Lyrics

[00:03.04] 96,000...
[00:04.42] Damn...
[00:05.49] 96,000...
[00:07.09] Dollers? Holla.
[00:08.45] 96,000...
[00:09.89] Yo, somebody won!
[00:11.22] 96,000...
[00:12.75] Yo...
[00:13.68] If I won the lotto tomorrow
[00:15.98] well I know
[00:16.75] I wouldn't bother going on no spending spree
[00:19.40] I'd pick a business school and pay the entrance fee
[00:22.02] Then maybe, if you're lucky, you'll stay friends with me.
[00:24.75] I'll be a business man,
[00:26.26] richer than Nina's daddy,
[00:27.84] Donald Trump and I on the links,
[00:29.60] and he's my caddy
[00:30.81] My money's making money, I'm going from po' to moto
[00:33.43] Keep the bling, I want the brass ring like frodo!
[00:36.27] Oh no, there goes mr. Braggadocio
[00:39.29] Next thing you know, you're lying like pinnochio
[00:42.10] Well if you're scared of the bull, stay out of the rodeo!
[00:44.84] Yo, I got more hoes than a phone book in tokyo!
[00:47.66] Ooh, you'd better stop rappin'
[00:49.39] You're not ready
[00:50.41] It's gonna get hot and heavy and you're already sweaty-
[00:53.09] y-y-yo-yo
[00:54.02] Yo, I'm sorry, was that an answer?
[00:55.77] Shut up, go home and pull your damn pants up!
[00:58.62] As for you, Mr. Frodo of the shire, 96 gs ain't enough to retire
[01:04.30] I'll have enough to knock your ass of its axis!
[01:06.98] You'll have a knapsack full of jack after taxes!
[01:10.03] 96,000!
[01:11.30] ay, alabanza!
[01:12.95] 96,000!
[01:14.16] No me diga!
[01:15.49] 96,000!
[01:16.86] I never win shit!
[01:18.10] 96,000!
[01:19.85] for real, though,
[01:21.72] imagine how it must feel going real slow
[01:24.86] down the highway of life
[01:26.17] with no regrets
[01:27.59] and no breaking your neck for respect or a paycheck
[01:31.43] for real, though, I'll take a break from the wheel
[01:35.74] and we'll throw the biggest block party, everybody here
[01:38.59] It's a weekend when we can breathe, take it easy
[01:42.92] Yo! ma, it's me, check my tickets!
[01:48.45] Check one two three what would you do with 96 gs?
[01:52.50] who, me?
[01:53.37] I mean, if it's just between you and me-
[01:55.18] esa pregunta es tricky!
[01:57.52] I know!
[01:59.51] with 96 g,
[02:01.31] I'd start my life with a brand new lease
[02:03.70] atlantic city with a malibu breeze
[02:06.58] and a brand new weave-
[02:08.54] or maybe just bleach...
[02:09.95] Y'all are freaks
[02:10.80] Yo, I'm just sayin...
[02:12.84] it's silly when we get into
[02:14.95] these crazy hypotheticals
[02:16.28] you really want some bread
[02:17.53] then go ahead and create a set of goals
[02:19.21] and cross them off the list as you pursue them
[02:21.48] and with those 96 i know precisely what i'm doing
[02:23.82] what you doing?
[02:24.48] What am i doing?
[02:25.17] what am I doing?
[02:26.22] It takes most of that cash just to save my ass from financial ruin
[02:32.98] sonny can keep the coffee brewin'
[02:34.62] and i'll spend a few on you
[02:36.19] cause the only room with a view's a room with you in it
[02:38.26] and i could give abuela claudia the rest of it
[02:41.29] just fly me down to puerta plata, I'll make the best of it
[02:43.65] You really love this business?
[02:45.93] no.
[02:46.56] tough, merry christmas.
[02:47.35] you're now the youngest tycoon in washington hiznits.
[02:49.99] Yo!
[02:51.98] with 96,000, I'd finally fix housing
[02:55.10] give the barrio computers and wireless web browsing
[02:57.90] Your kids are living without a good edumacation change the station,
[03:02.03] teach them about gentrification, the rent is escalating
[03:05.20] the rich are penetrating
[03:06.40] We pay our corporations
[03:08.43] when we should be demonstrating
[03:10.00] What about immigration?
[03:11.25] Racism in this nation's gone
[03:14.29] from latent to balatent!
[03:15.50] OOOH!
[03:16.32] I'll cash my ticket and picket
[03:17.31] Invest in protest
[03:18.31] never lose my focus till the
[03:19.89] city takes notice
[03:20.99] and you know this, man!
[03:22.20] I'll never sleep
[03:23.63] Because the ghetto has a
[03:24.80] Million promises for me to
[03:26.25] keep!
[03:27.05] You are so cute!
[03:27.86] I was just thinking off the top of my head.
[03:31.62] 96k. go.
[03:34.98] If I win the lottery
[03:39.28] you'll never see me again.
[03:44.46] Damn, we only jokin
[03:45.50] Stay broke, then!
[03:46.17] I'll be downtown
[03:50.77] get a nice studio
[03:53.91] get out of the barrio
[03:56.74] For real, though.
[03:58.16] Imagine how it would feel
[03:59.98] goin' real slow
[04:01.03] down the highway of life
[04:02.64] with no regrets
[04:04.05] and no breakin' your neck for respect
[04:06.95] or a paycheck -
[04:07.87] I'll be downtown,
[04:13.00] see you around
[04:19.43] If I win the lottery,
[04:24.12] you won't see a lot of me!
[04:30.22] I'll be downtown,
[04:35.90] See you around!
[04:41.76] Around!
[04:46.12] ooh, whoa, ho!
[04:59.17] We could pay off the debts we owe!
[05:01.11] We could tell every one we know!
[05:03.82] I could get on a plane and go
