Verse 1:
I woke up in the morning, gotta chase that dough,
Got my mind on my money, and the world’s my show.
Guns in the alleyway, threats on my phone,
Life's a game of chess, but I feel like a pawn.
Chorus:
Guns and money, that's the way we roll,
In this concrete jungle, gotta protect your soul.
Every day's a struggle, every night’s a fight,
But we hustle for the dollar, we gon’ make it right.
Verse 2:
Stack it up, flip it, yeah we need that change,
Life of a hustler, it’s a wild, wild game.
Cross my path, and you will see the spark,
In the shadows of the night, that's where we leave our mark.
Chorus:
Guns and money, that's the way we roll,
In this concrete jungle, gotta protect your soul.
Every day's a struggle, every night’s a fight,
But we hustle for the dollar, we gon’ make it right.
Bridge:
It's the thrill of the chase, never stopping for a break,
In a world so cold, every move that I make,
Got the fire in my heart and the steel in my hand,
Kanye on the rise, you know I'm taking a stand.
Outro:
So we ride through the night, on this paper chase,
With guns and money, yeah we set the pace.
In the end it’s clear, we’re just trying to survive,
Guns and money, this is how we thrive.
