Hey yo money makes the world go 'round we know that

Is it gonna change your life if you own that

Is it gonna have you high in the sky where you're so glad

Will it just define what you're known as

While I'm wishing that I had a mint

I'd share it round if I had some riches

See with money though yo it can't bring us happiness

But it will bring the things we'd be happy with

Indeed

While the homeless are begging for some change

There are some who are begging for a change

You disagree start begging for a change

We need change but everything's the same

I can't be another one running in a rat race

Living in a life where it's all about the cash mate

So forgive me I'm a go and practice me

'Cause I feel like that's for me so

I know that it goes on but we don't want to know that

I know that I've been wrong but I don't want to go back

So I throw it throw it all away

I'll throw it throw it all away

Yo meet generation yes we party so much

Got our folks worried that our hearts will blow up

It's funny that we can't say no but

I hope we don't hit it too hard and go nuts

Yo we will know in time

Man this sh*t that kills us is why we all feel so alive

And get paid on Friday from working all week then

Forget it all by blowing it on the weekend

And some will say 60 is a fool

The kid's a beginner because he didn't finish school

Yo it wasn't for me mate

Working in the office on weekdays is not what I'll be mate

It ain't 'cause I'm broke that I'm wanting to seek change

I'm a treat this like my job and I'll see pay

So forgive me maybe it's my lack of sleep

But I feel like I have to dream so

I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that

I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back

So I throw it throw it all away

I'll throw it throw it all away

Hey yo I can't be one of them dudes no more

I ain't gonna be wearing them shoes no more

Won't waste time all for the loot no more

With no idea what I can use it for

Yeah yo I don't wanna work 'til I'm fifty

And then spent what I've earn't 'til I'm sixty

So forgive me I know it's got a hold on me

But no way is it controlling me no

I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that

I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back

So I throw it throw it all away

I'll throw it throw it all away

I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that

I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back

So I throw it throw it all away

I'll throw it throw it all away
