JUST BENIGN
BEING BENIGN
I’M MAKING A LIVING
GIVING AWAY MORE MONEY THEN RECIEVING
PEOPLE WITH NO CONVICTION
AND PLENTY OF CONSUMPTION
TIME IS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY
AS LENDING MONEY IS A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME
JUST TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING
JUST TRYING TO MAKE ENDS MEET
AS LIFE INVITES NEW FRIENDS
SOME WHO SPEAK IN RHYTHEMS AND RHYMES
JUST TO MARKET MY MONEY
THEY JUST WANT TO BARROW SOME MONEY
ONCE THEY HAVE IT
THEY FORGET WHO I AM
NOW YOU DON’T EVEN SEE THEM AS MUCH
THEY PEEK AND THEY PEER
HOPING I WILL DISAPPEAR
JUST TO ASK SOMEONE ELSE FOR MORE
BORROWING MONEY THEY NEVER CARE
BARROWING MONEY I WOULD NEVER DARE
FOR IF YOU BELIEVE YOU’RE A FRIEND
THEN SOMETHING IS QUITE CLEAR
JUST PAY ME BACK
NO INTEREST, THAT’S FAIR
TO BAD I’M JUST BENIGN
IF I WOULD JUST NOT LEND MONEY
I’D BE JUST FINE
