[Part 1: Teesy]
1000, 2000, 3000, 4
I'm stacking my cash in a room without a door
5000, 6000, 7000, 8
Fame, money and power are mine, and mine alone
I know what it means to be suffering
When I was still a child, they said: "Boy, look, you've got to pick one"
Man, it's not worth fighting over every pesky thing
But what's mine's mine and has to remain that way
I don't give a damn about Africa or what's going on in Afghanistan
Why should I care if they've got something to eat?
Don't eye my car that way, man, you wonder why I'm happy?
I'm-a tell you: I just take as much as I can carry
If you don't need it, entrust it to me
It's not in my nature to think in complex ways
I'm full as can be, bro, of course there's still food left
But I rather throw it away than give it to you, ey boy
If it's on my way, I might give you a ride home
What, my place? Let's go to yours, my heating's switched off
No employees, man, I am the company
"This is the best company in the world!"
[Hook: Teesy]
Listen well when I tell you, boy, remember
The world is full of beggars and gangsters
I take what's mine
Yeah, I do anything to do well
Until I draw blood, fuck you
[Bridge: Teesy]
Man, I got nothing to give
And if you ask me for money, you're crossing lines
Don't even dare think about my property
I'm counting millions (1, 2, 3)
[Part 2: Disarstar]
There's more money on this planet than there are things to buy
Most of it stashed away on the accounts of the upper echelon
Maybe your plans worked out - having a ball and a house by the beach
But consider this: Other people are out of food and are starving, man
The train leaves an empty space (?)
The bigger yours is, the smaller is everybody else's share
If everyone just takes what he needs, or just a little more
Then there would be enough for everybody, that's logical, sure
Anything else isn't fair
If it weren't for some wankers, some rich kids like him
Who think it's all about the Benjamins and everyone else has no value
If compassion were key, we'd be in a whole lot less trouble
From South Africa to the Mediterranean (yup, that's an inconvenient subject)
You could call it egalitarian if it weren't right
If it weren't important
And if a jerk like you can't feel compassion, you're hollow inside, that's a fact
[Hook: Teesy]
Listen well when I tell you, boy, remember
The world is full of beggars and gangsters
I take what's mine
Yeah, I do anything to do well
Until I draw blood, fuck you
[Bridge: Teesy]
Man, I got nothing to give
And if you ask me for money, you're crossing lines
Don't even dare think about my property
I'm counting millions (1, 2, 3)
[Part 3: Teesy & Disarstar]
[T]:
Man, and I gotta deal with people like you
All you can do is ask for a favour
Got no food but a dog
Get the fuck outta here and don't leave your bag of bottles
And come back when you've gotten yourself cleaned
[D]:
Ey, what the hell is your fucking problem?
What do you know about the life I live?
Do what you do best: go count your notes
Expensive car - that's nice, but what do you know about solidarity?
What do you know about compassion? What do you know about being thankful?
You can't buy those, man!
[T]:
No, but a house by the beach
And unlike your plans, mine have worked
Your very existence seems to be due to divine intervention
But what have you got? Except the holes in your socks?
Go ahead, tell me, what have you got, you fool?
[D]:
I've got character
And my values have been untouchable so far
While you're flaunting your money and give a fuck about the world
I'm there for my neighbor, yet you're the one who ends up being called a hero
And traveling around the world - on other people's money
[T]:
Ha ha, great, give him a hand, man, hand this guy a camera
What do I care about the others?
[D]:
Yeah, exactly, what do you care about the others?
[Hook: Teesy]
Listen well when I tell you, boy, remember
The world is full of beggars and gangsters
I take what's mine
Yeah, I do anything to do well
Until I draw blood, fuck you
[Bridge: Teesy]
Man, I got nothing to give
And if you ask me for money, you're crossing lines
Don't even dare think about my property
I'm counting millions (1, 2, 3)
