Blink Blink Lyrics - Hip Hop And The World We Live In - Aceyalone

With a grin that matched his own she said, 

"You're not a thief, are you?" 

He shrugged. "Do I look like a thief?" 

"You look like the most attractive man here." 

She paused long enough to catch his eye 

Of course looks can be deceiving. 

She didn't say it, but she could picture him pocketing 

A necklace carelessly left in a jewelry box during a big party. 

Or a Seiko watch from under a poolside towel. 

She didn't imagine him planning a heist, 

But just taking what came his way. 

Returning her smile, he said 

'Bout that money, yeah, that's what I'm talkin' 'bout 

'Bout that money, gettin' that money 

[Chorus] 

Blink Blink, every time you open up your eyes 

Blink Blink, every time you open up your mind 

Blink Blink, yeah, yeah 

What the fuck are people talkin' 'bout? 

Blink, every time you open up your eyes 

Blink Blink, every time you open your mind 

Blink Blink, yeah, yeah 

What the fuck these people talkin' 'bout? 

I say it once, I'll say it again 

Cold cash money make the whole world spin 

You can laugh, and you can grin 

But you ain't sayin' shit if you ain't got ends 

So hold your breath, and wait for God 

And when you get here, tell him that you need a job 

Because shit is hard, in the battlefield 

And the next business deal can get you killed 

[Chorus] 

The phone's in my name and it can't be cut off 

The water and the power and it can't be shut off 

Food, shelter, cheese, I gotta break off, please 

I gotta shake off, that's why I gotta take off 

I'm young and full of vigor, West coast nigga 

Tryin' to make my pockets bigger from the shit that I deliver 

Stay afloat, sell your boat 

Sell what you wrote, fuck it, sell dope 

Yeah, yeah, what the fuck are people talkin' 'bout? 

Yeah, what the fuck do people think about? 

[Chorus: x3] 

You should put on a mask, and go in home savings 

Wit yo nuts and yo' heart and yo' forty-five waving 

Westsiders got West cravings 

God damn motherfuckin' money is amazing 

Yeah, you know money money in everything 

You know money make the world go round 

You know money runnin' everything 

You know money make the world go round 

You know money runnin' everything 

You know money make the world go, round
