Aceyalone: Blink Blink

[uncredited spoken word poet forms the song's intro]

With a grin that matched his own she said,

"You're not a thief, are you?"

He shrugged."Do I look like a thief?"

"You look like the most attractive man here."
She paused long enough to catch his eye;

of course looks can be deceiving.

She didn't say it, but she could picture him pocketing

a necklace carelessly left in a jewelry box during a big party.

Or a Seiko watch from under a poolside towel.
She didn't imagine him planning a heist,

but just taking what came his way.

Returning her smile, he said..

[Aceyalone]
Bout that money, yeahhh.. that's what I'm talkin bout
Bout that money, gettin that money

[Chorus]

Blink Blink - every time you open up your eyes
Blink Blink - every time you open up your mind

Blink Blink - yeahhh, yeahhh
What the f**k are people talkin bout?

Blink - every time you open up your eyes

Blink Blink - every time you open your mind
Blink Blink - yeahhh, yeahhh

What the f**k these people talkin bout?

[Aceyalone]

I say it once, I'll say it again

Cold cash money make the whole world spin

You can laugh, and you can grin

But you ain't sayin shit if you ain't got ends

So hold your breath, and wait for God

And when you get here, tell him that you need a job



Because shit is hard, in the battlefield

And the next bid'ness deal can get you killed

[Chorus]

[Aceyalone]

The phone's in my name and it can't be cut off

The water and the power and it can't be shut off

Food, shelter, cheese, I gotta break off, please

I gotta shake off, that's why I gotta take off

I'm young and full of vigor, West coast nigga

Tryin to make my pockets bigger from the shit that I deliver

Stay afloat, sell your boat

Sell what you wrote, f**k it, sell dope

Yeahhh, yeahhh, what the f**k are people talkin bout?

... yeahhh, what the f**k do people think about?

[Chorus] - 3/8X

[Aceyalone]
You should put on a mask, and go in home savings

Witcho' nuts and yo' heart and yo' forty-five waving
Westsiders got West cravings

God damn motherf**kin money is amazing

Yeahhh.. you know money money in everything
... you know money make the world go round

... you know money runnin everythang

... you know money make the world go round

... you know money runnin everythang
... you know money make the world go, round

Blink.. {*echoes*
