lyrics

I don't wana be a slave to the wage, they push you down, shove you around in this rat race.
I don't wana say the same thing today, i feel o.k, like suffocation on a good day.
I don't wana be around when you pick it, settle down, you got your own one way ticket.
Long as you got money filling up your back pocket, feeling fine, strapped to the daily grime.

You wana be in a postion of power, take a tip from the top, lay em off on the hour, you got to...
move on up, move on up. It takes a stiff upper lip, not to break down. Fake loyalty just don't cut it, your life don't mean nothing.
Long as you got money filling up your back pocket, feeling fine, strapped to the daily grime.

I don't wana be a slave to the wage,
they push you down, shove around in this rat race, and.
If this is life, then i don't wana, be apart so.
Take me out, string me up and shoot me down.

You want money, you think money makes the world go round, but it aint money.
