Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mo money mo mo money mo
You bring me trou
You bring me trou
Yeah mo money mo
You bring me trouble
You bring me trouble (Yeah having money is like a relationship)
But I'm still in love (Know I'm saying)
Everybody always gone get in your business
Try to break it up try to get involved in it
But they really need to mind they own business
Money don't do nothing but bring you trouble
But for some reason I keep chasing you
I must be in love

You so bad that we getting mad
Somebody that they wish they had
You're a dime and you know you mine
Flipping with you right in my slab
Relationship ain't the same
As the others back in the past
See I tried to have someone like you
But didn't add up to half

Cruising it with my queen
The jewels the wrist and the bling
We moving and hit the scene
The movie the flick a dream
Painting the city green
Like green is the coolest thing
You're oozing up in the jeans
We doing it as a team

I hopped in a different slab
That ain't got the easy take
But you looking so good to them
That they told me tell me pass
Never told me slow it down
The rims keep on moving fast
When I'm driving I almost crash
When I stare at your sexy ass

The longer we stay together
Your appearance is looking better
Not better off with the fellas
You gonna be mine forever
They always loving the yella's
That's why I nicknamed you cheddar
But they'd better not touch ya
Or better see my beretta

You'll never leave by my side
Even though they all try to take you
Never turning on me
Even though they all try to make you
As long as you by my side
There's nothing I couldn't pay for
We'll make up and never break up
I stay in love with you paper

Money can't money can't buy me love
But she's acting like she love me
Cause I'm riding on dubs
Money can't money can't buy me trust
But my money is attracted to the backstabbers

Money bring money bring plenty haters
It be looking so good
That I'm ma prolly fall in love
Money you bring me trouble
But I still think I love you

She's as black as a African
But they call her American
Very thin yeah she be messing
Around with married men
When he comes home
She's never asking him where he been
Cause ninety nine percent of the time
She was right there with him

Chances of him losing her in this life are very slim
Think money doesn't grow on trees
You ain't checking every limb
She gone be around for a while
She wants to marry him
She gone still survive when he dies
She'll have to bury him

When you know you're with a dime
They'll treat you like you're special
Broad that is sleep and you're sick
Because yours left you
Bring her to the church and
The pastor says God bless you
Bring her round your boys
But be careful they gone get you

The cash in a hidden place
Ironically called it safe
And you prolly leave it in the safe
Like it's safe in the realest place
I hope you gone stay awake
Cause they gonna enter and break
And the safe is the first thing
That them haters gone try to take

Money can't money can't buy me love
But she's acting like she love me
Cause I'm riding on dubs
Money can't money can't buy me trust
But my money is attracted to the backstabbers

Money bring money bring plenty haters
It be looking so good that I'ma prolly fall in love
Money you bring me trouble
But I still think I love you

He introduced her to his mother
His mother said that she love her
And after that he discovered
His brother done tried to cut her
They messing with one another
Saw her under the covers
And now he gotta show his brother
The meaning of keep it gutter

And all I know is I love her
I mean he loves her
Tried to control his temper
As he leaned in and hugged her
Just enough to get close to her
He screamed as he shoved her
Out of the exit heard his brother
Scream (You the buster)

Don't touch her what you better slow your roll quick
Now matter fact back up
Right now before I click click
What's this told you to stop playing with me boy
Hurry up girl let's go
You bring me trouble

She's falling to the floor
He picked her up and he's grabbing her
Yelling out like he's mad at her
Sounding like he's an animal
Pulling and grabbing her
Now he already damaged her
He throws her in the trunk
And the talks to her like a passenger

And that's when uh
You hearing the tires peel
He's speeding out of the driveway
Approaching the highest hill
Every time that you called me
I came like I served you
Even the boss I used to work for had the nerve to

Tell me I wasn't good enough
And didn't deserve you
Told me I wasn't good enough
And didn't deserve you
I fought to keep you in my life
And this the thanks I get
Well thanks for all the good memories
I think I'm sick (You bring me trouble but I'm still in love)

Today we bring you breaking news
Looks like there's a major car accident
Authorities are in persuit of an unnamed individual
Who crashed his car into the front entrance
Of a gas station on the northwest side of town

Although there is not much information
Known about the suspect
We are told that the assailant tried to get away on foot
And the police are in close pursuit

The reason for the crash
May have been a loaded
Nine millimeter handgun
That may have accidentally been fired
We'll give you more details




As the story unfold later today
On the evening news

Overall Meaning

Chamillionaire's song "I" is a thoughtful exploration of the contradictory relationship he has with money. The song title itself suggests a deep introspection and self-analysis. Chamillionaire cleverly employs metaphors comparing money and wealth to relationships. He acknowledges and highlights the paradoxical nature of wealth: it has the power to bring pleasure and pain simultaneously. The more one is invested in it, the more trouble it can bring. Despite realizing that having money attracts haters and that money brings trouble, he still finds himself chasing it. Chamillionaire makes a statement about the inherent conflict; while money brings "plenty haters," he still believes that he's in love with it. Through insightful lyricism, Chamillionaire reflects the complexity of our individual relationship with money and how it affects our identity and well-being.


Throughout the song, Chamillionaire's lyrics shed light on the fact that money cannot buy love and trust; these are the things that involve a much more profound human connection. Simultaneously, he examines the relationship between money and power dynamics where it splits families and relationships apart. Additionally, Chamillionaire gives his insights into a few individual experiences that he and others have gone through to explain and show how money can change relationships and lead to violence.
