Principles Fabolous & Jadakiss

[Intro: Range]
Never 'bout the money, ahhhh

[Chorus: Range]
The shorty get shot in the streets
'Cause he ain't pay his fees
It's never 'bout the money (never 'bout the money)
It's never 'bout the money (ohh, ohhhh)
There's principles involved
These rules apply to all (all)
It's never 'bout the money
It's never 'bout the money

[Verse 1: Fabolous]
Damn, why they do him like that? (Huh?)
They ain't even had to do him like that (huh?)
Fuck it, he should've had the llami on him (facts)
Actin' Holly, had to go Tommy on him (woo!)
You do dirt, you get dirt, that's how germs spread (word)
Squash the beef with a funeral, it's confirmed dead (word)
See, it's never 'bout the money 'cause I burn bread
It's the principalities, like Big Worm said (hold up)
Back to the wall, your man was on the Wizards (yeah)
I weathered the storm while standin' in a blizzard (yeah)
Handlin' your bid'ness almost landed me in prison
So I had to cut you off, but you handed me the scissors (damn!)
See after I lost you, I must've found me
Niggas wasn't with me, they was just around me
Gotta know the rules in the streets you play in
(What happened?) I don't even know but the streets is sayin'
