E-40 - Tell It Like It Is lyrics

[Verse:] How can I help you What can I do for ya Looking for that china white Girl that's so soft If I ain't got it I know where to find it If i can get it for you Boss How much you got in your budget The more you buy the less it costs I could front you a few off the side As long as your a** don't double cross You crossed a lot of racoons Get your cranium sawed off I got mouths to feed my n***a I can't afford to take no loss I can give your a** a number Its up to you to keep it quite You can't be a punk about the hustle You gotta keep the money coming I'm out here Dealing with these s**ers Stopping the fake a** busters They stab your a** in the back These brothers turn on you I know when its gonna be a shortage How long this shortage suppose to last I ain't got the weather channel To predict the forecast The plan is hustling Cause there ain't no work there Ain't no job So they stuck in playing this game And the next thing they gonna rob Bite the hand that feed em That sh** right there ain't y'all Two faced little ol' heather Working with the law Man no matter what you do for n***as They ain't never gonna be satisfied Tell it like it is My whole thing is like Why dudes be letting cats get in their ear though Im just telling it like it is I dont know what the f** Happened between ‘96 up to now n***a is hoes I'ma tell it like it is Man n***as is going out backwards man k**as are snitching my n***a Whats happening with that Tell it like it is If there was a snake it would have Bite ya See you've been following so many n***a you wouldn't even know what hit ya Now you don't know which way to look You dont really know which way to turn Got you trying to protect yourself With all the bridges you done burned You n***as cry to us nowadays You n***as feelings get hurt too easily Might as well wear a tampon might as well be a breezy A closed mouth dont get fed And a lazy hustler don't get bread Pimping i can't read minds I dont know whats in your head Everybody think they know it all Dont wanna hear nobody speak Shut the f** up and listen sometime Even if you an o.G Me personally I'm a grinder Can't let no gra** grow under my feet Dont nothing come to a sleeper but a dream A vision without a plan is just a hallucination I gotta lotta folks in the pen Programming on vacation I'm gonna give it to you straight I ain't gonna give it to you late Imma tell your a** whats real I ain't gonna tell ya nothing fake Man i got my own dreams Everybody wants me to finance theirs Tell it like it is You know who i like i like that boy 40 man He's 20 years in the game and he consistent Im just telling it like it is not all of them but a lot of these New dudes is ringtone rappers man Ima tell it like it is Fools just have one album out And act like they just it Tell it like it is Same song third verse Its from the heart it ain't rehearsed The world is full of a**ociates but very few friends Don't wanna contribute nothing But wanna help spend your ends Think before you rocking your mouth Park your tongue and lip Watching who you talkin round Never know who you're having dinner with You ain't got nothing good to say Dont say nothing at all Thats what i was told That's what i was taught when i was small A lot of these so called artists got too much time on ya hand Should be getting your money On Instead of hating on the next man Its lonely at the top But its next to crowded at the bottom That's why I always keep my pistol co*ked In case i gotta stop ‘em Stinkter(3:03) in my lap Trunk full of slap Hollering at ‘em back (3:06) Pocket full of scraps Nothing but thousand stacks I'm old school acting a fool making my Presence known I look at business face to face Dont like to talk on phones When i'm at a stop sign or a red light I leave one car Space in front of me Tell it like it is Just so i could have enough room to get up outta there Just in case someone try to pop at me or something Tell it like it is Thats how i was raised I'm still a student of the game You could learn from a baby I'ma tell it like it is Man i was hollering at my grand partner He said 40 return phone calls and you'll keep your friends Tell it like it is b**h You two faced a** motherf**ers I didn't just help create my music motherf**er I invented it Everybody wanna know what the f** mob music is n***a this is mob music n***a Poor a** motherf**ers b**h
