Money said,
come see the other side
Money said,
I promise a new life
Money said,
come breathe in the new skies
Just like all the other girls
she knew her future
She could see it in the eyes of her mother
So, when she heard Money say,
come see the other side,
she knew that this
was her one chance to fly
She thought for a moment
“It’s too good to be true,”
but she knew that it needed to be
She wasn’t gonna let poverty
chain up her hands and feet
Money said and Money promised
everything she needed in life
Money said,
come see the other side
Money said,
I promise a new life
Money said,
come breathe in the new skies
And that’s when she stepped over the line
She gave her hand and said good bye
She left singing,
“take me to the other side.”
Little did she know that Money lies
Little did she know that Money is a man
Little did she know…
A weeks ride from home
and she wasn’t sure
where she was anymore,
but she trusted Money
because his lips were made of honey
and golden promises for tomorrow
She made it to the other side,
but there was nothing Money promised
and everything he didn’t
In a dark room,
with chained feet,
she looked like eve,
but she had just left Eden
No-where to go
No-way to run
The darkness fell
on her that night
and she found out that Money lies.
