Cash for the day
Just head to the store
Should I blow it all now
And just let it all go
Should I cash it all out
Let it drop to the floor
Like the bass of the beat
As the hourglass pours
Should I save it for later
Invest all my paper
Endeavours, new wagers
Just to spend it all later
And not need a waver
Or work for nobody
Do no more favours
Won't cater to haters
Don't tell me how to spend my money
Twenty forty fifties and the hundreds
Cashing out the chips then i'm running
You won't ever know the fine line
Between how hard i work to get by
Buy time just to cut all loose ties
Time don't fly by when its hard times
So inclined on my dime
What a crime to waste a lifetime
These thoughts play inside my mind
Won't spend mine out on the side-lines
If time is money
Then i want what I'm owed
Time to cash in my chips
And invest in my own
Said i don't need no lip
And i don't need no load
Did it all with my kin
Did it all for my folk
If time is money
Then i want what I'm owed
Time to cash in my chips
And invest in my own
Said i don't need no lip
And i don't need no load
Did it all with my kin
Did it all for my folk
I am the top gun
I'm Tom Cruise
And I don't ever need a take two
Nobody could ever fit in my boots
Imma let 'em see what it takes
To make a move
You don't even know
What it takes to make it
I had to work my way up
From the basement
I had to push through the bullshit
And brace all the bullets
When you couldn't man up and face it
You don't know a thing about me
I came from defeat
I overcame problems
And worked my way up from the bottom
But you find that part hard to believe
You don't know a thing about me
I aim it and squeeze
I tuck it way under my hoodie
And if you wanna push me
That Tech N9ne come out in KC
Everything I made I earned it
Been working for the pay
And I paid to work it
The money and the fame ain't worth it
Everybody want a raise
But can't break the surface
Couldn't put away the urges
Burnin' like a flame it's hurtin'
Turned you to a snake, a serpent
Seeking fangs to purchase
Anything for trade
And the name is worthless
I must've been out of my mind
To think you could handle the shine
I'm so far above it
A hundred
You're lucky I trumped it
And frankly I don't have the time
The summit was so hard to climb
But Rome wasn't built in a night
If you don't wanna budge
Then I'm buckin'I don't work for nothin'
You ain't gonna get a fuckin' free ride
If time is money
Then i want what I'm owed
Time to cash in my chips
And invest in my own
Said i don't need no lip
And i don't need no load
Did it all with my kin
Did it all for my folk
If time is money
Then i want what I'm owed
Time to cash in my chips
And invest in my own
Said i don't need no lip
And i don't need no load
Did it all with my kin
Did it all for my folk
Mutha Fucka'
