Songtext
0:00I am not merely an economic unit
0:02I am human
0:03How far off are we that
0:05That can sound confusing
0:06I wanna strive for more
0:07But oftentimes
0:07I don't know how to
0:09I need a new money that
0:10Measures my inherent value
0:13What's your salary
0:13What's your rate
0:14What's your hourly wage
0:15What's your position
0:16Your commission
0:16How much are you for the day
0:18When we meet somebody new
0:19What is the first thing that we say
0:20What do you do
0:21AKA how much money do you make
0:24And then we take that information
0:25And we sort it in our brains
0:27Assess the value
0:27Calculate where to put them on the page
0:29The hierarchy of importance
0:31I mean this is just insane
0:32You're tellin' me that we've agreed
0:34To tie self-worth to what we're paid
0:36You're tellin' me that we've agreed
0:38To tie self-worth to what we're paid
0:41Well what a grave mistake to make
0:42What terrible advice to take
0:43If the scoreboard counts in dollars
0:45What kinda game you think we'll play
0:47Yo I am not merely an economic unit
0:49I am human
0:50How far off are we that
0:51That can sound confusing
0:53I wanna strive for more
0:54But oftentimes
0:54I don't know how to
0:56I need a new money that
0:57Measures my inherent value
0:59But like my four-year-old askin'
1:01Why until she's blue in the face
1:03My inner child inquires about
1:05This money that we make why
1:07I make money 'cause I need it why
1:09So I can have financial freedom why
1:10So I can keep up with the Jones' why
1:12So someday I can own a home and why
1:14So I can climb the social ladder why
1:15So I feel like I even matter why
1:17'Cause I'm constantly worried that
1:18I won't be enough why
1:20'Cause I'm worried without money
1:21I'm not worthy of love
1:23Yo I am not merely an economic unit
1:25I am human
1:26How far off are we that
1:27That can sound confusing
1:28I wanna strive for more
1:30But oftentimes
1:30I don't know how to
1:31I need a new money that
1:33Measures my inherent value
1:37But what if the scoreboard tallied love
1:39What if the stock market valued love
1:41What if the 401k was judged by how much
1:43You lifted others up
1:44What if the best we could get was love
1:46What if we were impressed with love
1:47What if the status and class was love
1:49What if it mattered how much you love
1:51What if the money was not enough
1:53What if we worked nine to five for love
1:54What if the point of this life was love
1:56What if the point of this life was love
1:59Yo I am not merely an economic unit I am human
I am not merely an economic unit I am human How far off are we that That can sound confusing I wanna strive for more But oftentimes I don't know how to I need a new money that Measures my inherent value What's your salary What's your rate What's your hourly wage What's your position Your commission How much are you for the day When we meet somebody new What is the first thing that we say What do you do AKA how much money do you make And then we take that information And we sort it in our brains Assess the value Calculate where to put them on the page The hierarchy of importance I mean this is just insane You're tellin' me that we've agreed To tie self-worth to what we're paid You're tellin' me that we've agreed To tie self-worth to what we're paid Well what a grave mistake to make What terrible advice to take If the scoreboard counts in dollars What kinda game you think we'll play Yo I am not merely an economic unit I am human How far off are we that That can sound confusing I wanna strive for more But oftentimes I don't know how to I need a new money that Measures my inherent value But like my four-year-old askin' Why until she's blue in the face My inner child inquires about This money that we make why I make money 'cause I need it why So I can have financial freedom why So I can keep up with the Jones' why So someday I can own a home and why So I can climb the social ladder why So I feel like I even matter why 'Cause I'm constantly worried that I won't be enough why 'Cause I'm worried without money I'm not worthy of love Yo I am not merely an economic unit I am human How far off are we that That can sound confusing I wanna strive for more But oftentimes I don't know how to I need a new money that Measures my inherent value But what if the scoreboard tallied love What if the stock market valued love What if the 401k was judged by how much You lifted others up What if the best we could get was love What if we were impressed with love What if the status and class was love What if it mattered how much you love What if the money was not enough What if we worked nine to five for love What if the point of this life was love What if the point of this life was love Yo I am not merely an economic unit I am human
