Song Lyrics

Lights, cameras, stars, crowds, noise, after sets,
Cell phones, internet, vegas bets, private jets,
Limousine chauffeurs, all of that, money, clothes,
And (oh) diamonds, cars, rims, shining

None of this compares to what I see in you

[Chorus]
Materials don't mean a thing to me,
Girl you are the world to me,
If I had to pick a favorite thing,
It would easily be my baby,
Materials don't mean a thing to me,
If I lost you lady, and I'd go crazy
And I wouldn't have anything

Black cars, fly homes, condos with the chefs, personal assistants,
Corporate, real estate, yachts that will take you far away to islands,
Whites wonder low, Costa Rica, Mexico

Girl, none of this compares to what I see in you,

[Chorus]

Loving without you, you make me wealthy,
I'm all about you, so special to me,
I turned off the phone, spent time alone
I don't want to be selfish,
Girl, you're the one
I put you above all the superficial things

[Chorus]

Materials don't mean a thing to me,
Girl you are the world to me,
If I had to pick a favorite thing,
It would easily be my baby,
Materials don't mean a thing to me,
If I lost my lady, And I would not have anything

Dontae Winslow, Myron Avant
