Big Rich Town (feat. Joe)

They say this is a big, rich town

I just come from the poorest part

Bright lights, city life, I gotta make it

This is where it goes down

I just happen to come up hard

Legal or illegal, baby, I gotta make it

I never took a straight path nowhere, life's full of twist and turns

Bumps and bruises, I live, I learn

I'm from that city full of yellow cabs and skyscrapers

It's hard to get a start in these parts without paper

Homie, I grew up in hell, a block away from Heaven

That corner every fifteen minutes it move a seven

Pure snow, bag it then watch it go

Occupational options, get some blow or some hoes

Shoot the bowl or the strap, learn to rap or to jack

Fuck it man, in the mean time go ahead and pump a pack

This my regal royal flow, my James Bond bounce

That 007, that sixty two on my count

I'm a undercover liar, I lie under the covers

Look up at you in the eyes and tell her, baby, I love it"

You're my inspiration, you're my motivation

You're the reason that I'm moving with no hesitation

They say this is a big, rich town

Yeah, I just come from the poorest part

Bright lights, city life, I gotta make it

This is where it goes down

Yeah, I just happen to come up hard

Legal or illegal, baby, I gotta make it

I gotta hustle through the hustle and bust while I make a move

Maneuver around the rats and wolves, I'm from the school

Of hard knocks, shots pop, bodies drop

Graveyard, pick a plot 'cause **** want your spots

I'm trying to stack shit then I go legit

Hollow tip, stuff 'em in a clip, case **** trip

My cocaine endeavors give me corporate ties

I'm supposed to lose, watch me win against the odds

All I got is my word, balls and my instinct

I'm trying to make it, we already made it my friends think

We already on top, I got a bigger plan

No more controlled substances or hand to hand

White collar visions, game changing mission

Big risks, big wins, equal bigger living

Perfect position, watch me transition

From caterpillar to butterfly in the sky

They say this is a big, rich town

Yeah, I just come from the poorest part

Bright lights, city life, I gotta make it

This is where it goes down

Yeah, I just happen to come up hard

Legal or illegal, baby, I gotta make it
