    “Every conversation every single story is power, you need to pay more attention cuz EVERY WORD IS A DOLLAR”. That’s the mantra you’ll hear declared on this limited edition 45 from emcee JSWISS. The 7-inch includes the Vicky Casis-produced “Withdrawal” on one side with a red label, and the Paul Bloom-produced “Rich” featuring soul singer/songwriter Amma Whatt on the other, with a green label. Both appear on JSWISS' latest album “Every Word Is A Dollar”, with titles that each speak directly to the album's theme that words, used properly, can be worth more than anything on earth.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
The tongue is mightier than the sword
My legend grows I'm destined to get a statue without an award
Matter fact my impact don't even gotta be in physical form
Omnipresent you could never ignore
Peep it, I'm hearing whispers bout my diction but it's not a secret
My drive charges by the month but it's not for leasing
Even Jesus saw my rise and he could not believe it
Judas said I'll cross you later bro you gotta see this
Please gather round the table for a second
The pious prolly pray all day cuz this a blessing
No decoding what he wrote to get the message
Clever enough, for impressing clear enough to get it
Not, over your head it's into your head implanted
This not overachieving this just the SWISS standard
I'm intolerant of anything below
For evidence ask a human buy a record see a show

Verse 2:

A new day so I'm talking different
I give you all these words for your well-being that's altruism
You thanking haters really I don't see em that's tunnel vision
You call em competition in a minute you'll call em victim
Somebody call the, doctor minister dentist somebody
Got more fire and influence than gun lobbies
The government don't rock wit it though it's the opposite
Whatever is the truth is whatever they got a problem wit
Got up in the booth and I started stating the obvious
They took my words as money and went to try to deposit it,
It's universal like American Express get it and invest
Damn I'm on a roll let's interject,
And talk about what these rappers do on the avenue
It's not what you actually do but I ain't mad at you
I read books that trappin do sound cooler
I'm a storyteller you tellin stories like Rick The Ruler
Second thought I am mad though,
It's getting corny and played out they dad jokes
[Talking] But dad jokes can actually be cool depending how you deliver it
They flip flopping ain't that a beach wave of the hypocrites
You ain't know what you needed I had to give you it
The tide turns allow me to be to impetus
Big words in my raps yea I graduated
Not bars back we been here I'm glad you made it
My flow's water to a game over saturated
In the head role this king won't get decapitated
Reign forever that's a balance of power
The crowd [PAUSE] give em an hour so
Whether record or show, got the power of both
Been a minute to build, bout a second to blow
Took the long route, like I'm going deep
I give that Jerry Rice then give you that Jon B

Don't listen to, what them people say
They don't really know how to MC
They don't give you props then it's jealousy
They don't know how to rip it
