But if you just stayed home to set your own pace.



You know you got it in you, all the hooks and the skills.

They promise you money but you don't see any bills.



Running and doing what you think is real.

Others need you more than you need them.



But you want it so bad, all the money and all.

They said you be famous, now your taking the fall.



Pumping the most bullshit you've ever heard.

This is what you say if you wanna be a player.

That's how you work it you wanna be a player.



They're calling you up, you got the hot demo.

What's the next step, make a new one tomorrow?



They had everything planned and told you what to do.

Your show was a hit I hope because of you.



You're daddy's little girl and a gold digger.

You never saw the world, so you figure.



Poor kid, poor kid, how low can you go?

To be a rich kid, rich kid.

To go for the gold.



Poor kid, poor kid, how low can you go?

To be a rich kid, rich kid.

To go for the gold.

Poor…

You…



You complain that it bothers you, and like it at the same time.

Success is over night for you, now they got the best of you.



Consider this love has no price.

I vow to hip-hop so who's throwing the rice.



So far I've learned never to contradict your thought said.

You're caught up trouble, I heard your charges being read.



All your friends are in trouble and don't know what to do.

'Cause you know everything will come back to you.



What could you say 'cause you're going to jail?

Thought you were a bad ass now you're rejected from bail.



Jump on the bandwagon, take a number.

As long as babies are born, there will be another sucker.



You not so honest anymore and you lie.

You like a puppet even more baking someone else's favorite pie.



I'll give you some money, girl, and buy you a diamond ring.

With no effort at all, now you owe me everything.



Poor kid, poor kid, how low can you go?

To be a rich kid, rich kid.

To go for the gold.



Poor kid, poor kid, how low can you go?

To be a rich kid, rich kid.

To go for the gold.

Poor…

You…



Ended up in New York City, panhandling for cash.

Got arrested last night for possession of hash.



Never underestimate the powers that be.

They can make and break you, but you can't see.



Seems to me that your luck has run out.

You got knocked up side your head day in and day out.



You wanna be a leader but you got no crew.

Those in your crew will kill you too.



I remember you were seen getting drunk at local bars.

I don't think you gonna get far stealing all those bicycles.



If they wanted to help it wouldn't be so slow.

It's only you and your soul.

Think of that before you put yourself low.



If they show you the green then you know what they mean.

Relax step back let the world catch up to me.



So what do you say about your immaturity?

Never thought about your actions, now you're crying to me.



Poor kid, poor kid, how low can you go?

To be a rich kid, rich kid.

To go for the gold.



Poor kid, poor kid, how low can you go?

To be a rich kid, rich kid.

To go for the gold.

Poor…

You…



Poor kid, poor kid, how low can you go?

To be a rich kid, rich kid.

To go for the gold.



Poor kid, poor kid, how low can you go?

To be a rich kid, rich kid.

To go for the gold.

Poor…

You…
