Money Rules

Hmm, yeah yeah

Money dey rule the world oh

I remember when we dey together

No money, but the love dey pepper

Now the money don come, everything don scatter

The same people wey dey love me, now dem dey gather

Fake smiles for my face, dem wan chop my cake

Family and friends, na the money dem chase

I dey look mirror, I no fit recognize my face

Wetin I gain if I lose myself for this race?

Money rules, money rules

Everybody wan collect, nobody wan give

Money rules, money rules

The love don die, na just the paper we dey live

Money rules, money rules

I get am now but my heart dey bleed

Money rules, money rules

Na wetin I want, but e no be wetin I need

Dem say make I no forget where I dey come from

But the same people dey remind me say I don blow

Now I dey lonely for the crowd, nobody fit understand

The price of this success, e heavy for my hand

I wan go back to when life been simple

Before the money come turn my people to strangers

Chale, the truth dey bitter like agbo

Success don build wall where love suppose dey flow

Money rules, money rules

Everybody wan collect, nobody wan give

Money rules, money rules

The love don die, na just the paper we dey live

Money rules, money rules

I get am now but my heart dey bleed

Money rules, money rules

Na wetin I want, but e no be wetin I need

Money rules

But at what cost?

Yeah, money rules
