Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look at all the money in the building
Stack it up, stack it up to the ceiling
Stack it up 'til it look like a building
Look at all the money in the building
All the paper in the city in the building
Stack it up, stack it up to the ceiling
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Big (bricks), big (bricks), big (bricks), big
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Big (bricks), big (bricks), big (bricks), big
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Look at all the money in the building
Look at all the money in the building
Every nigga in here looking like a scammer
I'm 'gon be on my way up
But I'm in my own way, uh
It's the itty bitty things that always get to me
I wanted to stay home, oh-whoa yea
And now I'm in the line at the end of the bathroom
Just paid too much for the back room
All of my friends act a fool, we wack, ooh
I just did what I did 'cause I had to
Fuck, I'll make it last if I have to
And I just got the call
My money on the way (hold up)
Look at all the money in the building
Look at all the money in the building
Stack it up, stack it up to the ceiling
Stack it up 'til it look like a building
Look at all the money in the building
All the paper in the city in the building
Stack it up, stack it up to the ceiling
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Big (bricks), big (bricks), big (bricks), big
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Big (bricks), big (bricks), big (bricks), big
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Big (bricks), big (bricks), big (bricks), big
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Look at all the money in the building
Look at all the money in the building
Standing on tables, yeah
And stacking my bank roll
'Cause a couple million really ain't much to me
And I've been trying to lay low, ooh whoa uh
And now I'm in the line at the end of the bathroom
Just paid too much for the back room
All of my friends act a fool, we wack, ooh
I just did what I did 'cause I had to
Fuck, I'll make it last if I have to
'Cause I just got the call
My money on the way (hold up!)
Look at all the money in the building
Look at all the money in the building
Stack it up, stack it up to the ceiling
Stack it up 'til it look like a building
Look at all the money in the building
All the paper in the city in the building
Stack it up, stack it up to the ceiling
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Big (bricks), big (bricks), big (bricks), big
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Big (bricks), big (bricks), big (bricks), big
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Big (bricks), big (bricks), big (bricks), big
All I see is bricks on top of bricks
Look at all the money in the building
Look at all the money in the building
