Change Up

(album: Star Power - 2009)

Uh huh, uh, yeah, ya know, it's the boy Wiz
Sometimes I gotta sit back and think, ya know
The audacity I have for these niggas man, ya know
But you know I just gotta focus on the positive, ya know
'Cause the negative ain't gonna do nothing but, you know what I'm saying
Bring me down, and I've worked too hard to get where I'm at
I can guarantee you one thing, I ain't going nowhere
I'm 'a be right here baby, 412, uh huh, and this the Prince, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Uh, look homie I'm from the ill-gritty, city where they kill plenty
Lost some niggas along the way, some of em' still with me
So why don't ya'll come through, while the boys show you
How we living in the 412
Where young niggas got no intentions of working jobs
Cooking that raw is their definition of working hard
Chop it, bag it, hit the block and work it hard
Tired of struggling, so we started hustling
Gotta bring that money in, didn't wanna run the streets
But looking at an empty plate'll make a nigga wanna eat
And get up on his feet, hustling and scrambling
A [?] will let the cold world make a man of him
And fam listen, pay attention to who you 'round
Another man can never pull you up, but he can pull you down
This something every real nigga can feel here
They hate me for the fact that I'm still here (and I ain't going nowhere)

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Yo, some say I mention drugs in every one of my songs
Not knowing you ain't gotta be doing wrong to get your hustle on
Long as you're going hard, I was taught, growing up in Pittsburgh
Shit it means, getting cake by any means
Niggas on that rap shit, niggas on that crack shit
Most niggas will clap quick, end up on your back split
Some niggas will 9 to 5, and never make a pack flip
Trying to get that cheese, some niggas end up on that rat shit
'Round here that's how you get sent into a back-flip
Nothing else to be said, my niggas try and see bread
Tired of them stomach pains, niggas try and keep fed
Filling up your pipe veins, green for the weed-head
City full of pipe-dreams, believe me I been sold those
Heavy chronic habit, we gon' need the whole zone
I stay higher than the ozone layer
I'm from the Burgh, nigga don't go there

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

I never backed or run away, slacked for one day
Had something on my chest, and held back what I wanna say
That's how I wasn't raised, manned up quicker
The young boy grew up into a stand up nigga
Fuck you pay me, I demand them figures
I'm getting mine shorty, we young niggas on the rise, on the grind shorty
Had enough of the lies, jealous niggas I despise, look in my eyes

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah

Homie we came up, niggas hating 'cause not having paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of struggling so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
