[Producer(s): Ahurumazda (of The Deity Complex) {Original Instrumental from The Deity Complex - “Fractal Harmonics (My Frequency)”}]

[Verse 1: N8! (AKA !LLumiN@TE)]
It’s the mystery of inequity
My country tis of thee, sweet land of misery
Enemies of the statesmen, Troy Aikmans
Build or Destroy Number 8 ‘til your number’s taken
On your mark for another racist, something
Dark is afoot.  They built a bridge over troubled waters
Sharks, freemason jar heads where partners were crooks
Crossing Delawarewolves eating bear claws
And separated deer hooves. Black Mirror, that’s how
Fear looks. Shaken, not stirred, y’all appear shook
Let’s have a Tea Party for the John Wilkes
And Lee Harveys, Oswald Cobblepot, Harvey Dent
Isn’t hard to spot. Two-Faces for the
Price of one. The face on a dollar bill feels
Priceless once the fight is done—did you fight or run?

[Hook: ManKind]
[N8! (AKA !LLumiN@TE)]
I don’t know how to feel, y’all. I know
People that’ll kill for them dollar, dollar bills, y’all
Shit, I just gotta will, y’all, and take care
Of my little girl, I need dollar, dollar bills, y’all
I’m saying I got bills, y’all. I be
Working in the field for them dollar, dollar bills, y’all
I wonder if this life is still yours if you spend
All of your time chasing dollar, dollar bills, y’all
Dollar, dollar bills, y’all. Yeah
[SciryL]
Cash Rules Everything Around Me—C.R.E.A.M. Get the money
Dollar, dollar bills, y’all

[Verse 2: SciryL]
‘Til the last day like we stressed. What you worry about?
Nikes or checks? What you worry about? Spike Lee
Or writing the checks? What you worry about? Hot tea
Or minding your biz? Concentrated on other niggas’
Losses or finding your wins before the time that it ends?
Huh? Hmm! Nowadays, you’re either
Selling wolf tickets or you’re buying a bridge, you either
Troll or your mind in a mist, not trying or you
Grind in this bitch, getting home tired as shit
Still finding time to keep an eye on your kids
Throwing people off the ladder or you’re climbing this shit, you’re buying
Diamonds or you’re copping a crib. Huh?
You ride science or it’s God as your witness? You got
A biscuit or you’re copping them chickens? Move across the George
Washington Bridge, I’m in Washington Heights
Copping sour that’ll knock out your lights after long days
Of trying to provide. You’re drinking vodka or you’re fine with the white?
You’re drinking lean or you’re popping them Vikes?
What’s your most popular vice? I like stages
I like dropping the mics, I like amazement
And shocking ‘em like I’m not amazing ‘fore I hand ‘em all
The shock of their life. Huh!
