Never fell in love the Coco, Never had to hold up a store with the .44 Never had the door kicked in by the feds, Laying in the bed with the bread that I'm blow But I do know what it feel like to go to school the knock off shoes Eating free lunch, tryna act all cool, boy you better that we paid our dues Never would I trade that, nah, it made me better, it could have made me bitter You can't ride with the struggle, name no figure, but it made me richer Being broke me rich, and being low made you quit But being low me high, take time if you wanna get it
Being broke in this thing don't sit Do it for my folk, get by I came through the struggle with my high You being broke you know what it feel like Being broke made me rich, being broke made me broke made me rich, being broke made me rich

Money may have made me richer, but the struggle made me richer I ever been Learn the hustle, use ya' muscles, to keep ya' mind up on the future, man Came out the trenches, assistance in the beginning Keeping cans for the pennies, we that grease after dinner Now counting all my pennies, counting all my figures, all up in my business, man Now they what I'm spending, wonderin' what I got, and wonder how I'ma get it, man I was bought before I had a dollar, being empty made me stupid rich in loyalty, made in royalty, but it's so good, that why I mention it
Being broke in thing don't sit right Do it for my folk, get by I came the struggle with my head high You being broke think you what it feel like Being broke made me rich, broke made me rich Being broke made me rich, being made me rich
Gotta keep the stove hot so it cook right, if everybody eating that's a good Headed to the lost why I took flight, the hard made for a good life Being broke made me rich, being made me rich Being broke made me rich, broke made me rich
