Paid Off

(album: 9th Ward God - 2018)

The streets made me a monster
And I ain't get nothing but some pain from it
I swear everyday I do it all again (I will)
The streets made me a monster
And I ain't get nothing but some pain from it (beast mode)
Yeah, Marlo

The streets done made me a monster
I ain't get nothin but pain from 'em
I swear that I'll do it all again (I will)
And my brother became my best friend 'til the end
And I'm on the block with the OG's drinking gin
Done lost my dog, it hurt a nigga within (thug)
They say the good die young, well CJ I know you fucking win (CJ)
And I was on shiver with the J's and the big pistol and the bomb
And I'm still on that run up nigga get done up (done up)
When niggas say they want beef, nigga get guns up (gun up)
How the fuck you beef with no money, you don't bruh (haha)
And the westside niggas glad that I came up (came up)
Had to stay down with the Marlo and they ain't change up
Switched the game then I came up and it was dangerous
Made a million dollars nigga, stacking paper (paper)
And I tell them hater niggas fuck you later (fuck 'em)

And them long days and the long nights
And the hard work done paid off, no days off
And I'm riding 'round with that draco tryna face off
Get you Adolf like a Hitler
If the bitch bad then I'll tip her
And if the pussy clean I'll lick her
You know the Percocet got me tripping
And them long days and the long nights
And the hard work done paid off, no days off
And I'm riding 'round with that draco tryna face off
Get you Adolf like a Hitler
If the bitch bad then I'll tip her
And if the pussy clean I'll lick her
You know the Percocet got me tripping

I was on Water Street selling two five for ahk (ahk)
Then I turned around and hit a big lick with Doc
I told ahk he gotta come in on that block (block)
Then I put my lil brother n' them on the clock
How the fuck you think I made Set Up Shop?
Moved them bricks and then I popped (popped)
And them long days and them long nights, shit was hard (hard)
Standing in the cut nigga with all my boys (my boys)
Shit was real in the field, I watched lil Kim get killed
And then Quay had got shot and nigga know that this shit was real
Fuck it is what it is
Bet that shit won't happen no more
I'm pulling up, hanging out the side door (pop pop)
MDC what I ride for, 'bout PFK I'm dying bro
And long live Net, what he died for (died)
We posted in the kitchen in the 9th Ward
And fuck being broke, them my words (yeah)
We was flipping them chickens, them my birds (them chickens)

Them long days and the long nights
And the hard work done paid off, no days off
And I'm riding 'round with that draco tryna face off
Get you Adolf like a Hitler
If the bitch bad then I'll tip her
And if the pussy clean I'll lick her
You know the Percocet got me tripping
And them long days and the long nights
And the hard work done paid off, no days off
And I'm riding 'round with that draco tryna face off
Get you Adolf like a Hitler
If the bitch bad then I'll tip her
And if the pussy clean I'll lick her
You know the Percocet got me tripping

I'm tripping, I'm tripping, I'm tripping
I'm tripping, I'm tripping, I'm tripping
