Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm fresh off the table in Vegas, I'm bettin' big, ****
Chuck Taylors, smoke in La Brea, brought the crib with us
Soon as we pull up they pay us, that's how it is, ****
Still wanna kill us, but for now they gotta live with it
**** be hatin' up, it don't bother me none
The homie got some tommy guns, I'm 'bout to buy me one
They got it twisted, 'cause I'm ballin', havin' lots of fun
But every real **** gettin' money know that I'm the one
Just check me out, pay attention
If you watch me long enough, you see the shit I mention
I really got it, I really live it
I'm really tryin' play it down, 'cause I really did it
Dope boys in the trap holler back
Smokin' weed, cuttin' crack, countin' stacks
Do your thing, just remember it's a fact
All them **** ain't your bros, all them cell phones tapped
You in the game, and the came is just that
See, there's winners and there's losers
When your freedom gets snatched at
What you thought you wanted don't amount to what you had
Seein' that you lost them both, feelin' like you 'bout to gag and
While you gon, your daughter need a dad
And her mama need a man that can keep buyin' her bags
And it's cold, hurt you so much you gotta laugh
Future fucked, now how you supposed to get over your past?
You should just suck it up and do your time like the man say
**** ridin' dick when you had the upper hand
Talkin' like you ain't shit, and the marathon you ran wasn't nothing
That's how that shit go, but keep hustlin'
Dirty game, seen the twist, so why shawty change?
Think about it every single time I board a plane
If ain't no love, you just ignore the pain
And use the money and the fame as the novocaine
[Verse 2]
Yeah, that's how it go
When you young and gettin' dough
But do your thing, I don't give a fuck
We're gettin' money, ****
We goin' up, oh
[Verse 3]
Dirty twenties, fifties, and hundreds
Fast life that I'm livin', marathon I'm runnin'
Take advantage of everything granted, just keep it comin'
On my off day, they might accuse me of stuntin'
A-1 credit, I don't co-sign nothing
Admit it, I'm addicted, can't stop hustlin'
Went from blendin' in, now my lifestyle's custom
Bail money set aside, I ain't gonna touch it
Motivated ****, make 'em reconsider something
Lot of **** hustle, can't keep up with the money
Gotta grind through the winter to make it to the summer
A risk you gotta take when you on it like I want it
Transition out the game, no longer see opponents
Now I see a business and I'm lookin' like the owner
Handle business from a distance, I don't know 'em, I don't wanna
Snitches on the prowl, matter of fact around the corner
The punishment is heavy and it's gettin' even stronger
Money comin' steady, by the way it's even longer
Take a glimpse at my diploma, graduate it's an honor
I'm out here gettin' dollars, and they act like it's a problem
I'm all about a win, losin' never was an option
That explains all the champagne bottle poppin'
You're damn right, my whole gang make a profit
What, we gettin' money
