Lyrics
Verse 1
Counting crisp blue notes
Locked inside a windowless room
Thumb flipping through the heavy rubber bands
Twenty thousand stuffed inside a shoebox under the bed
Calculating interest while the neighbors sleep
My focus never fades
I trade the hours for the dividends
Building high a mountain made of dead presidents
Pre-Chorus
Money talks
Wealth grows
Empire rise
Stack it to the ceiling
Chorus
Level up the layers of the bankroll
Keep stacking till the paper hits the roof
Strips of green taller than a man
Watching every single digit climb
Money growing till it blocks the sun
Legacy carved out of currency
Climbing up a ladder of wealth
Towers of the cash won't ever lean
Verse 2
Portfolio thick and full of stock
Piling profit from the basement to the rafters
Business deals done in a silk gray suit
Every single nickel accounted for in the ledgers
Calculated risks bringing back a double return
Signed the contract with a fountain pen
Victory tastes like a vintage cabernet
Buying back the block because the hustle won't stop
Pre-Chorus
Money talks
Wealth grows
Empire rise
Stack it to the ceiling
Chorus
Level up the layers of the bankroll
Keep stacking till the paper hits the roof
Strips of green taller than a man
Watching every single digit climb
Money growing till it blocks the sun
Legacy carved out of currency
Climbing up a ladder of wealth
Towers of the cash won't ever lean
Bridge
Upward mobility
Vertical growth
Vertical gains
Rising higher and higher
I don't look down
Just add another row
Chorus
Level up the layers of the bankroll
Keep stacking till the paper hits the roof
Strips of green taller than a man
Watching every single digit climb
Money growing till it blocks the sun
Legacy carved out of currency
Climbing up a ladder of wealth
Towers of the cash won't ever lean
