Make The Money Lyrics - The Heist - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis

Now, this is my job, I will not quit it 

Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished 

Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance 

That's just the work, regardless of who's listening, listening 

Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior 

Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious 

Classroom of kids, or a venue performing 

If I'd had done for the money I'd have been a fucking lawyer 

Concrete, vagabond, van telling stories 

Humbled by the road, I'm realizing I'm not important 

See life's a beautiful struggle, I record it 

Hope it helps you maneuvering through yours and 

That's why we stay in the lab at night 

I've been staring into this pad for over half my life 

A true artist won't be satisfied 

So I guess that's the sacrifice 

And I say...

Make the money, don't let the money make you 

Change the game, don't let the game change you 

I'll forever remain faithful 

All my people stay true 

I say... 

Make the money, don't let the money make you 

Change the game, don't let the game change you 

I'll forever remain faithful 

All my people stay true 

Forget about the fame, fortune and the mansion 

Sitting and tripping watching myself on a plasma 

Yeah, I start slipping when I'm thinking about that stuff 

Ego won't swole until the karma catches that up, that up 

I'm my grandma's number one grandson 

I lost myself to remember who that was 

We start thinking about some kicks, a necklace 

What I really need is a job off craig's list 

Take away the dot com, name, love 

See, you keep the issues but you take away the drugs 

And I had to find out who I really was 

Who I really wasn't 

So sick of who I was becoming 

Yeah, tired of running 

Time to look at the man in the mirror until I can learn to love him

Make the money, don't let the money make you 

Change the game, don't let the game change you 

I'll forever remain faithful 

All my people stay true 

I said... 

Make the money, don't let the money make you 

Change the game, don't let the game change you 

I'll forever remain faithful 

All my people stay true 

Of course I want dubs and a candy painted 'lac 

Watch the videos and get the girls in the back 

But if that's what I believe in, and the reason that I rap 

Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track 

Make the money, don't let the money make you 

Change the game, don't let the game change you 

I'll forever remain faithful 

Stay true, stay true 

And I said... 

Make the money, don't let the money make you 

Change the game, don't let the game change you 

I'll forever remain faithful 

Stay true, stay true, stay true 

Forget about the fame 

I said forget about the fame 

I'll forever remain faithful 

Stay true, stay true, stay true
