Money Blown - John Legend

It's a cautionary tale

All you brothers out there chasing that dough

Watch what you do

You should know it won't save your soul

Don't let it fool you brother

Beware of what you see

You've been consumed by all your visions of luxury

Betrayed your friends and burned the bridges that carry you

But when you need them later they won't be there for you

You're so high now you think you'll never fall

But when you come down who will you call

What you gonna do when your money's blown

Your friends are gone and you're all alone

Now you're barely hanging on with nowhere else to run to

You should know it won't make you whole

You gain the world but lose your soul

Spend your life in the search for dough

You'll find out it just won't save you

No

What you gonna do

No

What you gonna do

No

What you gonna do

No

You think that having money brings joy and peace to you

But the pursuit of it might bring out the beast in you

Chase the American Dream but can't face reality

That what you're chasing only lasts temporarily

You're so high now someday you're gonna fall

But when you come down who will you call

What you gonna do when your money's blown

Your friends are gone and you're all alone

Now you're barely hanging on with nowhere else to run to

You should know it won't make you whole

You gain the world but lose your soul

Lose your soul

Spend your life in the search for dough

You'll find out it just won't save you

No

Chase that cash

No

Get that dough

No

But you need to know

Hey yeah hey yeah

Hey what you gonna do

What you gonna do when your money's blown

Your friends are gone and you're all alone

Now you're barely hanging on with nowhere else to run to

You should know it won't make you whole

You gain the world but lose your soul

Spend your life in the search for dough

You'll find out it just won't save you

What you gonna do

What you gonna do

What you gonna do

What you gonna do

What you gonna do

What you gonna do

What you gonna do

Say what you gonna do when there's nowhere

Nowhere to run to

I think you're gonna find that it just won't

Just won't save you

Oh what you gonna do when there's nowhere

Nowhere to run to

I think you're gonna find that it just won't

Just won't save you

Oh what you gonna do when there's nowhere

Nowhere to run to

I think you're gonna find that it just won't

Just won't save you

Hey hey what you gonna do when there's nowhere

Nowhere to run to

I think you're gonna find that it just won't

Just won't save you

Hey hey hey yeah yeah

Nowhere to run to

Hey oh yeah yeah

Just won't save you

Nowhere to run to

Just won't save you

Nowhere to run to

Just won't save you

Nowhere to run to

Just won't save you
