Preset - Midas Lyrics

Only seventeen
With a deprivation of Dreams
Flipping and moving bricks
Smoking and selling weed
Hands are made of gold
Whenever money is on the scene
Know them all by name
Because my memory is keen
When they feeling depressed
I start feeling like a king
Kingpin, I got the medicine that they need
To help them meditate
Create reality from dreams
I'm Pablo with the drugs
But I'm Magnum with the cream
And if they try to steal
Then they gon have to eat the steel
Cause ima get my Quarter-Back
If you try to run the field
This is my mentality
And all I see are dollar bills
Money signs they rot my mind
I feel like I am someone else
Held my first gun around the age of five
And I started moving packs around the age of nine
Independent worker, I had no nine to five
But I was grinding for my life
B I would work from nine to nine
Never had a dad so I resorted to the gangs
Then I met the homie Ghost, and he told me I could hang
But if I really wanted to, I would need to change
I would need to pull a strap
And let the bullets bang
Put the chamber to their head
And make somebody beg
Beg for their life
While they stare into my eyes
Even if it hurt my soul
Or left me traumatized
I had to make that body drop
Cause it was either his or mine
They said I had to do it once
But they made me do it twice
A t-shirt stained with blood
Finally made my momma cry
Seventeen years
Never saw her shed a tear
But who I had become
Made her strength just disappear
She forced me into swearing
That I wasn't gonna do it
That I was gonna stop
That I wasn't gon be stupid
I was blinded by the money
I was blinded by the jewelry
I was blinded by the life of someone else
And it consumed me
It left a hole so big
That you could walk and see right through me
And the ones supposed to ride
They just left me here to die
Three bullets in my chest
Now I'm staring at the sky
God, send my mom my love
Since I won't get to say goodbye
Money rules the world
I said money rules the world
Money rules the world
I said money rules the world
Money rules the world
I said money rules the world
Money rules the money rules the
Money rules the world
Only sixteen
And already three abortions
I don't care about no love
I just care about the fortune
I give them what they want
Then I rob them while they sleep
Taking watches off their wrists
Stealing money out their jeans
Make them fall in love
And then they'll treat me like a queen
And so I tell them that I love em
But won't treat them like a king
Cause me I'm just a fiend
Who only cares about the green
My momma used to give it up
To other men to buy her dreams
At least that's what she called it
After blowing all them trees
Like mother like daughter
All her beatings haunt my dreams
I ran away from home
When I was only thirteen
I saw my mother get raped
And then I had to see her bleed
He put a knife through her stomach
And it cut straight through her spleen
I've been haunted since that night
My ears still ringing from her screams
So I resorted to the guys
I resorted to the lies
I would look into their eyes
And make them feel like they were mine
But little did they know
That I was tryna rob them blind
They were tryna look forward
And I always stayed behind
I let go of my soul
And let evil in my mind
Because I had been consumed
By the pain, I held inside
And then I met someone
Who could've truly changed my life
I had finally found love
And now I had to watch him die
Laying by his body
With his blood all over mine
I let the money rot my heart
I let the devil take my sight
I regret all my decisions
Now I'm staring at the sky
God forgive me for my sins
I guess its time I say goodbye
Money rules the world
I said money rules the world
Money rules the world
I said money rules the world
