Gettin' Paid
(专辑: The Commission - 1998)
[Hook] Got my mind on this money, cause I
gotta stay paid Running into fakers on my journey, everyday Just because, they see a
nigga riding high They think that I
be slipping, and I
don't know why I
got this money in my pocket, making moves everyday Laughing at these haters, waving money in they face Even though I
know, they really wanna ride I
pay em no attention, and they don't know why [Lil' Keke] Hit em up get em up, early in the
morning I'm smoking pine and writing rhymes, while niggaz still yawning By noon I'm out the
do', twenty inches to the
flo' Although bidness been slow, this mouthpiece fa sho And I
know that no hoe, can interfere with this cash flow That ass we can bash, like grass begin to grow Zero once mo', had to show up and po' up Unexpectedly blow up, then proceed to sew up Bitches throw up they sick, far gon on my dick I
was treated like shit, until I
dropped my first hit Southside baby, won't you scream it if you mean it I
done been there done that, 22 young I
done seen it Got some plex go on bring it, rap star but I
can sing it Twenty G's a
show, with eight mo' I
can swing it Moving ki's and G's, on down to C.D.'s and LP's Clocking nothing but thee's, doing this thang with ease I'm getting paid [Hook] [Lil' Keke] This the
space age playa, let's drift into places Where gangstas turn stars, on the
regular basis You don't work you don't eat, lesson one on the
street I'm the
only man in my mama's eyes, I
gotta be on feet But my mystery is complete, in this life long miracle I
must confess I
been blessed, just to be so lyrical Smoking blunts and pulling stunts, bitch I'm cold as a
blizzard I
get in to fit in, then blend in like a
lizard It's the
wizard, steady waving my wand Be calm in the
presence, of the
hard headed don Switched up on haters, grabbed the
sto's and theaters Put the
steak on a
plate, large estates with the
acres Put the
punks in the
trunks, put the
frauds with the
fakers Got my grind on, shine on with my paper How can you escape the, lyrical impact That's coming through your chest, your head and your back It's a
fact that I
stack, count mills to be exact Rap game hall of fame, nothing but awards and placks So where the
haters at, so I
could squash the
chit-chat Born and raised to break hats, and stay strapped with my gat Cream mats in the
Lac, chromey 4's be turning Money earning my concerning, plus the
weed I'm burning I'm confirming the
commission, while you suckers get played Jam Down it's for real, forever get paid we getting paid [Hook] [Lil' Keke] It's so hard to get rich, but easy to be broke And these toss up's and cross up's, mo' niggaz get smoked I'm at the
end of the
road, transacts for do' When there's a
will there's a
way, dear God I
hope My career don't slow, or fall to something negative Proposition and mission, is to be an executive Cool calm and collected, intellectually respected The
body to the
rap game, I
slowly dissect it I
select the
category, lyricists Ain't no changing us, dangerous serious I
know ya curious, furious with your trigga Your army's busters ball, Jam Down is paid niggaz yeah we get paid [Hook 2x]
