Urban Fu$e - Retire In Peace (RIP)

Retire in peace, retire in peace
Flyin overseas, I'm a doe freak, RIP
Retire in peace, retire in peace
Countin all my cash flow trees
Let me tell you sad story up in a song
Elderly cashier whose savings all gone
Cuz Apple, Microsoft, real estate 'n Amazon,
Are better to own than Gucci 'n Louis Vuitton
You know why people lose? they don't know the rule seventy two
That's compound interest dude
It works cuz at 9 percent, interest will make your money hustle
You'd be glad and every 8 years your papers are 'bout to double
But you, you droppin 2G on Vercace,
5 bucks at Starbucks, that's a million dollar purse 'n coffee
If grandma took the doe 'n invested in Exxon
90 years later, she'd be called an icon
R.I.P, Retire in peace, retire in peace
Flyin' overseas, I'm a doe freak
Retire in peace, retire in peace
Countin' all my cash flow trees, R.I.P
Let me tell you about an uncle we all have
You'd better know your math, first paycheck he's taking half
Then laughs, annoyin cuz he says he works on your behalf
Every pay cycle he says: Oops! that's tax
Oh My God you oughta know your 3 tax buckets
One, before-tax money, means that tax sucks it
Take money from 401k you can't duck it
Understand the tax game, you'll crush it,
You don't question, look, when you change jobs, learn to roll over
Ain't talk 'bout a dog, thinkin like a stock broker
Retirement to an I-R-A
More options to invest, self-direct it everyday
Retire in peace, retire in peace
Flyin overseas, I'm a doe freak
Retire in peace, retire in peace
Countin all my cash flow trees, R.I.P.
Retire in peace, retire in peace
Flyin overseas, I'm a doe freak
Retire in peace, retire in peace
Countin all my cash flow trees, R.I.P.
Let me tell ya, twelve bucks a day, in Roth I-R-A
Is much better than a 401(k)
You're taxed once then you never have to pay
Pay yourself first I'm tellin you all day
Finally, the last bucket you ain't wanna play
OK let me demonstrate, bank is where your money lay
You're a good saver, but on that money the tax you already paid
Earned interest, give 'em tax, that's a double blade
Next year, the tax game remains
Yearly doe made, uncle gladly takes
The rich gets richer knowin how to set the stage
Keep uncle away cuz you found the secret page
Retire in peace, retire in peace
Flyin overseas, I'm a doe freak
Retire in peace, retire in peace
Countin all my cash flow trees
R.I.P, R.I.P.
