Don't Let The Money Make You - Xzibit

Intro: [An interview with Xzibit]
[I] I want to ask you, what is more important to you guys?
   All the money that you guys are talkin' about?      
   Or the artform? Or, what is more important? The Lyrics?
   Or the leather sized stuff?
[X] I think, what we tryin' to do is device a way that the 
   artform and the money is like on a equal level. 
   You know what I mean, that, that like he said, is a fine
   line where gotta pleas the crowd or pleas the artists 
   that are listenin' to you. And pleas the real hip-hop
   underground people that, that, that is looking for that
   you know, that real shit. It's only a certain way that
   that you can go up and doin' it

Verse 1: [Xzibit]
Xzibit keep it on deck
Live, vinyl, CD or cassette
Whatever you select
I keep you bouncin' like a bad cheque
See I should have a trigger tattooed on my neck
To represent the heat that I repeat
Now you can take the highs out of the beat
But never take the rucked out of the rhyme
Or tribalize, look into the eyes of the emotional
Your whole style is promotional
A dead giveaway to me is just another business day
Xzibit here to stay
My life, a tribute to the A.K, 
you wanna play
A situation only one man can walk away from
The same way he came
When I spit flame, it spits flames like your middlename
So why do I say fuck the fame
Because it come and go
The industry's a pet without refused to be that gigolo
I put the dope in, got fo's and tatoos
Niggas make ya money
But let the money make you

Hook: [King T] x2
We make, make money, money
Take's money to survive
The meanin' of life with statted chips is stay alive
Cause it's all about the C-notes
Gonna be fuckin' when you're rollin' this too
Don't let the money make you

Verse 2: [Soopafly]
It's Soopafly, 
comin' with that gangsta shit
That shi
