Being broke in this don't sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came through the struggle with my head You being broke you know what it feel like Being broke made me rich, being made me rich Being broke made me rich, 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 times made for a good life Being broke made me rich, being broke made me broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Never fell in love 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 with the bread that I'm blow But I do what it feel like to go to school with the knock off shoes Eating free lunch, tryna act all cool, boy you better that we paid our dues Never would I trade that, nah, 'cause it made me better, it have made me bitter You can't ride with the struggle, can't no figure, but it made me richer Being made me rich, and being low made you quit But being low made me high, take time if you get it
Being broke in this don't sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came through the struggle my head high You being broke think you know what it like Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich

Money may have me richer, but the struggle made me richer than I ever been the hustle, use ya' muscles, learn to keep ya' mind up on the future, man Came out the trenches, government assistance in the Keeping cans for the pennies, we saving grease after dinner Now they all my pennies, counting all my figures, all up in my business, man Now they watching 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 handed me stupid rich Rich in loyalty, made in royalty, but it's so good, why I mention it
Being broke in thing don't sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came through the struggle with my head You being broke think you know it feel like Being broke made me rich, being broke me rich Being broke made me rich, being broke made me
Gotta keep the 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 made me rich, being broke made me rich Being broke me rich, being broke made me rich
