BLOCK TO THE BANK

Intro (spoken)

Yeah…

This ain’t braggin’, this education.

If you from the block, listen close.

Hook

Went from nickels in the mattress to accounts on freeze

Street dreams turned clean, now my money at ease

No flex without a plan, had to learn how to save

I’m rich now, but I’m richer in the way I behave

Verse 1

Came up where the lights flicker, bills due every week

Mama stressin’, rent late, food thin on the street

Had a pack or a plan, I chose both then I pivoted

Flipped the profit legal, now the IRS intimate

First rule I learned: don’t blow it when you win

If it’s fast money, stack it like you never seen it again

Ain’t no chains ‘fore the cushion, no whip ‘fore the fund

I was starvin’ for freedom, not the look of a one

Credit clean like a sermon, had to pray on my score

Used the system as a ladder, kicked the door like before

Now the bank know my name, not the cops in my hood

Elevation feel better than that “I made it” feel-good

Hook

Went from nickels in the mattress to accounts on freeze

Street dreams turned clean, now my money at ease

No flex without a plan, had to learn how to save

I’m rich now, but I’m richer in the way I behave

Verse 2

Had to stop buyin’ cars just to park ‘em outside

If it don’t make me richer, I don’t let it ride

Learned assets beat ego, that’s a jewel for the fam

Bought a business, not a watch—now my time in demand

LLC before the luxury, game ain’t new

If the money ain’t workin’, then what’s it doin’ for you?

Multiple streams like a rapper with flows

When one dry up, another still snow

I ain’t knockin’ the flex, I just mastered the order

Secure the foundation, then decorate the corner

Now the Rollie feel different when the rent already paid

When your kids’ kids straight, that’s a REAL parade

Bridge (spoken)

Rich ain’t what you wear.

Rich is options.

Rich is sleep.

Rich is sayin’ “no” and still eatin’.

Hook

Went from nickels in the mattress to accounts on freeze

Street dreams turned clean, now my money at ease

No flex without a plan, had to learn how to save

I’m rich now, but I’m richer in the way I behave

Verse 3

Teach the block how to flip it without catchin’ a case

How to turn pain into paperwork, hustle to space

Ownership mindset, yeah a hustler evolved

From the corners to the contracts, all problems solved

Still stunt, but it’s quiet, no need for the noise

When your lawyer on retainer and your money got poise

From the block to the bank, same hunger, new plate

We ain’t chasin’ the image, we chasin’ the fate

Outro

If you made it out once, you can make it again—

Just don’t spend it like it’s never comin’ back.

Real wealth talk.
