[Verse 1] I'm Past Due and tired of being the guy on deck I'm here to collect my money like the IRS I've never been the type to bite my lip I'm in a dog fight something like Michael Vick This ain't folk that are trying to hold me down See me in the spot and throw me phony pounds You might have known me then, but you don't know me now Still in the whip, yeah 96 homeward bound You can either roll with me or stay behind Don't make me send you back to Rehab like Amy Wine Let me paint you a picture with my frame of mind It's something too vivid for a lazy eye I'm on my daily grind getting up with the sun Making something out of nothing watch me double it up I'm on a mission, as long as my heart has a beat There ain't no quitting, kinda like the Spartans of Greece I'm the Chief [Hook] And I hear them hating on me Like I care, cause I'm still the chief And I hear them hating on me Like I care, cause I'm still the chief [Verse 2] I'm a well known mic ripper, hustling dreams Work the graveyard night shift, I'm up with the fiends I've been creeping all my gum up like the boys from the LAN Waiting for the right time like them boys in the van Old habits Die Hard like John McClane These rappers got cold feet like hockey skates You better be ready to take a charge blocking the lane Or you gonna suddenly drop like the stock exchange Who's better than me? Come on I'm taking a vote You better get your ouija boards, cause you're chasing some ghosts I'm serving up real life, I hope you're taking your dose Quit writing raps about your ice, when you're blatantly broke Come on, you ain't a thug, and you don't rock llello Probably catch you at a cuddle party with Scott Baio And I don't care if you impressed or if you disgusted I'm like Kanye West, you can't tell me nothing [Hook] And I hear them hating on me Like I care, cause I'm still the chief And I hear them hating on me Like I care, cause I'm still the chief [Verse 3] Kids listen, I ain't only after the green Gil Grissom, how I'm coming back to the scene They all miss me, well that's what I heard they say Well here's another cla**ic record that was worth the wait Your boy Chief keep it cracking like thumbs on blunts G'ed up from the feet up in some [?] But I forgot who I was like Jason Bourne Like all I did was d** and chase them broads Here's a rude awakening so sound the alarm Dude got no faking them round of applause They say cause 'dime cold signed me, I got where I'm at But either way that's family, I'm still a monster on tracks You can't deny a man, what he was destined to take I sit and reminisce talking like remember the days When I was rapping on headphones, recording on tapes Now I'm traveling performing, getting boarded on planes And you ain't [Hook] And I hear them hating on me Like I care, cause I'm still the chief And I hear them hating on me Like I care, cause I'm still the chief
