Just a thought that's in the back of my mind
They tried to tell you money doesn't make you happy they lied
Ay, who started up that rumor damn they had to be high
Let me get rich I'll be the judge and actually decide
You telling me your rich problems with your racks in a safe
Hearing bout it when you broke is like a smack in the face
Cuz all my issues all revolve around the bag that I chase
And when I try to get ahead they put you back in your place

Just a thought that's in the back of my head
I keep on hearing money doesn't make you happy they said
Well, I'd be happy if I didn't have to ask all my friends
To borrow money so my mom could afford grabbing her meds
Yeah, I'd be happy man, 100%
If I ain't have two jobs just to cover the rent
Barely seeing daylight is how my summers are spent
And I could focus on some different shit other than bread
I've been tryna make these promises right
But these finances always got me causing a fight
With my girl and that's the reason we ain't talking at night
Cuz we both stressed out about how are pockets are tight
Man I'd be happy if I wasn't a wreck
Let's be real I'd be happy if I wasn't in debt
Doing shit that was just for a check
I pray to god for peace of mind even if it's just for a sec

Just a thought that's in the back of my mind
They tried to tell you money doesn't make you happy they lied
Ay, who started up that rumor damn they had to be high
Let me get rich I'll be the judge and actually decide
You telling me your rich problems with your racks in a safe
Hearing bout it when you broke is like a smack in the face
Cuz all my issues all revolve around the bag that I chase
And when I try to get ahead they put you back in your place
