Being broke in this thing 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 broke made me rich, being broke made me broke made 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 hard times made for a life Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich
fell 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 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 we paid our dues Never I trade that, nah, 'cause it made me better, it could have made me bitter You can't ride with the struggle, can't no figure, but it made me richer Being broke me rich, and being low made you quit But being low me high, take time if you wanna get it
Being broke in thing don't sit right Do it for my folk, get by I through the struggle with my head high You being broke you know what it feel like Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich Being broke made me rich, 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 times made for a good Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich Being broke made me rich, being broke made me
Money may have made me richer, but the struggle made me richer than I ever 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 they 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 how I'ma get it, man I was bought before I had a dollar, being empty 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 struggle with my high You being think you know what it feel like Being broke made me rich, being broke made me Being broke made me rich, being broke made me
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 for a good life Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich Being broke made me rich, broke made me rich
