The Lox- "money, Power, Respect" Lyrics - Wrestling

Intro: Lil' Kim 

See I believe in money, power and respect 

First you the money 

Then you get the motherf--kin' power 

And after you get the f--kin' power 

You get the f--kin' ni--az to respect you 

chorus (Lil' Kim) 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

You can sleep at night 

You'll see the light 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

Verse One: Sheek 

Aye yo my whole click bout it bout it 

We take yours while you pout about it 

Truck, step out the Horace wanna crowd around it 

You can see me on Optimum TV, or in the bathroom 

Turn the light out, scream! 

Bloody Mary, one two three 

Sheek ain't ya usual friend, but I can set you up like Kaiser 

Walk straight up the end, I'm done with ice and charms 

I'm tryin' to ice my whole caskit when I'm gone 

Pull up with class on the Don, once I meet 'em I greet 'em 

Kiss his feet for freedom, tell him thank you Lord 

Cause on Earth I was getttin' bored 

Now resurect me back to this cat called Sheek 

So I can make this album get back the cats that's weak 

230, 6'2", need funds from you that's like a cat versus a pitbull 

Gun, no flip for, keep hunger 

And plan for the future cause you figure you gon' be older 

When way longer then ya gon' be younger 

chorus (Lil' Kim) 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

You can sleep at night 

You'll see the light 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

It's the key to life 

Verse Two: Styles 

(clock tickin') Only time can tell how the clock tick 

I really love here but I'm still a hostage 

Two personallities, check the posture 

Smoke out the mouth, clear out the nostrals 

Thinkin' death, the life seems scarey 

I'm passin' graveyards, seeing people Hail Mary 

I ain't chillin', till I'm out 

Parash you and race my man in mild climate 

Called out ten diamonds, twenty five thousand a peice 

F--k streets, tryin' to own the island forget about woulin' 

Tri ridin', in the car that be glidin' 

If I should you were I lived you would think I was hottest 

Sling dick to the chicks who that don't speak English 

Wake up to Trinidad, like f---in' I'm rich 

Come back, probably jet, live on set 

If you can sh-t go out and spit bragoits 

chorus (Lil' Kim overlaps last line) 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

You can sleep at night 

You'll see the light 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

Verse Three: Jadakiss 

Yo yo yo yo yo nuttin' but the hotness, whenever we drop this 

Monotnis, for ya'll to keep hatin' 

Cause ya'll never gon' stop us, I keep my rocks spotless 

And my ho-s topless, take time try to figure out who The Lox is? 

Spare no one, keep rhymes like Shogun 

You scared to blow one, get robbed with your own guns 

If I don't respect you I'ma check you 

And if I don't kiss you I'm gon' peck you 

Right before I wet you, I sneeze on tracks and bless you 

I'm special, and if you like workin' out then I'm gon' strech you 

Hustilin' is dead but we still get red, turn the spots in the bakery 

To give back bread, and ya'll said my money spent 

But it's in the bed, so when the feds come the dogs can't get a scent 

And my story, self explainitory 

That I'm the hotess thing on the streets 

And ya'll ain't got nothing for me 

chorus (Lil' Kim) 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

You can sleep at night 

You'll see the light 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

Verse Four: DMX 

(arff! arff!) This is the beat that I can freak it 

Just drop the reals, plus the ni--a with the ill 

Ya'll ni--az know my skills, ask from the grills 

Get 'em up, spit 'em up 

Red 'em up, then watch them come 

Get 'em up, set 'em up 

Rather do dirt then get dirt, b--ch I make ya sh-t hurt 

Then step back, like I did work 

This ain't no fu--in' game, what'cha think I'm playin' 

Till you layin', so where the junkyard decayin' 

Moms at home prayin', till you comin' home but you not 

Just sittin' up in the trunk startin' to rot 

And Hell is hot, only cause I'm here now baby 

It's goin' down baby, peep the four pound baby 

And let off up in a n--a, specially if he think he bigga 

Then my motherfuckin' trigga, did I? 

Can I get mine, is it gone 

DMX representin' one time it's on 

chorus (Lil' Kim overlaps last line) 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

You can sleep at night 

You'll see the light 

It's the key to life 

Money power respect 

That you need in life 

Money power respect 

You'll be eatin' right 

Money power respect 

Money power respect 

Money power respect
