Being in this thing don't sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came the struggle with my head high You being broke think you know it feel like Being broke made me rich, being broke made me broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Gotta keep the stove hot so it right, if everybody eating that's a good night Headed to the lost why I took flight, the hard times made for a life Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich Being made me rich, being broke made me rich
Never fell in love 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 the bread that I'm gon' blow But I do what it feel like to go to school with the knock off shoes Eating free lunch, tryna act all cool, boy you better that we paid our dues Never would I trade that, nah, 'cause it made me better, it could made me bitter You can't ride with the struggle, can't no figure, but it made me richer Being broke made me rich, and being low made you But low made me high, take time if you wanna get it
Being broke in this thing don't sit Do it for my folk, get by I came through the struggle with my high You being broke think you what it feel like Being broke made me rich, being made 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 broke made me Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich
Money may made me richer, but the struggle made me richer than I ever been 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 counting all my pennies, counting all my figures, all up in my business, man Now they watching what I'm spending, 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, made in royalty, but it's so good, why I mention it
Being in this thing don't sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came through the with my head high You being broke think you what it feel like Being made me rich, being broke made me rich Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich
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 made for a good life Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
