Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I got a feeling, **** really, that my money be the root
Look up at the stars, she like, "Honey, where the roof?"
Pull up, hear the dogs, Canaries, they going woof
Even once had a job pouring tar up on that roof
That boy had it hard, no facade, it's the truth
So now when I menage and get massaged it's the proof
Proof's in the puddin' and that baking soda takin'
Paper that I'm makin' got her taking photos naked
Listenin' to **** like whistling at Wendy Williams
I flip my middle finger, I'm chilling on twenty million
The rumors turn me on, I'm masturbatin' at the top
These hoes so excited so they catching every drop
I'm dodging debacles like potholes in Jamaica
We cut down the weed, bury the paper on the 'maicas
Martin had a dream, Bob got high
I still do both but somehow I got by
Creflo prayed, Mike Vick paid
Bobby Brown stray, Whitney lost weight
Kimbo Slice on the pad when I write
That Mayweather money lookin' funny in the light
But who really cares? We just throw it in the air
Celebratin' wealth, pourin' Moet in her hair
Excuse me, her weave, the bluest of weed
Trunk full of white, car smell like blue cheese
That boy get salad, beef bowel movements
BM dubs on them big thangs looking foolish
Shorty sittin' low, big things popping
Tip on the Glock from a Crip up in Compton
Shootin' at the cops, fuck one-time
I gave her to the block, I fucked one time
We Boyz N the Hood and ****, you're Lil' Tre
Suppress ya appetite, we takin' ya lil tray
Love my handgun, but my chopper still the shit
Banned in 1994 but I'm 2 Legit 2 Quit
1996, kilos was the shit
But that was better than roofing, that shit be bad for ya skin
[Verse 2]
**** was ruthless, Lord knows that I sin
But I thought about my future and the loops I could pin
Walked out on the gig and I turned to the streets
Kept my name low-key, I ain't heard from in weeks
I came up with a strategy to come up mathematically
I did it for the city but now everybody mad at me
Motherfuck 'em all, they sweat from my balls
If I drop another album, I did that for my dogs
Ten Maybachs, e'rybody ridin' big
I just sit back like, look what I did
Then I bow my head and beg for forgiveness
Once I say my prayer, everybody back to business
Smokin' on a blunt in my own restaurant
People lookin' from a distance think I'm Big Daddy Conch
Reincarnated, spirit of a G
Beef'll make you thinner, take a seat so we can eat
A Farrakhan aura, pause on the pork
You eat from the bowl while your dog need a fork
**** ain't loyal, snakes slithered in they coil
I'm laughing at you cuz, kill you **** when I'm bored
We steppin' on you crew till them motherfuckers crush
And makin' sweet love to every woman that ya lust
I love to pay your bills, can't wait to pay your rent
Curtis Jackson baby mama, I ain't askin' for a cent
Burn the house down, ****, you gotta buy another
Don't forget the gas can, jealous, stupid motherfucker
To another chapter, paper that I capture
Caught up in the rapture of gunshots and laughter
Homicide is humor and **** you lookin' funny
Women love to stare 'cause they know they see the money
I open up her mind by opening bank accounts
Deposit a hunnid stacks, break-up, won't take it out
Baby that's a gift, maybe you could live
I knew it wouldn't work, but I just like to give
Used to run the street, young **** bare feet
Now I'm in the suites and I'm eatin' crab meats
Ice so right, other rappers envy
They callin' all my jewelers up askin' what he spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout Boss, not thinkin' 'bout them
This a letter to my enemies, one I won't send, Amen
