Lyrics
Buy the WAY © Tim Martin + Kevin Harvey 2011
As I think about the question, "What is life supposed to be"
Well I don't hear any answers, so I'll answer it for me
When you're grinding out your station, thinking who else you can blame
Just remember it's a myth that every man is born the same
Cause I'll buy the bank
And buy the land
I'll buy one hundred million dollars
Worth of Hollywood (hometown) Spin
I'll buy the law
And the paper too
Just don't try to join my game
I'll buy the legs from under you
There is a way to their hearts
A way with their hands
Into their minds, there's a way
Oh, by the way
I'll buy the way
Sometime I think the devil, in his stronghold, has it made
With the demons at his bidding, tell who will not be swayed?
But old Satan needs deception, fighting love that rarely quits
While me, I've got the upper, cause ya'll love to buy my shit
I buy the bank
And buy the land
I buy one hundred million dollars
Worth of Hollywood-grade Spin
I'll buy the law
And the networks too
And if you're runnin' in my game
I'll buy you legs from under you
There's a way to their hearts
A way with their hands
Into their minds, there's a way
Oh, by the way
I buy the way
