Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got my mind on my money, and I'm not goin' away
So keep on gettin' your paper

Holiday Season, Busta Bus, Nicki Minaj
Billions baby, Frank Bill-ion (C.I.t.)
This is a world premier, Style on them (Let's get it)

Now you hold it's your excellence
See I T.C. Oh forward slash president
East side resident oh so evident
Brinx Billy ride cousin black on black phantom 26's on the side of them
Ninas on the side of them
Goonies on the side of them
Anybody can get it boy be careful on the side of them
These niggas are burial guns no fear of you
Money hungry honey with me if you holla she gonna carry you
Flyer than a aerial, there I go, Jet-to
Sittin' on my feet when I'm stuntin' on them people
I tell no fables everything chillin'

You workin' for short bread ain't my money long youngin'

So mind on my motherfuckin' money mind on my motherfuckin' money

Time after time again I like niggas
And remind niggas how I hold out on motherfuckers

Niggas out here frontin' about they bread you can't trust it
Niggas my money so stupid call me warren busta buss
Nigga glad it ain't a toss and everythin' about me butters I've been countin'
Money so long I see dollar signs and different colors
My money is smear and smothered your money you hear me brother
Been about that bread like I was broke or still in the gutta
And in case you ain't know there will be no replacement
And them bags of Arab money I got stashed in the basement face it
When ever I shine I glisten and when ever I talk you listen
Ain't no money gettin' made in these street without my permission
I keeps it drug infested my money is well connected
It's to the point where my conglomerate is well respected
You need to check my method
I promise you I be the wrong nigga
When it comes to my money that you ever want to mess with
Grind like missionary labor holdin' indicatory paper
You ain't know? My team is filled with consiglieres
I don't give a fuck about your stipulations
Type of bread appropriate for every situation
You can tell by the jewelry sittin' on my collar
From the bread to the crib I know all about the dollar

You know I ain't into all of this long talkin' shit
Shit is confusin' me when I'm countin' paper
Brinx Busta Bust bitch
You know I only wanna inspire y'all to get it like how we get it




You know it's a recession out here, we all need to get it
So when we walk around we ain't gotta look like foolish niggaz
