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