|
It's gettin close to the end y'all |
|
But we gonna kick it like this on the last album |
|
Now let me holler at ya partner, spit this game |
|
In you ear for a minute, quit complaining |
|
Bout how you can't spend it cause you ain't got it |
|
You got what it takes but not enough to get started |
|
I hope you get the message, no it's not a test it's |
|
Just me ridin legit, they can't arrest me or bust me |
|
I'm still hungry, |
|
I want some more stuff |
|
Get fat and watch my whole crew blow up |
|
So get yours, and buy my new album |
|
Peep the game and don't be like calvin |
|
Get everything you want, get real, get you mail |
|
Get your girl to make bail and get your ass out of jail |
|
You should be gettin it, everything you want |
|
Everything you dreamed of, never have to front |
|
You shoulf be gettin it, gettin money |
|
I'm talking bout you black, don't laugh it ain't funny |
|
You should get a good lawyer, like johnny cochran |
|
Swear to tell the truth, hell no |
|
I didn't pop him |
|
Get your kids in school, so they can get an education |
|
Get a degree, and take a vacation |
|
You see I got all my game from the streets of california |
|
Young millionaire with no high school diploma |
|
Livin real good, taking care of my folks |
|
Roll up a fat one for the players to smoke |
|
Short dawg in the house, |
|
I know you ain't trippin |
|
Cause life is too $hort you gotta get in where you fit in |
|
Stop looking for what you never seem to find |
|
It ain't what you think you got to read between the lines |
|
Cause life ain't long, for a young black man |
|
Tryin to make money doing all he can |
|
Sellin dope don't ya hope he would go to classb |
|
But the boy makes money and he makes it fast |
|
With the twenties on top and the fifties on the bottom |
|
I fuck the top notches oh yes we got em |
|
It's been a long time since |
|
I first got down |
|
But I still keep makin these funky sounds |
|
Get your money man |
|
Get yoursYou should be gettin it |
|
Get it while the gettin is good, get it while you can |
|
You should be gettin it |
|
Get it while the gettin is good |
|
I know you tired of being broke just hanging out |
|
You gotta lot a dreams but you can't get out |
|
The first thing you need to do is set your self some goals |
|
Think positive, everything else is old |
|
And work hard, never stop hustlin |
|
Cause they just love to see the black man strugglin(So what are you saying todd? ) |
|
It's time to come up, put your dollar bills in the air |
|
He said meet me at the white house and |
|
I was there |
|
Cause I'm one in a million, black man rising |
|
They wanna keep me down but |
|
I always surprise em |
|
Spend my money in the hood, |
|
I know it's all good |
|
And you should do the same |
|
I told you peep the game |
|
Too $hort, you know |
|
I'm the man |
|
I lend my brother a hand cause |
|
I know I can |
|
I keep going and goin but |
|
I'm not the pink bunny |
|
I'm not beatin on a drum |
|
I never stop thinkin money |
|
I'm gettin all |
|
I can if you don't ya slip |
|
I can't wait to get to heaven just to have a grip |
|
When I was broke, |
|
I couldn't afford a meal |
|
But now I'm now rich |
|
I can't be fake |
|
I gots to keep it real |
|
It's been a long time baby since |
|
I first got down |
|
But it still keep making these funky sounds |
|
You should be gettin it |
|
Get it while the gettin is good, get it while you can |

|
Get it while the gettin is good(I earned my respect in the streetThe ghetto's been good to meI'm never going to turn my backThe true and living so I got to kick the facts) |
