This def beat that I put together I wanna hear some of them[00:00:22]
Def rhymes know what I'm sayin' and together we can get[00:00:25]
Paid in full[00:00:28]
Thinkin' of a master plan[00:00:49]
Cuz ain't nuthin' but sweat inside my hand[00:00:51]
So I dig into my pocket all my money is spent[00:00:53]
So I dig deeper but still comin' up with lint[00:00:56]
So I start my mission leave my residence[00:00:58]
Thinkin' how could I get some dead presidents[00:01:00]
I need money I used to be a stick up kid[00:01:02]
So I think of all the devious things I did[00:01:05]
I used to roll up this is a hold up ain't nuthin' funny[00:01:08]
Stop smiling be still don't nuthin' move but the money[00:01:10]
But now I learned to earn cos I'm righteous[00:01:12]
I feel great so maybe I might just[00:01:15]
Search for a 9 to 5 if I strive[00:01:18]
Then maybe I'll stay alive[00:01:20]
So I walk up the street whistlin' this[00:01:22]
Feelin' out of place cos man do I miss[00:01:25]
A pen and a paper a stereo a tape of[00:01:27]
Me and eric b and a nice big plate of[00:01:30]
Fish which is my favorite dish[00:01:32]
But without no money it's still a wish[00:01:34]
Cos I don't like to dream about gettin' paid[00:01:37]
So I dig into the books of the rhymes that I made[00:01:39]
To now test to see if I got pull[00:01:42]
Hit the studio cos I'm paid in full[00:01:45]

You go to your girl house and I'll go to mine[00:01:51]

Cause it took us too long to do this album[00:01:54]
Yo I hear what you're saying[00:01:57]

And count our money[00:02:00]
