In It For The Money
Lumidee featuring Snoop Dogg Lyrics

Lemme get this money together real quick like, what to do?
Let's quickly arrange and collect this money, what's the plan?

Big Snoop D.O. double G with the home girl, Lumidee
Snoop Dogg and Lumidee are together.

And we in it for the money, in it for the money
We are only interested in the money.

Hey, cheese
An expression to indicate a desire for money.

I wake up every morning gotta get it 'cause
I have to wake up every day to earn money because...

I'm addicted to money 'cause, see, money is like a drug
...I am addicted to money because it is like a drug.

It's the root of all evil, my people told me what it does
My community has warned me that money is the cause of all evils.

If you stick to it, get to it, do it now, live it up
If you make money your priority, work hard and enjoy life.

Been in the hood since Job Noby stopped me
I have lived in the hood for a long time.

Talkin' 'bout what they heard how they got me
People spreading rumors about me.

Man, listen, look, I came in the game
Listen, I entered the music industry.

With the same dudes now throwin' dirt on my name
The same people who supported me are now criticizing me.

But it ain't nothin' to a girl like me
But it doesn't affect me.

Love me or hate me I'ma still do me
Whether people like me or not, I will continue to be myself.

And I've been through the ups and the downs
I have experienced both good and bad times.

And no matter what they say, look, the girl's still around
Regardless of their criticisms, I am still here.

This whole industry is funny
The music industry is strange/funny.

They got me turning off the radio
I am not listening to the radio because of it.

Don't watch no videos, I can't get with it, no
I don't watch music videos because I can't agree with it.

Yes, I've learned how to play it, I can show and prove
I have learned how to play the game and can prove it.

And if you ain't makin' money you ain't makin' moves
If you are not making money, you are not being productive.

Wait, you're gettin' phased 'cause I'm goin' all rounds
Don't be surprised by my constant activity in the game.

Up to the ceiling, I'm feelin' like a million away from two billion
I feel like I have a long way to go to reach my financial goals.

And I ain't stopped dealin', but am still in the game, still hearin' my name
I am still actively working in the industry and known by my name.

Half a million dollar car, quarter million dollar chain
I have expensive cars and jewelry.

Money changes your life from a butter to a steak knife
Money changes your lifestyle dramatically.

Used to take life for granted
I used to not value my life.

Now am known as one of the richest rappers
Now I am famous and wealthy.

In the whole motherfuckin' planet
In the entire world.

Ya dig it, I'm in it for the money
Do you understand? I am only interested in the money.

I make it rain, I let it snow
I spend a lot of money.

That twenty plus seven more zeros
A very large amount of money.

Add it up, ya livin' wrong, better get right
If you're not making money, you're doing something wrong.

Stop being broke and get ya monies tight
Become financially stable and secure.

So what are you in it for?
What is your motivation?

The question remains
The question still needs to be answered.
