Lyrics
It's the dollar bill, verse the Dalai Lama
Yeah me know how ya feel, when you ain't got a lot yeah
Well alright... well alright
Either you live fast, or you drive slow
When tryna get cash, look out for five-0
Well alright, well alright, well alright, well alright
Okay I used to work at Finish Line
Stocking boxes and ramen boxes at dinner time
Back in college I got on my independent grind
Had some partners that opted for those of different kinds
Rather see 3 to 9 than be seen in assembly line
Working that belt on some Pootie Tang yeah that tippy tie yippie kye yay shit
Get crucial conflict at your gig cause you smoking on hay shit
Like everyday shiiiit, they say don't e'en bother coming today
We can smell you a mile away feel like Hell is a mile away
Feel like Harvard Yale and Cornell bout a whole other galaxy
Can hardly support yourself with support for your child to pay
Can't make bail the bailiff himself bout to have you on lock and key
Ain't hard to say when it's not you
Therefore you thought my lil grain of salt ain't no gospel
Never sought to make no Apostle, only me tryna stop you
Hard to sit back and watch you I hate to see what that got you
I saw you weigh the dollar bill
It's the dollar bill, verse the Dalai Lama
Yeah me know how ya feel, when you ain't got a lot yeah
Well alright... well alright
Either you live fast, or you drive slow
When tryna get cash, look out for five-0
Well alright, well alright, well alright, well alright
Alright it's damned if do or damned if I don't huh?
So I be damned if I DO not get what I want yup
Beware them dudes in that crew yeah like to jump
Any dude who the likes of you yeah you food if you like to stunt
Better run like you Cappadonna or run to pack pack you a llama
Or run the jewels ain't no running to momma nor to your honor
Not a jury can rule over dude when he after commas
No karma or golden rule helping you when you flashing dollars
Look, I Run the Jewels like Killer Mike and El-P
Cuz I kill the mic and LP and ain't shit that you telling me
Don't tell me your tele tellin the truth that could set you free
Let them tell it their truth is you hate the troops if you take a knee
Basic training they aim is to bulletproof the police
But no justice for you or me look at what they do to Kalief
They favorite saying is if you hate it then leave
The more you say just the more they're making us see it's the dollar bill
