Uh huh, uh, yeah, ya know, it's the boy Wiz
Sometimes I gotta sit back and think, ya know
The audacity I have for these n***as man, ya know
But you know I just gotta focus on the positive, ya know
Cuz' the negative ain't gonna do nothin' but, you know what I'm sayin'
Bring me down, and I've worked too hard to get where I'm at
I can guarantee you one thing, I ain't going nowhere
Im'a be right here baby, 412, uh huh, and this the Prince, yeah, yeah
Homie we came up, n***as hatin' cuz not havin' paper just ain't us
Take it from me, sh** for free, nobody gave us
Tired of strugglin' so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
[x4]
Uh, look homie I'm from the ill-gritty, city where they k** plenty
Lost some n***as along the way, some of em' still wit' me
So why don't ya'll come through, while the boys show you
How we livin' in the 412
Where young n***as got no intentions of workin' jobs
Cookin' that raw is they definition of workin' hard
Chop it, bag it, hit the block and work it hard
Tired of strugglin', so we started hustlin'
Gotta bring that money in, didn't wanna run the streets
But lookin' at an empty plate'll make a n***a wanna eat
And get up on his feet, hustlin' and scramblin'
A [?] will let the cold world make a man of him
And fam listen, pay attention to who you 'round
Another man can never pull you up, but he can pull you down
This somethin' every real n***a can feel here
They hate me for the fact that I'm still here
Homie we came up, n***as hatin' cuz not havin' paper just ain't us
Take it from me, sh** for free, nobody gave us
Tired of strugglin' so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
[x4]
Yo, some say I mention d** in every one of my songs
Not knowin' you ain't gotta be doin' wrong to get your hustle on
Long as you're goin' hard, I was taught, growin' up in Pittsburgh
sh** it means, gettin' cake by any means
n***as on that rap sh**, n***as on that crack sh**
Most n***as will clap quick, end up on your back split
Some n***as will 9 to 5, and never make a pack flip
Tryin' to get that cheese, some n***as end up on that rat sh**
'Round here that's how you get sent into a back-flip
Nothin' else to be said, my n***as try and see bread
Tired of them stomach pains, n***as try and keep fed
Fillin' up your pipe veins, green for the weed-head
City full of pipe-dreams, believe me I been sold those
Heavy chronic habit, we gon' need the whole zone
I stay higher than the Ozone Layer
I'm from the Burgh, n***a don't go there
Homie we came up, n***as hatin' cuz not havin' paper just ain't us
Take it from me, sh** for free, nobody gave us
Tired of strugglin' so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
[x4]
I never backed or run away, slacked for one day
Had somethin' on my chest, and held back what I wanna say
That's how I wasn't raised, manned up quicker
The young boy grew up into a stand up n***a
f** you pay me, I demand them figures
I'm gettin' mine shorty, we young n***as on the rise, on the grind shorty
Had enough of the lies, jealous n***as I despise, look in my eyes
Homie we came up, n***as hatin' cuz not havin' paper just ain't us
Take it from me, sh** for free, nobody gave us
Tired of strugglin' so we hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
Hustle to get the change up, yeah, yeah
