[Intro: Lil' Kim]
See, I believe in money, power and respect
First you get the money, then you get the motherfuckin' power
After you get the fuckin' power, motherfuckers will respect you (What's the key to life?)
[Chorus: Lil Kim]
Money, power and respect what you need in life
Money, power and respect, you'll be eatin' right
Money, power and respect, you can sleep at night
You'll see the light, what's the key to life?
Money, power and respect what you need in life
Money, power and respect, you'll be eatin' right
Money, power and respect, money, power and respect
Money, power and respect
[Verse 1: Sheek Louch & Lil Kim]
Ayo, my whole clique 'bout it, 'bout it
We take yours while you pout about it
Truck, step out, the whores wanna crowd around it
You could see me on Optimum TV
Go in your bathroom turn the light out
Scream, "Bloody Mary, 1, 2, 3"
Sheek ain't your usual friend
But I could set you up like Keyser and walk straight at the end
I'm done with ice and charms
I'm tryna ice my whole casket when I'm gone
Pull up with class on the don, once I meet 'em I greet 'em
Kiss his feet for freedom, tell em' thank you Lord
'Cause on Earth I was gettin' bored
Now resurrect me back to this cat called Sheek
So I can make this album and get back the cats that's weak
Two-thirty, six two
Me budge for you? That's like a cat vers' a pitbull
Gun, know clip full, keep hunger
And plan for the future, 'cause you figure you gon' be older
Way longer than you gon' be younger (What's the key to life?)
[Chorus: Lil Kim]
Money, power and respect what you need in life
Money, power and respect, you'll be eatin' right
Money, power and respect, you can sleep at night
You'll see the light, what's the key to life?
Money, power and respect what you need in life
Money, power and respect, you'll be eatin' right
Money, power and respect, money, power and respect
Money, power and respect, it's the key to life

[Verse 2: Styles P & Lil Kim]
Only time could tell how the clock tick
I'm really loved here, but I'm still a hostage
Two personalities, check the posture
Smoke out the mouth clear out the nostrils
Think of death, then life seem scary
I'm passin' graveyards seein' people Hail Mary
I ain't chillin' 'til I'm out parachutin'
Race my man in mountain climbin' for about ten diamonds
Twenty five thousand a piece, fuck streets
Tryin' to own the island, forget about wildin'
Try ridin' in the car that be glidin'
If I showed you where I lived, you would think I was hidin'
Sling dick to chicks that don't speak English
Wake up in Trinidad like, "Fuck it, I'm rich"
Come back, private jet, live on set
If you can shit gold, then I can spit baguettes (What's the key to life?)
[Chorus: Lil Kim]
Money, power and respect what you need in life
Money, power and respect, you'll be eatin' right
Money, power and respect, you can sleep at night
You'll see the light, what's the key to life?
Money, power and respect what you need in life
Money, power and respect, you'll be eatin' right
Money, power and respect, money, power and respect
Money, power and respect
