Short Money - Skyzoo

Short money looked so tall when we stood up near it

Told us that we could see it louder, had to look to hear it

Looking further from what we heard of made it more apparent

Apparently hearing these was looking in mirrors

Tall when we stood up next to it, stood tall if there was ever room for

questioning

Knowing all of your rep in it, height became a precedent

Tall like extended’s on the end of what they bring when they grip and get to

collecting it

Money had us adept to it

Power shotgun in the ride with the respect and so we got to L.O.X'ing it

Track 5 connecting it

And know that if I’m dealing with 5 it’s 4−5 in the sky, Mitchell & Ness’ing it

Grey uniform, Nike checking it

Childhood pictures had us pissing on hydrants, G-Depping it

Nickel and diming seems effortless

Til the crown heavy cuz the nickel and diming breed replicas

Saw it off the arm while eyeing the divas jumping outta cars

With lines of fiends plucking on their arms

Bitches brushing em away while they dying to see what’s jumping with the bomb

And 550's was dumping outta jars

I mean, who would’ve knew you could fit a car in a flour jar

Or you can fill it wit half and get your Audi on

Short money looked so long like car payments

But short money turn those off like court cases

Casing a dream like it was yours and we was taxing it

The lane get too cluttered with dreams you start trafficking

The dichotomy of starting at the back of it

I’m a Jay-Z Kweli accident

Hybrid of the park bench and park slope

But the thought of living in park slope was all jokes

«peace God», peace God, now the shit is explained

It makes sense like a lick for a brick and some change

Short money what they taught us when they put us here

Said it take so long to count it that we wouldn’t care

Short money what they taught us when they put us here

Said it take so long to count it that we wouldn’t care

Short money what they taught us when they put us here

Said it take so long to count it that we wouldn’t care

Short money what they taught us when they put us here

Said it take so long to count it that we wouldn’t care
