Money
Michael Kiwanuka Tom Misch Lyrics

Money, money, is it really love?
Questioning whether money can truly bring love and happiness

Money, will it be love?
Wondering if love can be bought with money

Oh, man, again, I swear
Expressing frustration with the negative impact money has on love

Money, money, I feel it killing love
Acknowledging that excessive focus on money can damage relationships and diminish love

I think I want everything
Desiring to have everything in life, including material possessions

Everything all on my own
Preferring to attain everything independently, rather than sharing it with others

Can't you see my diamond ring?
Boasting about the expensive jewelry they possess

Twenty thousand carat gold
Having an abundance of wealth and luxury

Girl, I wanna talk to you
Trying to woo someone with their wealth and power

I can be your money tree
Promising to provide endless financial resources

One hundred million, maybe two
Displaying an excessive amount of wealth and promising to offer it all

More than I can ever see
Drowning in their own wealth and seemingly valuing it over love

I could buy an aeroplane
Boasting about the ability to purchase anything they want

Fly you all around the world
Willing to use their wealth to impress and win someone over

I'm spending without feeling ashamed
Not caring about the consequences of excessive spending, as they believe their wealth will take care of everything

Spending, 'cause I'm all alone
Using spending as a means of filling the void left by loneliness

Girl, I wanna make you mine
Desiring someone to be their partner and possibly using their wealth to win them over

Can't you give your heart to me?
Asking for romantic affection and attention

I would give you every dime
Promising to shower someone with endless riches

You're more than I can ever be
Recognizing that their wealth cannot match up to the worth of true love and companionship

All money lies, it's no surprise we fight
Acknowledging that there is a deceitful nature to wealth that causes conflicts and disagreements

When money tries to ruin everything
Highlighting how wealth can ruin everything, including love and happiness

Pain in disguise, money can't cover up the lies
Recognizing that money cannot always mask the truth and hurt caused by it

I need true love tonight
Yearning for genuine and authentic love instead of superficial wealth and materialism

Money, feel it, feel it come
Experiencing the allure of money and its ability to offer instant gratification

By me, again, I swear
Expressing the temptation and pull of money that they constantly feel

Money, money, is it filled with love?
Continuing to ask whether money can truly bring love and happiness

Money
Suggesting that money holds so much power and influence that it is all-consuming
