 FI guess I bit off Cmore than I could cAmhew
And nobody Gtold me, nobody Emtold me   F  
Had it aCll and never kAmnew
Cuz nobody tGold me
FNobody told me moCney don't make you rich
AmAnd if it did, I'm miGssing something
FNobody told me you can Close when you win
And iAmf they did, IG'd still be missing
 FWho knew that this much success will make it Cso hard
But that's to accept the fact Athat I can't go bAmack where I left
And bacGk track my steps, back track my steps
The Frecords I dropped, so massive, so large
It makes it hCard for hip-hop to digest
The Fthings that I do, I guess iAmf it's true
WelGl fuck it, a nigga too good to be the best
Too Fgood to be the best, too good to be stressed
CCuz this the type of life, too good to regret
AmYou know money don't buy you no respect
Nigga no respect, nigga Gno respect yFea
So what the hell is that?
I'm Ctryna recreate the past that I never had
And Amsmash girls I could never smash 
GAnd live fantasies that'll never last
 FI guess I bit off Cmore than I could cAmhew
And nobody told Gme, nobody tolFd me   
Had it aCll and never kAmnew
Cuz nobody tGold me
FNobody told me moCney don't make you rich
AmAnd if it did, I'm miGssing something
FNobody told me you can Close when you win
And iAmf they did, IG'd still be missing
FI ran away from home just to try to make a million
CYea, just to try to make a million
And Amwhen you get a million it's a different type of feeling
GWhen you look around and what you really need is missing
FIt's like, it's like I'm suffering from a sickness
CAnd can't find a doctor to fill out the prescriptionAm  
GOr diagnose the illness
Can't leave it in the book, can't buy from the dealerF  
And I find that ironicC  
Yeah, I find that ironic
How AmI can buy anything that AI ever wanted
But I really had iGt all when I ain't have nothing
FThey always say that mo money, mo problems
CI guess I, I guess I should've listened to the warning
AmI guess I, I guess I should anticipate the stormy weaGther
I guess I'd illustrate it if it's good but hFowever
Well if it's clever
CI couldn't find the words to say it better
I'm Amknee-deep within these endeavors
But all that gGlitters with gold is not treasure
I'm ready for wFhatever, I never let er
I Cwork even better when I'm under pressure
They say Ammoney don't make you rich
Cuz you can't buy Gshit that can make you better, word
FNobody told me moCney don't make you rich
AmAnd if it did, I'm miGssing something
FNobody told me you can Close when you win
And iAmf they did, IG'd still be mCissing
 FI guess I bit off Cmore than I could cAmhew
And nobody told Gme, nobody tolFd me   
Had it aCll and never kAmnew
Cuz nobody tGold me

F C

Who knew that this much success will make it so hard

A Am

But that's to accept the fact that I can't go back where I left

And back track my steps, back track my steps

The records I dropped, so massive, so large

It makes it hard for hip-hop to digest

F Am

The things that I do, I guess if it's true

Well fuck it, a nigga too good to be the best

Too good to be the best, too good to be stressed

Cuz this the type of life, too good to regret

You know money don't buy you no respect

G F

Nigga no respect, nigga no respect yea

So what the hell is that?

And smash girls I could never smash

I ran away from home just to try to make a million

Yea, just to try to make a million

And when you get a million it's a different type of feeling

When you look around and what you really need is missing

It's like, it's like I'm suffering from a sickness

C Am

And can't find a doctor to fill out the prescription

Or diagnose the illness

Can't leave it in the book, can't buy from the dealer

And I find that ironic

Yeah, I find that ironic

How I can buy anything that I ever wanted

But I really had it all when I ain't have nothing

They always say that mo money, mo problems

I guess I, I guess I should've listened to the warning

Am G

I guess I, I guess I should anticipate the stormy weather

I guess I'd illustrate it if it's good but however

Well if it's clever

I couldn't find the words to say it better

I'm knee-deep within these endeavors

But all that glitters with gold is not treasure

I'm ready for whatever, I never let er

I work even better when I'm under pressure

They say money don't make you rich

Cuz you can't buy shit that can make you better, word

F C

Nobody told me money don't make you rich

Am G

And if it did, I'm missing something
