Reks, Skyzoo - Money on the Ave lyrics

Nigga, what you need to do
Is say fuck them raps
See the money makin' is on the ave

The money makers' on the ave
And they be gettin' dough
While I was tryna rap
Nigga they was sellin' blow
The fiends was on the ave
And they was needin' coke
Dollar dollar dollar bill
You know how the game go
Growin' up sellin' crack was
A yellow brick road
To the dollar dollar bills
Dollar dollar bills
Meet me on the ave, and we can get the dough
And we can get the dough, and we
Can get the cash, the cash, the cash

Fantasizing on chart climbin'
I ignored the drug lords allure
Adored colorful walls adorned
With graffiti texts
On Didge's steps I damn near slept
Fillin' my notepad with future hit's
Hearin' the city breathe a killer's breath
I wept smudgin' up lines
My tears daily defying stress
'Cause on them same steps for hours
With dealers who quit school to pitch
Powder, get rich, respect, power
Not in that order but
Surely somethin' that's similar
Finish my algebra, kiss mum
Pick my pen back up get lost in thought like
Nasir past the margin
Shook hands with too many ghosts
Now in the coffin
Sad but how it be often, fiends starvin'
Knew too many willin' to feed
'em to Hell's demons
And they say that Hell would all
Be a big dream and
Fuck them raps! wanna get this dough?

The money makers' on the ave
And they be gettin' dough
While I was tryna rap
Nigga they was sellin' blow
The fiends was on the ave
And they was needin' coke
Dollar dollar dollar bill
You know how the game go
Growin' up sellin' crack was
A yellow brick road
To the dollar dollar bills
Dollar dollar bills
Meet me on the ave, and we can get the dough
And we can get the dough, and we
Can get the cash, the cash, the cash

It's gettin' that much clearer every day
They wantin' what you hear but
What you hearin's never played
So you could get a chair
Wait in there till it change
Or you could hit the flair
Hit the air and get your lane
Young'n get your pay
Kickin' sixteens don't do it
I mean it did but this seesaw music
Is so yesterday, so sketched and traced
Honestly, shit is borderline next to gay
Cause when the records stop sellin'
And the stores start closin'
And the landlord waitin' in
The corners wide open
Huh, fuck an option, it's whoever is coppin'
Tryna hold onto a dream but can't lock it
You could play with the bass
Fuck around with the treble
Or you could play with the bass
And turn powder to pebble front if you want
We all see the truth in the clouds
But what am I sayin? I'm standin
In the booth right now, fuck it

The money makers' on the ave
And they be gettin' dough
While I was tryna rap
Nigga they was sellin' blow
The fiends was on the ave
And they was needin' coke
Dollar dollar dollar bill
You know how the game go
Growin' up sellin' crack was
A yellow brick road
To the dollar dollar bills
Dollar dollar bills
Meet me on the ave, and we can get the dough
And we can get the dough, and we
Can get the cash, the cash, the cash

They used to tell me to chill
You ain't gon' pay bills tryin'
To be the next Will
'Fresh Prince' Smith, but if you stretch this
You'll get a quicker meal than
A record deal and still
Keep your ties to the block
You ain't signing to Roc
Diddy ain't gon' pop into your
Hood and change your life
Make shit all good, like shit ain't fucked up
On our streets, so to eat we keep
Them goods in the projects
It's all economics
You disagree? God bless, wish you the best
But, you from Law-town Mass
Who gon' listen to Reks?
They ain't searchin' for American
Idols in black hoodies
And doo rags, it's logic
You should be on the ave
Cause we be getting dough so
Fuck all of them raps
Pick a piece of pavement near
The curb and pitch crack
Yep, it's like that, real recognize real
For the dollar dollar bills

The money makers' on the ave
And they be gettin' dough
While I was tryna rap
Nigga they was sellin' blow
The fiends was on the ave
And they was needin' coke
Dollar dollar dollar bill
You know how the game go
Growin' up sellin' crack was
A yellow brick road
To the dollar dollar bills
Dollar dollar bills
Meet me on the ave, and we can get the dough
And we can get the dough, and we
Can get the cash, the cash, the cash
