Back when he was in high school, he was like sixteen
He was a smart kid man (always wanted to make money)
Yeah, but he was a hustler (moneymaker), hustler
Even as a kid, hustler
He used to hustle, man
He even, he used to hustle playing cards, poker
He was playing poker when he was like in like junior high school, hustler
(He used to sell umbrellas on 34th Street) yup
(And [?], but your father) and then he wanted to branch himself
(He branched off from) yeah (he said) I'ma do my own thing
(He did his own thing, we had that store)
Fake, you know, fake Gucci bags and stuff like that
(We kept our stuff on 34th Street between 7th and 8th Avenue, right?
Right where B.B. King's is at, right? In that same block)
Everybody made money hanging around your father (yup)

All my friends, his cous—, all our cousins
Anybody that hung around him made money (yup)
And we would just hang out and have fun, we'd make money
