vanny goodfella - if it doesn't make dollaz then it doesn't make cent'z lyrics
[intro]
yeah… vanny goodfella, the hustler — the throwback king back in full effect
phone ringin’, deals on the line, watch me choose what’s worth the check
[verse 1]
wake up, sunlight cuttin’ through the blinds
notebook full of schemin’, million+dollar lines
tried the dropship, the dime store, lost a couple nights
crypto ghosted me, the chart took flight and then it died
sent rent on a rumor, now the silence bite cold
confidence on layaway, gotta take back my hold
muscle in my work, hustle in my bonеs
but dreams without the paper lеave me standin’ all alone
[pre+chorus]
i ain’t chasin’ clout, i chase the balance sheet
if it pays my peace, then the plan is complete
[chorus (hook) — sung, anthemic, doubled on the last line]
if it don’t make dolla’z, then it don’t make cent’z
why i’m takin’ calls that don’t add up, that don’t make sense
if it don’t make dolla’z, then it don’t make cent’z
another dead+end hustle, another dollar spent
if it don’t make dolla’z, then it don’t make cent’z
collectors on my line, tone steady, turnin’ intense
if it don’t make dolla’z, then it don’t make cent’z
stack it, lock it, flip it — that’s how i jump the fence
[verse 2 — tighter, punchier imagery, second+person moments for immediacy]
brrrrp — private number, cold breath on my screen
“final notice” talkin’ loud, where the money been?
pay a car note with lint, pray to win what i need
corner moves shrink small when the city’s got me beat
they offer “arrangements” — i arrange bigger plans
i picture hundred stacks and a team that understands
every call’s another chisel on the stone of pride
so i grind in silence, let the profit be my guide
[pre+chorus (short)]
not about greed — it’s survival and design
turn the bright idea into something that signs
[chorus (hook) — full band, call+and+response on last line]
if it don’t make dolla’z, then it don’t make cent’z
why i’m takin’ calls that don’t add up, that don’t make sense
if it don’t make dolla’z, then it don’t make cent’z
another dead+end hustle, another dollar spent
if it don’t make dolla’z, then it don’t make cent’z
collectors on my line, tone steady, turnin’ intense
if it don’t make dolla’z, then it don’t make cent’z
stack it, lock it, flip it — that’s how i jump the fence
[bridge — emotional lift, brief melodic shift, honest and warm]
they preach passion, talk dreams like money ain’t the cost
but passion with an empty plate is only love that’s lost
so i be smart with heart, let the ledger show the art
a masterpiece that pays my bills — now that’s the start
[hook variation — stripped, then boom back in]
if it don’t make dolla’z — whisper
if it don’t make cent’z — layered, evolve into shout
[outro]
let it ring, let ’em leave it on the line
wavie on the new wave, money on my mind
no more wasted hustle, no more borrowed time
if the paper ain’t involved, then it’s not a friend of mine
vanny goodfella — movement on time
if it don’t make dolla’z… then it don’t make… cent’z
