Gimmie - Derek Minor/Chris Mackey/Joseph Prielozny/Derek Johnson
Welcome to Minorville
Where the bigger the better
Or the flashier the greater
My worth's not defined by who I am
Or what I have
I came up from the bottom
Said hello to satan fo' I cracked through the earth's crust
(What all they do)
Post up drink good and smoke blunts
When I was comin' up they was clappin' at y'all
But nowadays them choppers givin' applause
See if the love of money the root of evil
It's no wonder why the culture brainwashing our people
Hey where else would college graduates parade around as d**e boys
And dumb they whole life down oh boy
He got a bad dime piece though
And she gon' bear it all for a video
The networks making tons o' dough
We out here lookin' like CB4
I feel like we musta missed it
Built a whole society around riches
While kids in Africa put water on they wishlist
We buy a couple mo' benzes
All I hear is

Ahhh Yeah
Mo' money mo' cars
Bigger house
Mo' Mo' Yards
Mo' fame mo' applause
But why settle for that
When you can have it all
Flippin' through a hundred channels
It ain't nuthin' on
Then I see this preacher say he praying for my soul
But if I really want the blessings of the Lord to shine
I need to buy this magic oil for $9 99
So if I put this chicken grease on my fo'head
And spin in circles 5 times like you said
You tellin' me tomorrow I'ma have no debt
Even though my credit bad and I ain't got a job yet
I smell a crook here in the castle
And I ain't talkin' fashion
To sell hope to broke folk
Promise 'em all a mansion
They turned God into a genie
And you Aladdin
Makin' a fool out of Church while the world laughin'
See you ain't gotta be a Christian
To notice there's somethin' fishy
When the church is like casinos with slot machines missing
Yo' congregation put food on they wishlist
You out driving round benzes
All I here is

When you can have it all
Buy my new CD when it drop
And let ya' friends know
Wanna book me for a show
Here go my info
I'd be lyin' if I ain't say that sometimes
It's just to get dough
Let's say it's cuz my 'Family Matters "
I can't have my "Winslow "
Our Father
Who art in heaven
Who blessed this flow
I want a stellar but I settle for a grammy though
I want a be a movie star at least gimme a cameo
OVERLOOKIN' ALL THE LORD'S DONE BEFORE
Hey I got everything
My wife a fly dame
Bunch a twitter folllowers'll gas my up like octane
Get love in the south
Lotta artists say
"You hot man "
Plus the Lord SAVED me
It's 'sposed to be bout HIS fame
I know people are losing business to jockey for my position
While I steady look at Heaven
Beggin' for somethin' different
The Father gave me EVERYTHING on my wishlist
And now I'm dreamin' bout benzes
Hands out like
