has never been a novelty

Nothin' glamorous about poverty

Skinny guy licks his lips at the bakery

Frivolous ways make the poor man angry

And life's a battle, and life's a bitch

And there ain't one honest man that's rich

He gotta catch, he gotta hitch

The pretty package, the big-top with a sales pitch

And I fall for it everytime

And still that mutha-fucka wants mine

This whole system was made so I can make it better

I want to give, so I guess it's time for takin'

[Repeat 1 to fade]
