Got To Get It

I gota get this money man I gota get this paper now ,

I got watch my back .

Cuz these haters are trying to take me down,

I gota ride I gota fly.

they keep getting close to me,

Cuz in there eyes.

The sky is where I'm suppose to be.

I grew up with no money my family was broke as s***. my mother was on welfare,

and my father

well he didn't exist.

More or less,

Growing up as hard as hell,

and roaches came with the life I was living,

every night

had to sleep with the lights on in the kitchen,

I was a young dude forced to play to hand i was dealt. when it came to punishment,

my hand was the only hand that I felt.

government cheese came in blocks,

I wasn't proud of those food coupons,

I remember when I started 8th grade

And graduated with the same shoes on

but I didn't care

I held my head high and kept a smile on my face.

the only people I ain't hang around.

were the ones who smiled in my face.

my attire was out of style, so no one really like the kid. now my entire attire got a style.

now everybody likes the kid,

growing up recognition was hard to get,

I spent half of my life

just trying to figure out who my father is.

I gota get this money man I gota get this paper now

I gota watch my back

Cuz the haters trying to take me down

I gota ride I gota fly.

They keep getting close to me,

Cuz in there eyes.

The sky is where I'm suppose to be.

There's a thin line between love and hate, hate and love. I'm a grind to the day that I face a judge. Lots of people act like they hate the buzz. Until their face is near that plate, about to taste the drugs.I ain't never had a father I could really call my own. or a roof above my head I could really call a home. a lot of people faking like they spoon wasn't plastic, like them dishes in the sink,they were eating food off wasn't plastic .straigt facts, so many people nowadays bait traps.nothing I shoot ricochets, im the opposite of a rat.i ain't got shit to say.

I gota get this money man I gota get this paper now.
