Yeah slow money better than no money/ we know how hard it is to get a job/ a lot of our people suffering/ struggling to look for a job/ not being accepted/ and trying to strive just to earn every dollar/ a lot of people say you gotta work for it/ grind for a job/ but I don't believe that's even the case/ cause see how you grinding for a job/ when you ain't doing shit to grind for it but turn in a fucking piece of paper/ and waiting for a motherfucker to reach out/ and just to say yes or no but that's how it go/ the typical white system is what we call it/ they determine whether niggas can eat or not/ its a sad world we live in/ we ain't even helping each other out/ niggas still tryna eat/ and white people still fucking around/ white people like to be greedy so that's why they control all of the opportunities/ they don't wanna see blacks make it/ niggas will still be grateful If they're able to get a job/ so at least they'll have some money in their pockets/ and they're able to feed their families/ the world would be a more happy place/ a more better place/ if whites can get rid of the mindset that it's still segregation going on and let go of the past/ this is not the 50s no more/ its time to eat together. [Chorus 1x:] Slow money better than no money/ niggas do anything for a dollar whether it's to hustle or rob banks/ we all gotta do what we gotta do whether it's necessary or not/ whether it's to knock a nigga's head off/ niggas will kill for a dollar/ money is the root of all evil/ a lot of souls lost behind a dollar It's hard for a nigga when they come home from jail/ parole officers not even helping them/ niggas can't even make a decent salary/ they place them in a fucking tire shop where all jail niggas work/ if they're lucky they may work at AutoZone/ all parole officers do Is nag them on since niggas can't get a job/ and don't realize that it's hard to get a job/ and don't realize how hard it is to be black/ they're not making easier/ since niggas can't make ends meet they go back to that street life because that's how they make their living/ its complicated at the same time cause niggas tryna do right and repent/ but its not working for them/ so they keep that street shit lowkey and hope niggas don't snitch/ they pray to God that they don't go back/ babymamas not supporting them/ they get angry and cheat. [Chorus 1x:] Slow money better than no money/ niggas do anything for a dollar/ whether it's to hustle or rob banks/ we all gotta do what we gotta do whether it's necessary or not/ whether it's to knock a nigga's head off/ niggas will kill for a dollar/ money is the root of all evil/ lot of souls lost behind a dollar/ niggas steal and kill/ lot of niggas work low end jobs when they come home from jail
