Intro Yeah… La familia… Verse 1 We were eating off the same plate, same bread, same wine, Now they look me in my eyes while they plotting from behind. Used to sleep up on the floor, now it’s marble where I stand, But the devil wore a smile and he shook me by the hand. Mama cried, said, “Protect your soul before your gold,” I was young, I wanted diamonds, I ain’t listen what I was told. Now the house got a view, got the cars, got the stars, But the people that I loved left me covered up in scars. Pre-Chorus Oh no… Every blessing got a price, I know… Every rose got a knife that shows… And the deepest cuts come from your own… Chorus Money on the table, pain in the room, Toast to the family while it’s falling apart too soon. Everybody love you when you’re breaking through, Till the money get involved and they change on you. Gold on my wrist, fire in my heart, Built a whole kingdom then they tore it apart. I got everything I dreamed, that’s the craziest part, ’Cause the richer I became, the more we fell apart. Verse 2 Now my cousin want a piece, my brother want control, Everybody counting mine while I’m paying for their souls. See the greed in their eyes when they talking about love, Got me praying every night to the man above. Funny how the loyalty disappeared with the rain, Funny how they switched sides when the fortune came. I was carrying the weight while they carried the blame, Now they act like victims when they mention my name. Pre-Chorus Oh no… Every blessing got a price, I know… Every rose got a knife that shows… And the deepest cuts come from your own… Chorus Money on the table, pain in the room, Toast to the family while it’s falling apart too soon. Everybody love you when you’re breaking through, Till the money get involved and they change on you. Gold on my wrist, fire in my heart, Built a whole kingdom then they tore it apart. I got everything I dreamed, that’s the craziest part, ’Cause the richer I became, the more we fell apart. Bridge (Spanish guitar breakdown) I still hear the strings cry under moonlight skies, Like the ghosts of yesterday singing lullabies. Got a pocket full of millions but I can’t buy time, Can’t buy trust, can’t buy blood, can’t rewind. Final Chorus Money on the table, pain in the room, I can hear the echoes dancing through the fumes. Everybody got a number, everybody got a move, But I learned real love got nothing left to prove. Gold on my wrist, fire in my heart, Lost a few people when I played my part. If I had to do it all from the start, I’d choose family over everything… every part. Outro La familia… Some stayed… Some sold their soul… That’s life. That’s the price of gold.
