## Lyrics
[verse]
Grew up in a building where the halls stayed cold
Watched the older heads chase dreams of turning gold
Every day's a hustle when you're trying to survive
Learned to count the struggle just to stay alive

[chorus]
Cash rules everything around, that's how it goes
Everybody chasing dollars, everybody knows
Cash rules everything around, but I hold on
To the love that got me through before the money's gone

[verse]
Momma worked the double shifts to keep the lights on bright
Taught me every dollar earned was worth the fight
Now I chase my own path, chase my own design
Building something lasting, one step at a time

[chorus]
Cash rules everything around, that's how it goes
Everybody chasing dollars, everybody knows
Cash rules everything around, but I hold on
To the love that got me through before the money's gone

[bridge]
Jazzy sample smooth beneath the steady drum
Every struggle taught me where I'm coming from
Money comes and money goes, that much I know
But the lessons that it taught me, those will always grow

[chorus]
Cash rules everything around, that's how it goes
Everybody chasing dollars, everybody knows
Cash rules everything around, but I hold on
To the love that got me through before the money's gone
