Get Paid
Napolean
Yeah, from the bottom
For the depths, for the bottom
We come from there, but we still here
We still breath, so long as we got air in these lungs
We gonna get something, no matter how, no matter what
Listen
Verse 1 by Young Noble
Yo, my whole block family, we all argue and fight
But if you not family, keep talkinâ aiight?
Will you get them Nikes? Oh you like them yeah?
They look good on me, you wanna cop a pair
Though it takes some time, we still love everybody
Them like my thug sisters, so I'm fuckinâ every mommy
Everybody know my face, everybody know my name
As I walk through I heard em sayinâ "Noble do his thing"
I'm flowinâ through this game like I'm slidinâ on ice
Brought these niggas insane like I'm slidinâ in dice
Applyinâ the wife, but ain't nobody dyinâ tonight
We fryinâ the rice, dinner on the steps tonight
I bet your life I just might stretch your wife
Stretch your dime, stretch your doe, and stretch your time
It might sound short, then I'll stretch the rhyme
Nothinâ but another day, know I ain't gonna lie
Chorus by TQ
I still remember when a nigga didn't have a thang
Curb surfinâ on the corner each and every day (every day)
For all the people âcause I never find a better way
Ain't gonna stop me from hittinâ when I see some paper (I'm gettinâ it
nigga)
Somebody tell me what's the price for a better day
But it don't matter, I'm gonna get mine anyway
But in the scene It's like I still hear my feet the same
Can we get paid? just wanna get paid
Verse 2 by EDI Mean
Man I wasn't born with it
But I'm gonna get it
Let it be known I'm on a mission
From boss livinâ, no bullshittin'
And I don't sit around niggas who don't want nothinâ
And I don't kick it with these bitches who always want somethinâ
I'm my own man, own plan, been that way
Lost my father, shit got harder man, and since that day
I never ever really trust the world again
Age ten, feel frustration
No patience when it all forego
Fuck takinâ it slow
I'd rather take it and blow
I still roll daily
Only stoppinâ for my babies
I'm a hard luck nigga
Keep your guard up nigga
Large cut getta
I gotta have my piece
I'll chop it up with ya man
But I gotta have my piece
You cannot be mad at me
I'm game tight on all sides
Obstacles cannot damage my pride
I manage to ride, but be it wasn't easy
Young struggla, livinâ for the love of us
Outlaw
Chorus
Verse 3 by Kastro
I'm bluntinâ, so I'm strapped, and I'm starred and cautious
Ain't nothinâ but a day at the office
I stand alone so I cut my losses
And sometimes I drink until I feel nauseous (ha)
It's not easy, believe me, it's no fun
Still I chase my paper, till I can't run
And I was still just a kid till I had one
If not for bad luck, I probably wouldn't have nothinâ
It's two G's and I just can't quit yet
Through all they mind so I just can't sit back
I stand strong so you know I don't get checked
The born Outlaw so you know I ain't wit' that
My younger days in the day tryna figure out
A million ways to get paid in a bigger amount
I ain't a mystery, it's elementary
Cash rules, and that's the way it was meant to be
Verse 4 by Napolean
(?) Eat now, I'm kinda low in the pockets
House lookinâ like shit, volts is climbinâ out the sockets
But that's how it is in twenty-three a.m.
Brick City, N-J
Besides Cali, it's the home of the A-K
I'm paid to roll, was raised too low
But at least in my heart, I've always felt alone
I stayed strong through all the times I supposed to
I pray to God daily, you barely when you supposed to
Close to the money âcause it's close to my heart
In my life, death ain't nothinâ but a walk in the park
Hard times gettinâ sweeter now
I guess Allah must have blessed us âcause we eatinâ now
Come on
Verse 5 by Young Noble
Reminiscinâ of the days we was broke man (broke man)
We still missinâ tryinâ to get it, it's a sure thang (sure thang)
The forecast for today said it's gonna rain (gonna rain)
(TQ: Can I get paid)
Heat showers on the block, still we gonna hang (gonna hang)
Live yours, and you know I'm tryinâ to live mine (live mine)
Get yours, âcause I ain't tryinâ to give mine (give mine)
Everybody cominâ out at the same time (same time)
Nothinâ but another day, know I can't lie
(TQ: Can I get paid)
Reminiscinâ of the days we was broke man (broke man)
Heat showers on the block, still we gonna hang (still we gonna hang)
(TQ: Can I get paid)
