Lyrics

Mama worked her whole life long,
Saved her pennies, kept it strong,
But the printer ran all night,
And her future lost its light,
Tell me how is that not violence
When you steal a life in silence?

Sound money, sound mind,
Leave the broken clock behind,
When the foundation's built on love,
Every penny holds enough,
Sound money, sound mind,
Protect the ones you love

Time is all we really own,
Every hour, every stone
We lay down to build a floor
So our children don't fall through,
Proof of work is proof of time,
And your time is yours, not mine

Sound money, sound mind,
Leave the broken clock behind,
When the foundation's built on love,
Every penny holds enough,
Sound money, sound mind,
Protect the ones you love

Freedom ain't a slogan, nah,
It's my sister saving smart,
It's the builder in Nairobi
And the farmer with a start,
We allow each other room,
Let each purpose find its bloom

Sound money, sound mind,
Leave the broken clock behind,
When the foundation's built on love,
Every penny holds enough,
Sound money, sound mind,
Protect the ones you love

Protect the ones you love,
Protect the ones you love
