Shawn E - Broke

Yeah Yeah, Yeah Yeah, Yeah Yeah, Yeah Yeah, Yeah Yeah
Said yeah I'm broke (Said yeah I'm broke)
And I been that way (And I been that way)
It ain't no joke (It ain't no joke)
When you live that way (When you live that way)
(Not at all motherfucker)

Cause I ain't got no money to spend
Said I ain't got no, I ain't got no money to spend
They asking like Shawn why you bummy again?
That's cause I ain't got no I ain't got no money to spend
(You see it's all about the money)
Cause I ain't got no money to spend
Said I ain't got no, I ain't got no money to spend
They asking like Shawn why you bummy again?
That's cause I ain't got no I ain't got no money to spend
(You see it's all about the money)

Yeah, dead broke and man I'm proud of it
Not at all I get to cringing at the sound of it
Counting change, when my view should be a mountain range
Plotting on the mall fountains man it's gotten strange
I'm not the same, need a doctor for the pocket pain
I wanna eat at Benihana's but the wallet claims
Def not, guess that Wendy's is the next stop
Indigestion feeling like a chest shot, I'm not healthy
Little dollar raiser did not help me, an extra fifty bucks
Yo for the week that barely gets men lunch
I felt like giving up, it's really something I considered but
I think I'd like it better when I've risen up
Now I'm planning an attack
All my insecurities I'll bandage with a plaque
Taking all my pain and I'm branding it for rap
Anything to get myself up out of standing where I'm at
That's a fact

Cause I ain't got no money to spend
Said I ain't got no, I ain't got no money to spend
They asking like Shawn why you bummy again?
That's cause I ain't got no I ain't got no money to spend
(You see it's all about the money)
Cause I ain't got no money to spend
Said I ain't got no, I ain't got no money to spend
They asking like Shawn why you bummy again?
That's cause I ain't got no I ain't got no money to spend
(You see it's all about the money)

Sweatpants that's full of burn holes
Tryna flip it to an album that'll turn gold
And then eventually plat
Remember back in school they were never mentioning that
That's called actual work, pulling myself back from the dirt
Into a hundred man cause that's what I'm worth
You see that I'm a diamond in the rough
I'm steadily reminded that it's tough
Seen a lot and yo I find that it's enough
But my head's level I'm a stick to the grind
Tired of buying swishes with some nickles and dimes
Until I make it, I don't think I'll get to recline
Im sick of this I'm, hitting this ridiculous climb
Cause the top is where it's at
I'm looking from the bottom and I see it staring back
It could be a problem but yo I aint scared of that
Gotta go on down the road just to get to where I'm at that's a fact yeah

Yeah aye, yeah aye, yeah You see I'm broke motherfucker

Said I remember days where the problems weren't much
All we ever needed was a dollar for a dutch
Four was to a gram, and we we're getting high
Used to be the fam, now we getting by
Walking into work and I'm asking for respect
Cause when I pay a bill man it's halting up my check
Built it from the ground but it's getting hard to lay it
How can I promote when I can't afford to pay it
You can think it's funny cause I flip it to a joke
But it's hard to live a life when you always living broke
Yeah yeah aye
