| Say, this is the realist shit | |
| I ever wrote or | |
| I saidWake up with it everyday and take it with me to bed | |
| Hurting my heart and hanging over my head' | |
| Bout the realest nigga these | |
| Texas streets ever bred | |
| C L Butler better known as | |
| Chad or Pimp | |
| CThe closest homeboy that | |
| I ever had | |
| Now when we first met, we wasn't on the same page | |
| From pettiness understandings that got cleared up with age | |
| Two young boys who was ready to mash | |
| Put P A on the map and maybe make a little cash | |
| Jumped down with | |
| Big Tyme, put down a few songs | |
| Everybody co-signed saying that we could do no wrong | |
| Then hit the streets with a big ass bang | |
| Them gangsta ass rhymes with that country ass twang | |
| Dropped, "Tell Me Something Good" took off and went live | |
| Shit, next thing you know we was signing to | |
| JiveDropped, "Too Hard to Swallow" "A Pocket Full of Stones" | |
| Put the remix on "Menace" shit we had it going on | |
| Got, love in the streets and played on the air | |
| But the homey putting us out, wasn't playing too fair | |
| Had to separate ourself, bring in a new team | |
| But sometimes the other side ain't always what it seems | |
| We dropped "Super Tight" a album full of killer flows | |
| But then we got caught up with the drugs and the hoes | |
| We didn't realize what was happening on the real | |
| And new management was cutting back room deals | |
| Hiding different money and concealing the price | |
| He had us doing all the work but was keeping the biggest slice | |
| Took a while to catch on, to what homey was doing | |
| But by the time we did, all the paperwork was in ruins | |
| Nigga kept all the receipts so we couldn't file taxes | |
| The next thing you know, | |
| IRS hitting us with axes | |
| Pimp you owe seven figures, | |
| Bun you owe six | |
| Better get your paper together, get this shit fixed | |
| Remixed the management team and tried it ourself | |
| Cussed out the | |
| GM, almost got put on the shelf | |
| Fuck it, dropped "Ridin' Dirty" instant classic in the | |
| SouthReclaimed the southern title, shut everybody's mouth | |
| Got some clout in the game, boys calling us the greatest | |
| But meanwhile me and | |
| Pimp is still ducking haters | |
| The old manager calling and say he fina' sue | |
| And put a padlock on the everything we trying to do | |
| Put a call out to the | |
| Prince, this nigga still hating | |
| We got heat for the streets, and we can't keep the people waiting | |
| He made a call to [Incomprehensible] and folks, telling the man | |
| You gotta cut | |
| UGK some slack understand | |
| Young Pimp got the plan, | |
| Bun got the drawl | |
| Rap-A-Lot had our back and we just waiting on | |
| JiveWe got the big bosses on the same page | |
| So me and young | |
| Pimp went hit 'em from center stage | |
| Next thing you know we got this call from the | |
| N.Y.It's Jay- | |
| Z saying y'all niggaz getting fly | |
| He doing "Volume 3" and got a track from | |
| TimbAnd wondered could some trill niggaz rock it with him | |
| Shit big Bun was all for it, but | |
| Pimp wasn't sure | |
| But "Big Pimpin" hit 'em 187- | |
| PureNumber one song on every station you turn on | |
| MTV and BE | |
| T we getting our burn on | |
| Grammy nominated can't believe that we made it | |
| And we got a call from | |
| Jive that left us all faded | |
| And it stated, that due to the success of the track | |
| We here at | |
| Jive records, would like to piggy back | |
| Get another beat from | |
| Timb, then get a verse from | |
| JayLet Hype shoot the video and we'll be on the way | |
| Shit it sounded okay, but me | |
| I had to ask | |
| If we don't do | |
| Big Pimpin 2, would you still put us on blast | |
| A song like that might take a nigga to the top | |
| But my true fan base, might think a nigga flop | |
| They got mad and put niggaz on hold | |
| For damn near a year till the buzz got cold | |
| So we said fuck 'em and went back to the basics | |
| Trying to find ways to get the fuck up out the matrix | |
| We put "Dirty Money" together and it was aces | |
| But that's around the time that | |
| Pimp caught two cases | |
| He got probation, said, "Fuck you hoes" | |
| We finish the album, got ready to do a couple shows | |
| And then he violated, one month before we dropped | |
| And shit just got put on hold or fucking stopped | |
| Now 30 days done, we back to the nitty-gritty | |
| Album got released, big showdown in | |
| Chocolate | |
| CityNiggaz with masks on, vests and all black | |
| It's Christmas 2000 and 1, bitch we was all that | |
| Strongest on the block, nobody could budge | |
| And then he violated, now we right back before the judge | |
| They calling him a nuisance, put my dog behind a fence | |
| It was January 28th, he ain't been home since | |
| Threw a nigga through a loop and caught me in the crosses | |
| Standing cold, | |
| CEO, now I'm the fucking boss | |
| Had the devil on my back, got to drinking and drugging | |
| Had to make a choice, get back to rapping or thugging | |
| So I walked into my bedroom, got down on my knees | |
| Put my hands together and | |
| I prayed Lord please | |
| Let me get past this bridge over water that's trouble | |
| And get back up on my grind on the double | |
| He said son don't worry 'cause it's not really hard as it seem | |
| And I can turn your nightmares back into dreams | |
| You just got to stay true to yourself and succeed | |
| Then push away from the devil and get closer to me | |
| And every since that night man | |
| I promise | |
| I been on it | |
| Giving that killer flow to anybody who want it | |
| Pimp the pen like never before, | |
| I'm breaking 'em | |
| GNot to mention | |
| I got the world screaming free | |
| Pimp CSo soon as you make parole and they open the doors | |
| You ain't gotta worry about nothing, the world is yours | |
| Ain't no mo' struggles my nigga and no mo' stripe | |
| I kept it real because to me it's | |
| UGK for life |
