Tremaine "Trey" Aldon Neverson (born November 28, 1984), better known by his stage name Trey Songz, is an American singer-songwriter, rapper, record producer and actor. His debut album, I Gotta Make It, was released in 2005, while his second album, Trey Day, was released in 2007. His third album, Ready, was released in 2009 while his fourth studio album, Passion, Pain & Pleasure, was released on September 14, 2010.
Songz was born Tremaine Aldon Neverson on November 28, 1984, in Petersburg, Virginia. Raised as a military brat, Songz did not have aspirations to have a musical career as a child due to his shyness, saying "Singing wasn't a reality for me, until other people started noticing I sounded good." He recognized his vocal abilities at the age of 14. Reluctant to sing, he began performing with encouragement by friends and family in high school. Record producer Troy Taylor discovered Songz during a talent show in 2000, which led him to signing a recording contract with Atlantic Records in 2002. After graduating from high school in 2002, Songz moved to New Jersey to begin recording his debut album, though recording didn't actually begin until 2003.

Kevin A. Plank (born August 13, 1972) is an American CEO and founder of Under Armour, Inc., a leading manufacturer of sports performance apparel, footwear and accessories based in Baltimore, Maryland.
Plank is the youngest of five brothers, born into a competitive, tight-knit Roman Catholic family. His father, William Plank (died 1993), was a real estate investor and his mother, Jayne Harper Plank, is a former mayor of Kensington, Maryland. Kevin left Georgetown Preparatory School because of poor academic performance, but went on to play football at Fork Union Military Academy. Plank graduated from St. John's College High School, in Washington, D.C., where he remains an active alumnus. He attended the University of Maryland.
At the University of Maryland, he launched various businesses of his own. Plank developed Cupid's Valentine, an annual business that sold roses for Valentine’s Day. He put away $17,000 from the rose business, which eventually became seed money for Under Armour. The original concept for Under Armour was born out of necessity, as Plank was the self-proclaimed “sweatiest guy on the football field”. Frustrated by his sweat-soaked cotton t-shirts' inability to keep him dry and comfortable, he started the hunt for a material that would wick the sweat from his body to make him lighter and faster.
I want the money, money and the cars, cars and the clothes
I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
Ahh yeah Trey I fuckin' feel ya
They be starin' at the money ilike its unfamilar
I get it, I live it to me there's nothing realer
Just enough'll solve your problems
Too much'll kill ya
And when I leave I always come right back here
The young spitter that everybody in rap fear
Alotta y'all is still soundin' like last year
The game needs change and I'm the mothafuckin' cashier
Nickel for my thoughts, dimes in my bed
Quarters of the kush shape the lines in my head
Take my verses too serious and you'll hate me
'Cause I'm the one to paint a vivid picture no HD
I want it all that's why I strive for it
Diss me and you'll never hear a reply for it
Any award show or party I get fly for it
I know that it's coming I just hope that I'm alive for it
I want the money, money and the cars, cars and the clothes
I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I want the money, money, money I want a whole lot of that
All the honeys they askin' where the dollars at
Where yo' head at, tell me 'bout your styling cap
Tryna find a way but you never got a map
Dream chaser, risk taker
No favor, though haters
They might want me to drown
Holdin' me down
But the throne and the crown
Is all I ever wanted, all I ever needed
If I'm the only one and don't nobody else believe it
Then keep it a secret nd watch me achieve it
'Cause I know what I want now
So if you want the money
If you gotta make
If you the only one nd don t nobody else believe it
Then tell em to beat it
And watch you achieve it
Sing it if you want
I want the money, money and the cars, cars and the clothes
I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
Yeah, I want things top go my way
But as of late alotta shit been goin' sidewqays
And my mother tried to run away from home
But I left something in the car
So I caught her in the driveway
And she cried to me, so I cried too
And my stomach was soakin' wet, she only 5'2'
And 40 that was all before I showed up
And brought a thousand dollars worth of drinks and got poured up
Damn, my reality just set in
And even when the Phantom's leased them hoes wanna get in
I do alot of things hopin' I never have to fit in
So tryna keep up with my progress is like a dead end
My girl love me, but fuck it my heart beats slow
And right now the tour bus is looking like a freak show
And life change for us every single week so
It's good but I hope this ain't the peak though
'Cause I want the
I want the money, money and the cars, cars and the clothes
I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
Money, money, cars, cars
Clothes, clothes, the hoes
I suppose, yeah
I want the money, money and the cars, cars
And the clothes, the hoes I suppose

Drizzy, ah yeah, Trey, I fuckin' feel you
They be starin' at the money like it's unfamiliar
I get it, I live it, to me there's nothings realer
Just enough to solve your problems, too much will kill ya
And when I leave I always come right back here
The young spit'a that everybody in rap fear
A lot of y'all are still soundin' like last year
The game needs change and I'm the mofucking cashier
Nickels for my thoughts, dimes in my bed
Quarters of the kush shape the lines in my head
Take my verses too serious, ya hate me
'Cause I'm the one to paint a vivid picture no HD
Yeah, I want it all, that's why I strive for it
Dis me and you'll never hear a reply for it
Any awards show or party I get fly for it
I know that it's comin' I just hope that I'm alive for it
I want the money, money and the cars, cars
And the clothes, the hoes I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
Yeah, I want things to go my way
But as of late a lot of shit been goin' sideways
And my mother tried to runaway from home
But I left somethin' in the car and so I caught her in the driveway
And she cried to me so I cried too
And my stomach was soakin' wet, she only 5'2
And forty eight hours was all before I showed up
And brought a thousand dollars worth of drinks and got pulled up
Damn, my reality just set in
And even when the Phantom's leased them hoes wanna get in
I do a lot of things hopin' I neva have to fit in
So tryin' to keep up with my progress is like a dead end
My girl love me but fuck it, my heart beat slow
And right now the tour bus is lookin' like a freak show
And life change for us every single week
So it's good but I know this ain't the peak though 'cause I want
I want the money, money and the cars, cars
And the clothes, the hoes I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
Wise words from a decent man
Back when I was tryin' to put a ring on Alicia Hand
This lost boy got fly without Peter Pan
And my delivery just got me buzzin' like the pizza man
In person I am everything and more
I'm everywhere these other niggas never been before
But inside I'm treadin' waters steady tryin' to swim ashore
I'm on a shoppin' spree to get whateva is in store
Yeah, just call me "Shop And Bag Drizzy"
And call me "Mr. Damn", he ain't copin' that is he
And fans of these freshman is about to get iffy
While this youngin' that you doubtin' is about to get busy
I'ma kill it, I promise this, I know you mad
I've always treated my city like some shoulder pads
To big homie use a flash if you must
And I swear I ain't askin' for much, all I want is
I want the money, money and the cars, cars
And the clothes, the hoes I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
It's like I know what I got to say
I just don't know how to say it to you
Pardon the swag but bitches cartate
Long bread, I don't eat shortcake
How come I can't miss a woman
Like I can't miss court dates
Cheese but she's not in this portrait
Life's fine but I do not portray
I'm on the other side but it is a sharp gate
I don't want the glow, I want the glo'ray
And I'ma fuck the world but this is just foreplay
Tired of hearing bullshit, bring her on to cow shit
Haven't met a smell that's stinkier than shit
That's word to Toronto
So high up I got birds in the condo
Ain't that a female dog
Ask her who I am to her and she yell, God
see i aint really on this kinda thing,
but it just feels right ya kno
as i sit back reclined in my chair,
and let my pen leake on this page in despair
no one can understand how much is on my mind
so for the next three minutes call me harry that's fine
before i sat here i thought success was a virtue
untill i found out how this industry could hurt you
being the youngest in the game at fifteen relies on my love's in pain yeah
i want the money
money and the cars
the cars and the clothes
the hoes.. i suppose
i just wanna be
i just wana be succesful
i just wanna be
i just wana be succesful
yooo
This kind of deep
kind of shit feeling
waking up to a life that don't seem real
it's even harder with no one you can relate to
hard work, no pase still won't let me break through
still wont let me get in
everyday at some point i wonder how it would've been
to be a normal kid at fifteen roaming around the streets doing gun sheilds
i want the money
money and the cars
the cars and the clothes
the hoes.. i suppose
i just wanna be
i just wana be succesful
i just wanna be
i just wana be succesful
you see me shining under the light
you wish you could have it
o'r live my life
but if i told you what shit i did to get here
i garentee everyone hating would stay clear
