[Verse 1: Rakim]
Yo, I can see the main problem, G
The minority remains in poverty
Robberies for commodities
And the majority prays, the same camaraderie
In one hand, it's a pot of gold
In the other hand, it makes cancer seem like the common cold
The common goal is it curses you and leaves you with wicked ways
Kill a whole neighborhood off, quick as AIDS
One touch'll feel better than drugs
You're hooked now, it's never enough
Some say it feels better than love
Every sentence, protocol
Number one cause overall
Make them go to war quick for them, broads strip for them
Shooters fours blow for 'em, street corners pitch for 'em
Poor folk want 'em so the rich flaunt 'em
Novus Ordo Seclorum
E Pluribus Unum
[Hook: Rakim]
Tell me what's wrong
Talkin' 'bout M-O-N-E-Y
What's wrong
People will steal or lie, to get paid
Tell me what's wrong
Talkin' 'bout M-O-N-E-Y
What's wrong
People will kill or die, to get paid
Yo, I can see the main problem, G
The minority remains in poverty
Robberies for commodities
And the majority prays, the same camaraderie
In one hand, it's a pot of gold
In the other hand, it makes cancer seem like the common cold
The common goal is it curses you and leaves you with wicked ways
Kill a whole neighborhood off, quick as AIDS
One touch'll feel better than drugs
You're hooked now, it's never enough
Some say it feels better than love
Every sentence, protocol

Make them go to war quick for them, broads strip for them
Shooters fours blow for 'em, street corners pitch for 'em
