Being broke in this thing sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came through the with my head high You being broke you know what it feel like Being broke made me rich, broke made me rich Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich
Gotta keep the stove hot so it cook right, if everybody eating that's a night Headed to the lost why I took flight, the times made for a good life Being made me rich, being broke made me rich Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich
Never in love with the Coco, Never had to hold up a store with the .44 Never had the door kicked in by the feds, Laying in the bed with the that I'm gon' blow But I do know what it feel to go to school with the knock off shoes Eating lunch, tryna act all cool, boy you better know that we paid our dues would I trade that, nah, 'cause it made me better, it could have made me bitter You can't ride the struggle, can't name no figure, but it made me richer Being broke made me rich, and low made you quit But being low me high, take time if you wanna get it
Being broke in this thing sit right Do it for my folk, get by I through the struggle with my head high You being think you know what it feel like Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich
Gotta keep the hot so it cook right, if everybody eating that's a good night Headed to the lost why I took flight, the times made for a good life Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich Being broke made me rich, broke made me rich
Money may have made me richer, but the struggle made me richer than I ever Learn the hustle, use ya' muscles, to keep ya' mind up on the future, man Came out the trenches, government in the beginning Keeping cans for the pennies, we saving that after dinner Now they counting all my pennies, all my figures, all up in my business, man Now they watching I'm spending, wonderin' what I got, and wonder how I'ma get it, man I was bought before I had a dollar, being handed made me stupid rich Rich in loyalty, in royalty, but it's so good, that why I mention it
Being broke in thing don't sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came through the struggle with my high You being broke think you know what it feel Being made me rich, being broke made me rich Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich
Gotta keep the stove hot so it cook right, if everybody that's a good night Headed to the why I took flight, the hard times made for a good life Being broke made me rich, being made me rich Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich
