LOVE, MONEY, FAME
Lyrics:
[English]
Choosing love over money and fame is easy to say, but hard to do.
Without deep, genuine love, it can feel nearly impossible.
So how to love..and how do you express it?
I, never before in my life time
Said to you what I’ve been feelin’
So let me tell you in our prime time
Cuz you changin’ me for better
You're the reason for my being
Yeah you’re the one who makes me breathe
Oh baby It’s all up to you
Forever my only GOAT
Love’s got so many paradigms
Won’t let that go confuse your mind
You know what I need is only you
(Yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh)
Love is one word I’m sure about
No lies, no doubt, look at me now
Just trust me once baby
I’ll never let you down baby
Everyone wants it (Hey-) Love, Fame, Money (Ho-)
But only want you baby baby baby
I only want you baby baby baby
I don’t need money or fame To me that don’t mean a thing
I just need your love that’s more than enough
Baby baby yeh baby baby yeh
Poppin' time’s money, tiki-tokin
Don’t you see they’re wasted with cheap-talkin?
I can solve your problem with one dime piece
Time together, nothing melts in my ice cream
Scared that you’ll ever wanna leave me
Cause if you do, baby what did I achieve yeah
Fame, Money, Love there’s a lot
Only last one, only thing I want
Love’s got so many paradigms
Won’t let that go confuse your mind
You know what I need is only you
(Yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh)
Love is one word I’m sure about
No lies, no doubt, look at me now
Just trust me once baby
I’ll never let you down baby
Everyone wants it (Hey-) Love, Fame, Money (Ho-)
But only want you baby baby baby
I only want you baby baby baby
I don’t need money or fame To me that don’t mean a thing
I just need your love that’s more than enough
Baby baby yeh baby baby yeh
When we are loving, I don’t need something
That’s where my heart is, with you always
When you are with me, I don’t need something
That’s where my heart is, with you always
Everyone wants it (Hey-) Love, Fame, Money (Ho-)
But only want you baby baby baby
I only want you baby baby baby
I don’t need money or fame To me that don’t mean a thing
I just need your love that’s more than enough
Baby baby yeh baby baby yeh
