Never fell in love the Coco, Never had to hold up a store with the .44 Never had the door in by the feds, Laying in the bed with the bread that I'm gon' blow But I do know what it feel to go to school with the knock off shoes Eating free lunch, tryna act all cool, boy you better know we paid our dues Never would I trade that, nah, 'cause it made me better, it could made me bitter You ride with the struggle, can't name no figure, but it made me richer broke made me rich, and being low made you quit But being low made me high, time if you wanna get it

Gotta keep the stove hot so it cook right, if everybody eating 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
Money may have made me richer, but the struggle made me than I ever been Learn the hustle, use ya' muscles, learn to keep ya' up on the future, man Came out the trenches, government assistance in the Keeping cans for the pennies, we that grease after dinner Now counting all my pennies, counting all my figures, all up in my business, man Now watching what I'm spending, wonderin' what I got, and wonder 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 broke in this thing sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came through the with my head high You being broke think you know what it like Being broke made me rich, being made me rich Being broke made me rich, being broke made me
Gotta keep the stove hot so it cook right, if everybody eating 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
