Funny Money

Yeah

Ladies, make it hot, girls, make it hot

Mr. International, passport pimpin

City street dweller every asphault different

Hittin with Jean and The Roots, my man Black Thought rippin

Now a glass goes whistlin, my rap flow's switchin up

Wait~! The promoter bitchin, is this asshole trippin?

Why my cash flow missin?

Don't fuck around this is how I make a livin

Stop, listen, get the guap'

My kids can't eat my love for hip-hop

This ain't the circus, I don't see no big top

So - who ya tryin to clown your money like Chris Rock

Don't make me laugh with'cha funny money

Yeah, uhh, yeah, hehehehehe, ehyeah, yo

These promoters shady and they good for broken promises

Some of them scared of the hood so they only promote the colleges

I'm havin problems with excuses

Especially when it comes to my money and the contract is exclusive

They sell the tickets with'cha name up in lights an' shit

But when it's time to pay they came up with all type of shit

Or tried to pay me in marijuana

The crowd was so thin he blamed Osama and the Twin Tower bombers

In my pocket like a thief and there ain't no honor

Livin all reckless like there ain't no karma

You ain't on punishment, I ain't your momma

I just had to expose the truth like Leonardo DaVinci when he paint Madonna

Hey, hey heyyyy, c'mon, uhh, whoa

Illegal business control America

Illegal immigration, gun control hysteria

The war on terror, war on drug, now everybody have vices

So we still gettin higher than gas prices

Yeah we have righteous MC's, ready to infilitrate

The system like a disease and bring it right to it's knees

Who ain't fuckin with the pay for play, that shit is gay

Get down with Blacksmith or get the fuck out the way

E'rything's straight! Just get out from under the table

I'm not a pimp runnin a stable

I'm a kid with a vision runnin a label

With the freshest MC's with somethin to say too

We cuttin the umbilical cord from the navel

Willin and able to change the game for the better

A lot of crews claim they together

Then they fall apart and blame it on cheddar

Please~! I stay professional in all my endeavors

So we about to blow like Parliament in "V for Vendetta"

They try to get you with the funny money
