Sonnie Carson Time Is Money Lyrics
Time is Money by Sonnie Carson
(Intro: Wall Street)
The one thing I learned in jail is that
Money is not the prime asset in life. Time is.
And now your time is just about up
(Verse)
It's about that time, the wait is finally over
The number one close on the door, Sonnie Carson
Praise me, hallelujah, I just wanna shine
But this ain't the kind of story you got tellin' to yo jeweler
First name Sonnie, last name Carson, fuck it,
Time is money, so I bought a straight Muller
Then I pick a Muller, then I fill a fueler
87' off, X to 17, I'm off
I been enlightened by my niggas in the town
I can't shut a mouth, cause I refuse to indite them
One night you might win, but as long as we playn
You gotta keep hatin' it and tie it with a slight plan
And on the scale of one to ten, shit, I'm like ten
Time is money, so I went and bough a Prikeler
And I find myself not sleepin' er'night
Fuck it though, I think I dream betta in the light
You should know what this is, let us toast to gettin' rich
Yeah, life's a bitch, but I'mma show her a dick
Tainted by the money, faded by the champagne
It's hard to hide it when yo closes this big
OGs know best, told me to turn it down
Told 'em time is money, turned around and bought a Rolex
Now I got 52 weeks on my left arm
Dope boy, dope bars, neva been stepped at
Best up, dressed up, fresher than a soap bar
I ain't neva seen a nigga cleaner than me so far
Go hard, I work so hard to stay suffer free
You can come join this orgy, couldn't fuck with me
I got my heart on the sleeve of the shirt I hardly wear
Time is money, so I went and bought an entire year
I'm only gon' tell you what I'm feelin'
I'm shufflin' cards if I ain't gonna deal 'em
Time is money, though, and money come, money goes
So I got luxury watches staked to the ceiling
I ain't the one to fool with, besides that, I don't wear cheap watches
Cause I ain't got time for the bullshit
The one thing I learned in jail is that
Money is not the prime asset in life. Time is.
And now your time is just about up
(Verse)
It's about that time, the wait is finally over
The number one close on the door, Sonnie Carson
Praise me, hallelujah, I just wanna shine
