| [00:28.26] |
Paid in full |
| [00:29.04] |
|
| [00:49.08] |
Thinkin' of a master plan |
| [00:50.47] |
|
| [00:51.10] |
Cuz ain't nuthin' but sweat inside my hand |
| [00:53.57] |
So I dig into my pocket all my money is spent |
| [00:56.11] |
So I dig deeper but still comin' up with lint |
| [00:58.41] |
So I start my mission leave my residence |
| [01:00.83] |
Thinkin' how could I get some dead presidents |
| [01:02.94] |
I need money I used to be a stick up kid |
| [01:05.72] |
So I think of all the devious things I did |
| [01:08.15] |
I used to roll up this is a hold up ain't nuthin' funny |
| [01:10.69] |
Stop smiling be still don't nuthin' move but the money |
| [01:12.98] |
But now I learned to earn cos I'm righteous |
| [01:15.34] |
|
| [01:15.87] |
I feel great so maybe I might just |
| [01:18.24] |
Search for a 9 to 5 if I strive |
| [01:20.99] |
Then maybe I'll stay alive |
| [01:22.19] |
So I walk up the street whistlin' this |
| [01:24.91] |
|
| [01:25.42] |
Feelin' out of place cos man do I miss |
| [01:27.72] |
A pen and a paper a stereo a tape of |
| [01:30.15] |
Me and eric b and a nice big plate of |
| [01:32.70] |
Fish which is my favorite dish |
| [01:34.90] |
But without no money it's still a wish |
| [01:37.32] |
Cos I don't like to dream about gettin' paid |
| [01:39.72] |
So I dig into the books of the rhymes that I made |
| [01:42.57] |
To now test to see if I got pull |
| [01:44.41] |
