Jordan W. Carter - Scared Money (feat. ArizonaMarty)

This 2021 we prioritizing routines so when it's time to get to it
It's automatic

Winter summer spring and fall believe I'm at best
Cause I never get involved with settling for less
Gotta go and get that paper every day to day
Scared money don't make nothing so I ain't afraid
I don't know much about y'all but I know about myself
And my people need it all so I'm workin' on our wealth
Gotta go and get that paper just to make a way
Scared money don't make nothing so I ain't afraid

We on the up and up staircase
And still lookin' good bareface
These niggas my sons caretake
Boy fuck whatcha' gone tell me
It's a summery vibe LA
You can catch us outside tailgate
Or either online AirPlay
Now if we tried their way
BIG TABLE wouldn't be on the airwaves
We wouldn't have the drive fairway I'm
To go maximize jailbreak
Potential to inspire world change
And not just after a hurricane
We all be up on this every day
No lies cappin' or hearsay
You see I get up out my bed and thank the Lord
and get to flexin'
Walkin' down the avenue hello to the pedestrians
Come and pull up on me see what's good in my direction
Everyday I stack it on my block I'm playin' Tetris
They all know me I'm shining with no gold teeth
I guarantee ya' gone see me get up on my own feet
To make it happen for myself and never tell my friends I need a loan
All from writing on my phone and rappin' in the microphone

Winter summer spring and fall believe I'm at best
Cause I never get involved with settling for less
Gotta go and get that paper every day to day
Scared money don't make nothing so I ain't afraid
I don't know much about y'all but I know about myself
And my people need it all so I'm workin' on our wealth
Gotta go and get that paper just to make a way
Scared money don't make nothing so I ain't afraid

Greenwood Avenue it's a wonderful day
Tulsa Oklahoma, is where I stay
Thriving business, black dollar made
What type of bullshit is y'all come from slaves?
Boy my daddy a banker and my momma a teacher
She getting paid by the school and Sundays by the preacher
We got a loan from Mr. Gurley and we built us home
We paid him back in 12 months and hired more of our own
Jim Crow you a hoe ween worried bout shit
That Red Summer wasn't talkin' bout' shit
You see we bounced back quick
My daddy told me if the Klan come bust in his crib
Clap clap cut his lights out like nobody's there
Y'all can threaten lives and stand outside with pitchforks and bricks
And fantasize on how to organize all that we've built
Truth be told,
To get rid
Gotta burn this bitch
Greenwood District been rich

Winter summer spring and fall believe I'm at best
Cause I never get involved with settling for less
Gotta go and get that paper every day to day
Scared money don't make nothing so I ain't afraid
I don't know much about y'all but I know about myself
And my people need it all so I'm workin' on our wealth
Gotta go and get that paper just to make a way
Scared money don't make nothing so I ain't afraid get it
