Getting Money

(album: 51/50 Ratchet - 2007)

[Intro:]
Spent a long time comin
They wonder why I act like this ya heard me
That's all I know

[Chorus: x2]
Say you see I still got much to learn
But I know I still I got money to burn
I'm in the streets can't take it out on me
I'm getting money getting money dats all I know

[Verse 1:]
How could you criticize me for acting like I act if I ain't never had a thang
My daddy got locked when I was 12 my whole life changed
My momma hustled hard and did hell to get the bills paid
While you probably riding round the in yo escalade
But now that I got money I went and bought me 2 mansions
Juss to stunt on them niggas who told me I never had it
I walk out the door the other day and my momma told me you got a lot to learn
She told me just because we got all this money to burn don't think I can't be a turned
To go bigger to the streets
So I stay back with some heat
24 hours 7 days of the week cause they free
24 hours 7 days of the week I'm a beast

[Chorus: x2]
Say you see I still got much to learn
But I know I still I got money to burn
I'm in the streets can't take it out on me
I'm getting money getting money dats all I know

[Verse 2:]
I'm 18 years old and I done seen more drama than a lil bit
And don't advise you to talk about it unless you lived it
My pedal to the medal while I'm thinkin bout all my dogs I lost in the streets
Tryin to ball like me
And this is for my niggas who used to roll gold d poppin the trunk on them swanggers Hopping
out in tall tees so all my niggas that ballin and feel like me from the struggle and gutta to
making a live g
Keep my head up remember who got me right where I'm at today as long as I got money I give a
damn what a hater say
One thang I know for sho I'm a get paper till it ain't no more
Plus I got a crazy flow
Yea
I know some body said a hard head make a soft ass
That's why I keep a block on the seat while I'm ridin in the jag
5150 you don't know nothing bout it
Homeboy... judge... still ain't comin

[Chorus: x2]
Say you see I still got much to learn
But I know I still I got money to burn
I'm in the streets can't take it out on me
I'm getting money getting money dats all I know

[Verse 3:]
I'm makin money nigga you can't tell me shit
I'm gone keep stuntin instead of shinning on these hatas
I'm counting money doing my thang I be hustling from Monday to Sunday
Doing what I want I be getting it in

[Chorus: x2]
Say you see I still got much to learn
But I know I still I got money to burn
I'm in the streets can't take it out on me
Get money get money dats all I know
