Greedy Songtext
von Thonio

It′s been a lot on my mind since my brother died
Plus my papa passed
Could've been sipping liquor or blowing grass
Could′ve been chasing women but it never lasts
Watching Eddie Murphy movies but I never laughed

All alone in my home, no comfort zone
Stomach rumbling, I wanna vomit, what is wrong?

Well, maybe I'm sick of the struggle
Every time I try to leave, man, I trip and I stumble
Went from woman to woman and job to job
It feels like every minute I'm switching my hustle
If rap don′t work then I′m back in my bubble
Find a way to fix it or look for something I'll stick with
A young knucklehead, a older nitwit
Roll another one, let′s just kick it
I'm talking to myself ′cause they don't listen
I′m looking in the mirror, that's my only witness


All I wanted was cars and tall homes
All I needed was cars and tall homes
I ain't mean to be, I, I ain′t mean to
I ain′t mean to be, I, I ain't mean to be greedy

Standing on the corner late nights, early mornings
Making money on blocks that had me feeling so dormant
Thought if I kept flipping this shit like an omelet
Me and Bill Gates would have something in common
′Cause I figured being rich would solve all your problems

Overlooking the fact that you become a target

Especially when you eating and those around you starving
Angels and demons having a conference in my conscience
I let 'em handle they affairs
They say I′m poisoning my people, can't say I don′t care
But I had more stress attending job fairs
And I'm sure we all was taught man, life's not fair
So to get that big house for mom dukes
I guess I′ma cheat too if that′s what it equals
Tell them fiends light it 'til it′s clear

If my rhyme book can't get me there


All I wanted was cars and tall homes
All I needed was cars and tall homes
I ain′t mean to be, I, I ain't mean to
I ain′t mean to be, I, I ain't mean to be greedy
