Ain't About The Money

(专辑： Empire: Original Soundtrack Season 2 Volume 1 - 2015)

If you know like I know say
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (if you know like I know say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power

Think about it, think about it
Ain't no need to think about it
Get that money, keep that power
No they not the same thing
Money can be anybody,
This somebody, that nobody
When it comes to power
Circle, super small to maintain

Money make em' do it 'cause of what you give to it
Power make em' do it 'cause you told 'em to do it
Money make you fly, power never die, don't know why
Money can be lost, power never need an alibi
Blood thicker than the champagne
Power in my pride, power in my last name

Said if I don't know nothing, I know this paper
Bigger than the world stepping over skyscrapers
If I don't know nothing, one thing I know
Power over money, man that's just how it go

If you know like I know say
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (if you know like I know say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power

When I'm in your presence you can feel the power
Even if the company was built from powder
Girls, kissing on the couch, women in the shower
Surround, myself with kings, you can keep the cowards
Every time I reminisce, I'm repping different bitches
Blood is thicker than water but BS is the thickest
Let the chain 'round my neck tell my life story
Born into the money but we'll die for glory

Get ready for the take over, that face, lift and make over,
That case, that I break open, that great fifth like Beethoven
If you, wanna get it, popping, I can be in the team,
Thirty-four, in a, rocket cause Hakeem's the dream
Get it, they don't get it

Oh, we're making moves, you wanna doing
What my power let you do
You see that money isn't everybody's thing,
When it comes to power, can only be one king

Said if I don't know nothing, I know this paper
Bigger than the world stepping over skyscrapers
If I don't know nothing, one thing I know
Power over money, man that's just how it go

If you know like I know say
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (if you know like I know say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power
