C.R.E.A.M. (Cash Rules Everything Around Me)
Wu-Tang Clan
4:13The Universal family is a sun, moon, and star It's a man, woman, and child It's your love that makes me better If I start to love you the way you need me to And I need you to know that I care for you, yes, I do All my kings and queens, love is what we need As the world spins like a vinyl, let me set the record straight My heart would steady break Every time your breakfast plate was featherweight 'Cause should be better except it ain't The ghetto's a septic tank How could you expect a saint? Opportunities just seem to be way farther The reach seem way harder, you gotta think way smarter Memoirs of a teenage father How could he raise daughters without the cash money like DeWayne Carter? We was livin' in the jungles where Denzel filmed Training Day With killers on our staircase, still God made a way Moved back to Long Beach, the Crip Set We didn't have a whip yet I walked y'all to school prayin' the rain away Kindergarten to college, yeah I raised my daughters, y'all They had a good mama, sometimes they father would drop the ball But all them problems got resolved and as I recall The realest words that I ever heard is, "Love conquers all" It's your love that makes me better If I start to love you the way you need me to And I need you to know that I care for you, yes, I do All my kings and queens, love is what we need I'll make life my prison, live unconditional First you never leave, God stay with me Visions of my husband and I by the sea Shall love rise, we're planted, sugar on them bees I can't go back now, can't you see? So I make up about how I achieved Homeless nights, rough family Don't tell me God is dead when His love saved me Dear mama, sorry I ain't see you in a minute I be always on my grind trying to get these albums finished Hope you got that bread I sent you With the cheese in your account When you see my little homie, tell him daddy had to bounce Yeah, I'm looking for that big house Something that's worth it And I'ma give that bread to you, mama So you can make that purchase You taught me how to maintain when difficulty surface I want to give you something back to show you I ain't perfect It's your love that makes me better If I start to love you the way you need me to And I need you to know that I care for you, yes, I do All my kings and queens, love is what we need
