M.I. - No Money [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Money

Cause we haven’t got any money

M.i :
This that.. (x4)
Modern day slavery music
Try to get paid music
Gotta get a paycheck when you got late rent, need a little bit of change music
They don’t got us in chains, but they got us in debt from the day we came music
From the very first cent that we a made & they made a choice to keep it separated music
& if you wana be real we need to end the fed
Cause they been f’n up sht since 1913, we ain't seen benefits
& ain't no reason why a guy at Goldman should be making more than my moms
When she been teaching in the public system, man this system is so far gone
& so undone, no one does (nothing) to show us we ain't just customers
Working for this corporate structure just to buy more shit from another
Fuck em, bullshit don’t work anyway, & I don’t got the money to replace
This shit when it breaks in 6 months, im pissed tryna save

Hook
Cause we haven’t got any money
We ain't got no money No, we ain't got no, we ain't got no (x2)

Cause we haven’t got any money
Yeah fuck that money, Na fuck that get money, yeah

Verse 2:
And this (x3)
Minimum wage got my adrenaline caged
Cynical cause I bee living life jaded, since I was little & tryna get paper
I noticed the difference in what I got paid, compared to my niggas & what they was making
Was nothing but fuck it, I played it
This game but im done with this game & im sick of the lane that im racing in
Faced with this racism, now it determines who owns
Who gets a loan, & who’s just a worker getting along
& who the fuck knows if numbers they type are even legitimate prices
I don’t think they even know
I just get told what I owe, got me living life broken in so many ways but I know that I chose it & so..
I’ma deal with what comes with these choices
That’s what happens when you thrown in this system no voice to speak out against this need
For all this greed, shit this nigga makes like 10k more than me a month, don’t try to fuckin tell me nothing

Hook

Verse 3:
As a man I believe I've earned
A small living with the work
That I've put in, living in a world where you get it, if you didn't then you worthless
Devaluing a race with a fucking piece of paper
Na, we don’t wana wait, Yo we just wana live, we don’t need no favors
I don’t wana be homeless again & if I ever have a son, ima do what it takes now to make sure that he won’t ever know the same pain
So, why we limit ourselves? We could be efficient as well
I could be trippin but hell, might be to optimistic
But there’s gotta be something better than this shit
Or this system…
