Lyrics

Mona Lisa with the cruise control
She don't play me no rock n roll
Ain't no way you're gonna hear that soul
Playing on the radio
She bit too hard or lost that edge
Pay to play it so she play pretend
Count the ways another fool could spend
All of those Benjamins

Starting from nothing
Starting from nothing
Starting from nothing

Come home Curtis bring it all back
Get on up I like it like that
All these kids spending Daddy's stack
Calling it the promised land
Golden ages turned to rust
This whole bag done bit the dust
That old rag we used to hum
Thrumming on the interstate

It started from nothing
Started from nothing
It started from nothing
You're bound to find something
When you're starting from nothing

I never cared about anything more than music whoa
I never dreamed aloud before I dreamt about music sweet music whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa

Starting from nothing
Starting from nothing
Starting from nothing
Bound to find something
Starting from nothing
Starting from nothing
Starting from nothing
