متن موزیک

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah (Uh), yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

How can I help you? What can I do for you?

Lookin' for that China white girl that's soft?

If I ain't got it, I know where to find it

Pimp, I can get it for you, boss (Boss)

How much you got in your budget? The

More you buy, the less it cost (Cost)

I can front you a few on consignment long

As your ass don't double-cross (What else?)

If you cross collateralize, you gon'

Get your cranium sawed off (Uh-huh)

I got mouths to feed, my nigga, I can't

Afford to take no loss (What you gon' do?)

I can give your ass a job, but it's up to you to keep the car runnin'

Can't be no punk about your hustle, pimp

Gotta keep the money comin' (That's right)

I'm out here dealin' with these suckers

Laughin', smilin' in your face, ass-bustin')

They'll stab your ass in the back (And brothers

Turn on each other, turn on each other)

I know when it's gon' be a shortage and how

Long the shortage supposed to last (Last)

I ain't gotta look at the weather

Channel to predict the forecast ('Cast)

Players is frustrated 'cause it ain't no work and ain't no jobs (Jobs)

So they plottin', plan and scam (Scam)

, On who next that they gon' rob (Rob)

Bite the hand that feed 'em (Feed 'em)

That shit right here ain't charred (Charred)

Two-faced, this little ol' heathen (Yeah)

, Workin' with the lard (With the lard)

Man, no matter what you do for niggas

They ain't gon' never be satisfied

Tell it like it is

My whole thing is like, why dudes be

Lettin' cats get in they ear, though?

I'm just tellin' it like it is

I don't know what the fuck happened

Between '96 up until now, niggas is hoes

I'ma tell it like it is

Man, niggas is goin' out backwards

Man, killers is snitchin', my nigga

What's happenin' with that? Tell it like it is

Ugh, if there was a snake, it would've bit ya (Bit ya)

See, you been fuckin' with so many niggas

That you wouldn't even know what hit ya

Now you don't even know where to look, you

Don't even really know which way to turn (Turn)

Got you tryna protect your perm 'cause of

All the bridges you done burned (Burned)

And you niggas cry too much nowadays, you

Niggas feelings get hurt too easy (Easy)

Might as well wear a tampon (Tampon)

, Might as well be a breezy (Breezy)

A closed mouth don't get fed and a lazy hustler don't get bread

A pimp and I can't read minds, I don't know what's in your head

Everybody think they know it all

Don't wanna hear nobody speak (Speak)

Shut the fuck up and listen sometime, even if you an OG (G)

Me, personally, I'm a grinder, can't let no grass

Grow under my feet (Grass grow under my feet)

Don't nothin' come to a sleeper but a dream, peep (Peep)

A vision without a plan (Plan) is just a hallucination ('Nation)

I got a lot of folks in the pen' (Pen'

), Programmin' on vacation ('Cation)

I'ma give it to you straight, I ain't gon' give it to you late (Late)

I'ma tell your ass what's real (Real)

I ain't gon' tell you nothin' fake (Fake)

Man, I got my own dreams, everybody want me to finance theirs

Tell it like it is

You know who I like? I like that boy 40, man

He twenty years in the game and he consistent

I'm just tellin' it like it is

Not all of 'em, but a lot of these new dudes is ringtone rappers, man

I'ma tell it like it is

Fools just have one album out and act like they just it

Tell it like it is

Ugh, same song, third verse (Third verse)

It's from the heart, it ain't rehearsed (It ain't rehearsed)

The world is full of associates with very few friends (Ooh)

Don't wanna contribute nothin', but

Wanna help you spend your ends (Ends)

Think before you open your mouth, park your tongue and lip (Lip)

Watch who you talkin' about, never

Know who you havin' dinner with (With)

You ain't got nothin' good to say

Say), don't say nothin' at all (At all)

That's what I was told, that's what I was

Taught when I was small (When I was small)

A lot of these so-called hustlers got too

Much time on your hands (On your hands)

Should be gettin' your money on (On)

Instead of hatin' on the next man (Man)

It's lonely at the top and it's extra crowded at the bottom (Bottom)

That's why I always keep my pistol cocked

In case I gotta stop 'em (Stop 'em)

Stapler in my lap, trunk full of slap, hollerin' at a batch (Batch)

Head full of naps, pocket full of scratch

Nothin' but thousands stacked (Stacked)

In my old school, actin' a fool, makin' my presence known (Known)

I only do business face to face, don't like to talk on phone (Phone)

When I'm at a stop sign or a red light

I leave one car space in front of me

Tell it like it is

Just so I can have enough room to get up out of there

Just in case somebody try to pop at me or something

I'm just tellin' it like it is

That's how I was raised, I'm still a student of the game

You can learn from a baby

I'ma tell it like it is (That's right)

Man, I was hollerin' at my grandpartner

He say, "40, return phone calls and you keep your friends"

Tell it like it is (Ugh)
