Only Money

[Verse 1] My momma called me and said "Son, it's Nonne I'm sorry to tell you your grandmama passed" Took me back to the moment watchin' The Sound of Music In your living room before you read me to bed [Pre-Chorus 1] I know now, but I didn't then These were moments building a man None of us had much and you showed me what that means [Chorus] It was only money Cost me some family, cost me some friends It was only money Doesn't define me, I can't pretend Taught me 'bout resentment, about forgivenеss No matter what path lies ahead Taught mе 'bout judgement, about what love is That family's family 'til the end It was only money [Verse 2] A few days before that I got a message From my aunt that said you weren't doin' too well We scrambled to call you to show off the baby My wife and I had just brought into the world [Pre-Chorus 2] I got chills as we said goodbye Somehow I knew it was the last time I'm usually gone for work But nothing's worth missin' memories [Chorus] It was only money Cost me some family, cost me some friends It was only money Doesn't define me, I can't pretend Taught me 'bout resentment, about forgiveness No matter what path lies ahead Taught me 'bout judgement, about what love is That family's family 'til the end It was only money (Money, money) It was only money, money, money, money [Verse 3] If you can hear me I'll always picture you at the piano singin' your songs Just know there's so many lessons you left me I'll always carry along [Chorus] It was only money Cost me some family, cost me some friends It was only money Doesn't define me, I can't pretend Taught me 'bout resentment, about forgiveness No matter what path lies ahead Taught me 'bout judgement, about what love is That family's family 'til the end It was only money (Money, money, money) It was only money, money, money, money It was only money, money, money, money It was only money, money, money, money It was only money
