tunnel rats – real money lyrics

[intro: dert]
yeah, everybody talkin’ bout how they get money
we talkin’ bout real money, loan money (diesel?)
career money, macho, new breed

[verse 1: dert]
the age of innocence is over
ever since my people signed that contract it’s like we gotta look over our shoulder
deep behind enemy lines just like vietnam
tunnel rats underground plantin’ the bomb
infiltrate the system, shake hands with your enemy
play chess with the devil, win or lose keep a smile
cause the minute you show emotion, you’re dead in the water
sink or swim, there’s no rescue helicopter
whatever life support they give you, it’s recoupable
(basically man!) before you get paid, they get paid
they get change, you get burned
they live plus, you live lessons learned
just wait your turn, remain taciturn
my trump card is beats that thump hard
we step on the stones you throw in our backyard
to gain a higher perspective with one objective
to hold power, get love and be respected

[hook: macho & dert]
you wanna spin your wheels or you want a career, for real?
live your dreams or continue to live for sleep
enslaved by the ignorance that controls you
the underground will love you but not support you
the only way that you can change things is from the inside
rearrange things, it’s time to own things
control things, build things with real money
not cash advance, rent money

[verse 2: dert]
i play this game hard, throw elbows, style flavoring
byp-ssed the draft, entered as a free agent
stay patient, don’t believe politician statements
rally troops gr-ssroots, overthrow the nation
it’s sad that i don’t know one happy artist
ran through the machine and spit out, disregarded
the gospel industry’s ten times worse
cause labels can’t support your craft first
i’m not tryin’ to be broke and wear rag shirts
i just wanna live and get paid when i work (that’s real money!)
the only way to make payroll is to own it
record sales, retail publishing, share none of it
that’s the goal for independents like us
and when we come up, we build the next generation up
that’s real money, hundred million in my will money
ride twenty inch but dent the bus when i feel money

[interlude: macho]
ladies and gentlemen…
we took a couple of grand—
blueprint and a plan
manifested to the product y’all holding

[verse 3: macho]
i thought about it, thought long and hard
took my own advice and chose to follow the lord
see, i knew the path, i calculated the math
the result is i’m one of the illest on [?] squad
and that’s undeniable even to the hater
go ahead and surf the net, you won’t find a family greater
we stay in house, we are self-sufficient
forcing the industry to bow down in submission
we didn’t ask permission, we just took the position
regardless of opinion about hip-hop and christians
i expand the land cause that’s my birthright
y’all tryin’ to make a million but first get the verse right
see i’m honing my sk!lls and rappin’ administration
can’t wait for the day that youth watch hits the nation
so who can stop me as long as i ain’t too c-cky?
dax handle your business, we’ll run it, me dert and raphi

[outro: dert]
you know, it’s the only thing
get your money right, just remember where it came from
don’t forget to give back
it’s all good
