[Chorus]
You can get money
You can have power
Yea, but where is the love?
(You can get money, money can't buy love)
You can get money
You can have power
Yea, but where is the love?
(Money, power)
Money, power, respect
[Syleena Johnson]
More ice than an Eskimo
Big crib, a C.E.O.
White Range on 44's
But no love to call your own
(Heyyyyyyy)
You can get money
But what is it to gain a world
You can buy material things
When the greatest gift of all is love
[Chorus]
You can get money
You can have power
Yea, but where is the love?
(You can get money, money can't buy love)
You can get money
You can have power
Yea, but where is the love?
(Money, power)
Money, power, respect
Bright lights, fancy clothes,
Front row at fashion shows
First class and limousines
But what does it really mean
(Heyyyyyy)
You can get money
But what is it to gain a world
You can buy material things
When the greatest gift of all is love
[Chorus]
You can get money
You can have power
Yea, but where is the love?
(You can get money, money can't buy love)
You can get money
You can have power
Yea, but where is the love?
(Money, power)
Money, power, respect
[Teefa] You kno thas real talk for ya
[Rap]
[Teefa] Yea
[Syleena Johnson] Teefa!
[Teefa] ha ha ha wat up ma
[Syleena Johnson] let's sho 'em how Chicago do
[Teefa] Fo' Sho
[Syleena Johnson] Let's Go
[Teefa] He can provide for ya
[? ]
Shops spend every quarter, nickle, dime on ya
(yea)
He on the grind no time for ya
Benz dealership he'll cosign for ya
Drop the down payment the house & the games
This ain't love
This a business arrangement
Shit!
He wanna touch me, hold me
Keep me on display like I'm a trophy
They say diamonds a girls best homie
Dude won't even talk and try to get to know me
But if he did he'll realize
I don't really give a shit
He can keep the money and the crib, dig!
It's like a good job, where the salary is the shit
But you hate the gig
If it's no love it's bogus
Matter fact I quit
Fuck a two week notice
Ha Ha
[Chorus]
You can get money
You can have power
Yea, but where is the love?
(You can get money, money can't buy love)
You can get money
You can have power
Yea, but where is the love?
(Money, power)
Money, power, respect
