There's a man with a bruise on his hand

And it got there from breaking his back

Sowing seeds on another man's land

Oh damn

There's woman at home

And it hurts to the bone

Rips out her soul why he does it

He don't even know

Oh no

There's a child in the womb and he's already doomed

Ghetto consumes and he probably won't see 22

And that ain't cool

Help me tell me what could ever be heavier than that

Never seeing what we could

Have achieved with the weight of the world on our backs

Money makes the world go round

Build us up to break us down

Can we last another round

Long enough to break that chain

Money makes the world go round

Build us up to break us down

Can we last another 'round

Long enough to break that chain

There's a boy in the core on a strange foreign shore

Fighting a war but don't know what he's fighting it for

No more

There's a fence surrounding the project housing

People are drowning the problems they can't get in

And can't get out

And the jar is filled you can swallow the pill

But you never get better

The money is keeping you ill

And that's for real

Help me tell me what could ever be heavier than that

Never seeing what we could

Have achieved with the weight of the world on our backs

Money makes the world go round

Build us up to break up down

Can we last another round

Long enough to break that chain

Money makes the world go round

Build us up to break us down

Can we last another 'round

Long enough to break that chain

Money makes the world go round

Build us up to break up down

Can we last another round

Long enough to break that chain
