mc rimmer - materialism lyrics
[verse 1]
materialism is the craftsmanship of a deceiving art
some are smart, but others take part
it’s l-st perpetrated by businesses
gold has might have your name engraved
diamonds picked from modern day slaves
off the rocks of africa
and someone might laugh at ya
because the way you dress
but they walk around thinking gucci’s the best
some call it fashion but here’s the question i’m asking
where does materialism belong in society
well kay jewelry didn’t lied to me
straight down kissing their -ss
think of me as a teacher, and this song as a cl-ss
but we’re still living in the past
trying hard to be a higher caste
but in reality the truth gets watered down
business schemes made by business men, no ordinary circus clowns
[verse 2]
what are you rocking, what do you wear
and in a century no one will care
you can spend millions of money
but look how stupid you look, when’s it’s not so funny
we pay for the name on clothes
putting a name on cotton, increases the cash flow
materialism stars in our dreams
and is brought back alive in business schemes
and it’ll sneak up on your back
when the wackest color is the new black
and you say, you go with the flow
but you don’t know that companies get more dough
your desires, you aim for a style
but you end up paying for a cheap smile
losing cash, spending money wild
until you get want you want like a stuck-up child
[verse 3]
materialism feeds and murders the wallet
and poisons the brain, and steals it like a bandit
it attacks and sneaks by wants and habits
but look at it, and at the end of the day
you might go broke and care to say
what is it really worth?
when you taking the last buck out of your gucci purse
christmas is getting commercialized, materialism is a curse
and when your out to your last buck
you don’t have a chance of luck
to fulfill your urges and materialistic needs
to get those nice jewelry, or gold beads
and you might say there’s nothing wrong
there’s a message in the song
stay wise, stay strong
