“Cars is cool to cop, but more important is lawyer fees” Jay Z

“Hood forever, I just act like I’m civilized
Really what’s in my mind is organizing a billion black motherfuckers
To take over JP and Morgan Goldman and Sachs
And teach the world facts and give Saudi they oil back” Nas

“Take no chances (no chances)
Stop freelancin’ (right now)
Invest in your future,
Don’t dilute your finances (uh huh)
401K, make sure it’s low risk
Then get some real estate (how much?)
4.2% thirty year mortgage,
That’s important, that’s a great deal
And if you can’t afford it,
Don’t forge it on your last bill
Renting is for suckers right now
A dependable savings,
And you’ll retire with money in your account” Kendrick Lamar

“To all my go supporters, go support us
Like a local black-owned grocery store
Cause in the hood shit ain’t passed down through blood|
It’s a dub on that
We get government aid
Spend it at their stores, sendin’ their kids through college
We need balance, so we can lease and own Ds in our projects
So I’m askin’ Gs to go in their pockets
The racial economic inequality, let’s try to solve it” Nas

“Mo money, yeah
Mo money, blow money, show money
Party money, side ho money, dope money
New clothes money from shit that I wrote money
So much money I don’t know who stole from me
Hard to keep track I’m used to having no money
Still broke compared to niggas with old money
I mean the type of niggas that laugh at Hov money
Billionaires with Petroleum and coal money
Probably kill themselves if the had Cole money
Talk shit and I’m a see you like you owe money
I’m wrapping up the album, fourth quarter I’m so money
I’m overseas looking for trees to grow money
Peter Popper off robbing people for hope money
Prostitutes collecting that let me stroke money
Put up a couple dollars for the liquor store money
Used to dread the strip club cause I couldn’t throw money
Now the strippers give a nigga the throat for no money”
How mama gonna teach you how to save your money
When she barely on the boat got stay afloat money
Blacks always broke cause we don’t know money
Spend it before we get it and could never hold money
No wallets, nah, nigga we’d rather fold money
Money control niggas, white man control money
Laughing like “yeah yeah my nigga, get your money” J Cole
