Overall Meaning

The song Money by Space touches on the theme of money, respect and hard work. The opening lines, "They say it's all about money, Take my pride, But can't take that from me" outlines the idea that money can take away material things and even dignity, but it cannot strip one of their inherent self-worth. The artist then goes on to express his desire to live a lavish life, surrounded by diamonds and luxuries, but acknowledges he does not have a solid plan to achieve it. The song then takes a turn towards the difficulties of making money, highlighting the importance of being wary of others who might have ulterior motives.


The lyrics also stress the importance of hard work, noting that success comes from "doing hard work and dealing with the blues." The artist is aware that many people talk about respect, but not many genuinely give it. The chorus "They always talk respect and shit, but they ain't really respecting shit," drives this point home. The final verse discusses the difficulty in breaking into the music industry and the pressure to create hits. The overarching message conveyed in the song is to stay focused, persevere through hardships, and always be aware of those around you.
