Only Money Lyrics


A Day To Remember Only Money

[Verse 1]
My momma called me and said "Son, it's Nonne
I'm sorry to tell you your grandmama passed"
Took me back to the moment watchin' The Sound of Music
In your living room before you read me to bed

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I know now, but I didn't then
These were moments building a man
None of us had much and you showed me what that means

[Chorus]
It was only money
Cost me some family, cost me some friends
It was only money
Doesn't define me, I can't pretend
Taught me 'bout resentment, about forgivenеss
No matter what path lies ahead
Taught mе 'bout judgement, about what love is
That family's family 'til the end
It was only money

[Verse 2]
A few days before that I got a message
From my aunt that said you weren't doin' too well
We scrambled to call you to show off the baby
My wife and I had just brought into the world

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I got chills as we said goodbye
Somehow I knew it was the last time
I'm usually gone for work
But nothing's worth missin' memories

[Chorus]
It was only money
Cost me some family, cost me some friends
It was only money
Doesn't define me, I can't pretend
Taught me 'bout resentment, about forgiveness
No matter what path lies ahead
Taught me 'bout judgement, about what love is
That family's family 'til the end
It was only money (Money, money)
It was only money, money, money, money

[Verse 3]
If you can hear me
I'll always picture you at the piano singin' your songs
Just know there's so many lessons you left me
I'll always carry along

[Chorus]
It was only money
Cost me some family, cost me some friends
It was only money
Doesn't define me, I can't pretend
Taught me 'bout resentment, about forgiveness
No matter what path lies ahead
Taught me 'bout judgement, about what love is
That family's family 'til the end
It was only money (Money, money, money)
It was only money, money, money, money
It was only money, money, money, money
It was only money, money, money, money
It was only money
