Cookbook, Uno Mas - When You Rock & Roll lyrics
[Cookbook, Uno Mas - When You Rock & Roll lyrics]
(How much can you get for your soul) it's EV
Evidence, Cookbook, Uno Mas
(when you rock and roll) let's go!
Honeys know that money is the
Thing that they want
And brothers know that money is
The thing that they want
And both'll hit the block and
Try to hustle it up
In the club sellin' they souls
(When you rock and roll)
Brothers'll fight for that (Money Money)
That dough will make the closest
Friendship start to feel funny
Your homie that you run with
Starts to hide certain agendas
Suddenly the great pretenda
Don't even bring it to the world of rap music
When we're broke, it's buddy-buddy
Money comes, you start to lose it
Your group starts with a dream to
Change the scene and change things
Behind the scenes
They fighting 'bout the same things
(When you rock and roll)
You can't survive without that (Money Money)
Record companies give little
But want everything from me
I signed it like a dummy
Now I lost my control
Gave away my soul just so
I could rock and roll
How much can you get for your soul?
W-when you rock and roll
Hit the road, pack my bags, say goodbye
You know heroes get remembered
But legends never die
So I never say never, and never ask why
They pay no tolls, I guess that comes
(when you rock and roll)
Right, doin' shows now there's (money, money)
Last year you was dumb and out
Broke and bummy (crazy)
They used to want advice
Now they tryin to son me
It's funny how the tides change, y' know?
(when you rock and roll)
Cash in pocket, big bank, money fold
Accounts drained
But keep a green gangster' s roll
They keep they thanks and they praise on hold
Things for granted no matter the debt
Never owed (when you rock and roll)
Small change or big (money money) cha- ching!
I'm broke they don' t call
I got loot they love me
I know both sides of the fence
Some days I feel like Mike
Other days Evidence he's rock and roll
How much can you get for your soul?
W-when you rock and roll
Yeah, everyday another day, another rhyme
Flippin' pennies to a dime
Over ten plus years been tryna earn my shine
Make moves, stay ahead of the game
And stack dough
Keep your business on point, yeah
(when you rock and roll)
Everybody want that (money money)
Survival of the fittest and
I'm tryna stay hunger
Keep the work ethic up, nothing's given
Nothing free if you got a lot to lose
Then don't be an emcee
This industry will pimp you out
Like they own the block
If your stock don't rise
Then you might get locked
Doin' time cause you signed
Your career's on hold
Live and learn or get burned c'mon
(when you rock and roll)
Wack emcees making (money money)
You can find me in the lab doin' work
Living grimy nothin' shiny on my neck
But I got mic control
And that's the only thing you need when you
(when you rock and roll)
