(Verse 1) Uhh! Uhh! Uhh! Pistol grippin' Trick flippin' Click trippin' Sound bumpin' Get your body jumpin' Like Scottie Pippen Dippin' and ridin' West Coast Eastsiders Where the blue and red flames Like cigarette lighters We street fighters Like the video game No pity, no shame An' we just tell the police Any ol' thang and remain silent Never nonviolent Once you aggress God bless Dr. King, but nigga We gon' make a mess An' you need stress Success is the best revenge I don't get into shit Unless the benefit is friends To be or not to be? Took me a minute to see That ain't the question The question is What's in it for me? Ain't nuthin' free You got to make it worth my while I never trust a smilin' face Cause they just refiled my case To go to trail The words cut like a knife I'm out for money, luxury Good homes and friendships In all walks of life, nigga
(Chorus) Benefits Spending chips and bending whips Uhh! To make my life less complicated Benefits Spending chips and bending whips Cause for my time, I got to be compensated Benefits Spending chips and bending whips Uhh! To make my life less complicated I'm out for benefits Spending chips and bending whips Cause for my time, I got to be compensated
(Verse 2) So what do you go to offer This black Jimmy Hofa Never raise your voice Above mine Nigga, always speak softer Show respect I stay on deck Mothafuckers Steadying hittin' licks On this all day suckers I don't eva put all my eggs in one basket From the craddle to the casket My game is fantastic Hi Mom! Shit! I've been a Vet' Fuck Vietnam I'm on the internet W-A-T-T-S dot com And if I'm not bombing Ain't none of y'all shit It's all politics anyway So I take what I can get Secure some benefit while I'm living Islam driven' So everyday to me it's Christmas and Thanksgiving You got to be bringing something to my table (fo' sho) For just some Eastside fable I'm ready bullet and able Cause ain't no record label Ever did jack for me I speak with clarity Fuck charity, I don't rap for free
(Chorus) I'm out for benefits Spending chips and bending whips To make my life less complicated Benefits Spending chips and bending whips Cause for my time, I got to be compensated Benefits Spending chips and bending whips Uhh! To make my life less complicated Benefits Spending chips and bending whips Cause for my time, I got to be compensated
(Verse 3) Let me hold something Fold something Rock something Roll something I beat a nigga like he stole something Separate the pro's from the con's Ho's from the Don's Those from the John's ? from the time Golds from the grimes I spend a grip but won't give snitches My legal tender "I'm here" Cause membership has its priviledges And I'm a life time cardholder So I'mma tell you new recruits You better write rhymes hard, soldiers I'm a officer but not a gentleman Out of town swerbing in a rental van With a health and dental plan Because I can, Oh! yes I can, Kam You down to sleep like the sandman For fucking with my fan van So scram If you ain't about the real All I'm concern with is What the fuck, Kam is getting out the deal Got mass appeal Give 'em something they could feel And while this niggas riding shotgun I'm behind the wheel
(Chorus) Benefits Spending chips and bending whips To make my life less complicated I'm out for benefits Spending chips and bending whips Cause for my time I got to be compensated Benefits Spending chips and bending whips Uhh! To make my life less complicated I'm out for benefits Spending chips and bending whips Cause for my time I got to be compensated
