Olawale on the Beat money and love
Late nights, city lights, chasing every dream
Pocket full of dollars but my heart still screams
Gold chains shining, champagne in the air
But without your love, nothing feels fair
I bought the fast cars, designer clothes
Still feeling lonely when the night gets cold
Everybody wants the fame above
But money can’t replace real love
I was counting cash while you were counting tears
Now I’m drowning slowly in my fears
Money and love, what do I choose?
If I win the world, do I still lose?
Diamonds and gold can light the night
But your sweet love makes my soul alive
Money and love, pulling my heart apart
One feeds the pocket, one heals the scars
People say “hustle, never fall behind”
So I kept on running, leaving you behind
Now your perfume lingers in my room
Like a memory singing a broken tune
I thought success would make me strong
But every victory feels so wrong
Cause every road and every flight
Still leads me back to you at night
If love is priceless, why’d I let it go?
I had everything but still felt broke
Money and love, fighting inside
One gives power, one gives life
I can buy the stars above
But I can’t buy your honest love
Money and love, now I understand
The richest heart is holding someone’s hand
(Outro)
Money fades away someday…
Real love stays.
