[00:07.04] (Cash Rules Everything Around Me
[00:08.35] C.R.E.A.M. get...)
[00:08.98] Yeah, check this ol fly shit out

[00:13.73] (Cash Rules Everything Around Me) Take you on a natural joint
[00:18.41] (C.R.E.A.M. get the money) Here we here we go
[00:25.56] (dolla dolla bill y'all) Check this shit, yo!
[00:27.49] I grew up on the crime side, the New York Times side
[00:30.20] Staying alive was no jive
[00:31.82] Had second hands, moms bounced on old man
[00:34.82] So then we moved to Shaolin land
[00:36.94] A young youth, yo rockin the gold tooth, 'Lo goose
[00:40.01] Only way, I begin to G' off was drug loot
[00:42.63] And let's start it like this son, rollin with this one
[00:45.95] And that one, pullin out gats for fun
[00:48.13] But it was just a dream for the teen, who was a fiend
[00:51.76] Started smokin woolies at sixteen
[00:53.26] And running up in gates, and doing hits for high stakes
[00:56.26] Making my way on fire escapes
[00:58.57] No question I would speed, for cracks and weed
[01:01.70] The combination made my eyes bleed
[01:03.88] No question I would flow off, and try to get the dough off
[01:07.82] Sticking up white boys in ball courts
[01:09.57] My life got no better, same damn 'Lo sweater
[01:13.01] Times is rough and tough like leather
[01:14.88] Figured out I went the wrong route
[01:17.26] So I got with a sick tight clique and went all out
[01:19.76]
[01:21.15] Catchin keys from across seas
[01:22.59] Rollin in MPV's, every week we made forty G's
[01:25.77] Yo brothas respect mine, or anger the tech nine
[01:28.59] Ch-POW! Move from the gate now

[01:51.85] A man with a dream with plans to make C.R.E.A.M.
[01:54.54] Which failed; I went to jail at the age of 15
[01:57.04] A young buck sellin drugs and such who never had much
[02:00.04] Trying to get a clutch at what I could not touch
[02:02.17]
[02:02.98] The court played me short, now I face incarceration
[02:06.79]
[02:07.73] Pacin', going up state's my destination
[02:08.85] Handcuffed in back of a bus, 40 of us
[02:11.04] Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
[02:12.98] But as the world turns I learned life is Hell
[02:15.68] Living in the world, no different from a cell
[02:17.81]
[02:18.49] Everyday I escape from Jakes givin chase, sellin base
[02:20.56]
[02:21.12] Smokin bones in the staircase
[02:22.43] Though I don't know why I chose to smoke sess
[02:26.43] I guess that's the time when I'm not depressed
[02:28.43]
[02:29.06] But I'm still depressed, and I ask what's it worth?
[02:31.74] Ready to give up so I seek the Old Earth
