Pre-Chorus: Lil Perfekt
AmG
Being broke in this thing don't sit right
AmG
Do it for my folk, tryna get by
AmG
I came through the struggle with my head high
AmG
You being broke think you know what it feel like
AmGAmG
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
AmGAmG
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Chorus: Lil Perfekt
Am
Gotta keep the stove hot so it cook right, if everybody eating that's a good night
Am
Headed to the lost why I took flight, the hard times made for a good life
AmGAmG
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
AmGAmG
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Verse 1: Lecrae
Am
Never fell in love with the Coco, Never had to hold up the store with the .44
Am
Never had the door kicked in by the feds while I'm laying in the bed on the bread that I'm gon' blow
AmF
But I do know what it feel like to go to school with the knock off shoes
AmDm
Eating free lunch, tryna act all cool, boy you better know that we paid our dues
Am
Never would I trade that, nah, 'cause it made me better, it could have made me bitter
AmG
Can't buy that struggle, can't name no figure, but it made me richer
AmGAmG
Being broke made me rich, and being low made you quit
AmGAmG
But being low made me high, take time if you want this
Pre-Chorus: Lil Perfekt

Being broke in this thing don't sit right
FG
Do it for my folk, tryna get by
AmG

Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
AmGAmG
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Chorus: Lil Perfekt

Headed to the lost why I took flight, the hard times made for a good life

AmGAmG
Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
Verse 2: Lecrae
AmF
Money may have made me me richer, but the struggle got me richer than I ever been
DmEm
Learn to hustle, use ya' muscles, learn to grind and keep ya' mind up on the future, man
AmDm
We came out the trenches, government assistance in the beginning
EmDm
Keeping cans for the pennies, we saving that grease after dinner
Am
Now they counting all my pennies, counting all my figures, all up in my business, man
Am
Now they watching what I'm spending, wonderin' what I got, and wonder how I get it, man
Am
I was bought before I had a dollar, being empty handed made me stupid rich
Am
Rich in loyalty, can't pay that lawyer fee, but it's all good
The squad pitchin' it
Pre-Chorus: Lil Perfekt

Headed to the lost why I took flight, the hard times made for a good life

Being broke made me rich, being broke made me rich
