Trade Money Lyrics - Dilated Peoples

(Jamaican man talking & Babu mixing) 

"Everybody got dreams of makin cash money" 

(Chorus-Iriscience) 

Trade money 

Different color and shape money (money) 

Money that looks funny but never no fake money 

Make money, money, but please don't waste money 

We don't love money but we don't hate money 

(Evidence) 

Yo, if you live day to day then you proabably live life 

More than a cat who got a Benz, bank roll and a wife 

'Cause yo, I seen a lot of folks whose so-called success equals depress 

And look up to broke peeps who hold mics now 

Play the role, reverse and understand 

Your friend with no dough might be closer to earth 

Take the pressure off the weight and see how it equates 

If you hold yourself back to make papes, get it straight 

(Iriscience) 

You can use cash for tools, to get parks and pools 

Community centers, rec rooms and schools 

Book money, off the books and food money 

Rent money, electronic money and crew money 

First thing, flippin over dollars, searching 

For the eye in the chief corner stone in thirteen 

Stay beyond hungry and thirsty, ("dilated") 

We're damn near starvin and we're dehydrated 

(Chorus) 2x 

(Iriscience) 

No credit, everybody has to pay 

Dope music, spittin everything from hash to yay 

Watch the traffic or you're gonna bring crash this way 

Then have 'em swingin at my door like Cassius Clay (no matter) 

The game don't exist without roles and rules 

But comma manifest as the golden rule 

Rolled on wheels in the eighties, they would jack them fools 

Flashin trucks and jewels, but not tuckin they truck jewels 

(Evidence) 

Yo, since last year I've accumulated more money 

More big breaks, been dressy a little less bummy 

But more headaches and more pain in my stomach 

On top of that I got a lot of people actin funny 

But dummies get exposed when your weapon's are chose 

Power to spit out your mouth cold could leave a man fold 

Yo, been to certain places where the term "green" don't mean shit 

'Cause money's blue and that's what it takes to pay rent 

(Chorus) 2x 

(Jamaican man talking & Babu mixing) 

"Everybody got dreams of making cash money" 

"Everybody got dreams of making cash money" 

(Evidence) 

Yo, trained to be patient but still wait eagerly 

Approach easily, backed by walkin Evil Dee 

Sell medicine legally with my partners to our clients 

(Share the wealth with Babu and Iriscience) 

(Iriscience) 

Navy be , Henny be , Beat Junkies sound 

Expansion team, independent dollars, word a mouth 

There's cats with twenty/twenty that'll never see money 

To get the cash crop you have to plant seed money 

Twelve inches spark, now accountants crunch digits 

The same cat that battled them fools for lunch tickets 

Everyday the rates change and currency's strange 

???, international money exchange 

(Chorus) 4x 

Trade money, trade money, trade money 

Trade money, trade money, trade money 

Money exchange
