Joey Fatts - Emeritus lyrics

[Verse 1] Smoking to help with this paranoia Plotting hard, sh**, I gotta get this bread So we on the block, n***as grinding 'round the clock ‘Cause I ain't got a f**ing place to lay my head I got a couple ounces, tryin' to stay up out the feds I got a couple foes that would love to see me dead so I stash chrome And that b**h ready to blow like a saxophone Until you leave them sacks alone I'm here to ransack your home I want it all, nice j**elry and exotic cars sh**, I pray to God but till that come, I'm moving hard Always plot and scheme ‘cause we got dreams of living large Never play ball but I'm the hood shooting guard Prison calls from my n***as upstate Screaming, "f** the DEA," I hope to see y'all one day Yeah we straight, n***as still trapping on the one way With the seven, turn a heated n***a to a cold case [Hook] Should be in school, instead we on the block Should wanna be a lawyer but instead we want a drop Can't get a nine to five, so we slinging rocks A couple ounces and a Glock and my n***as is all I got Should be in school, instead we on the block Should wanna be a lawyer but instead we want a drop Can't get a nine to five, so we slinging rocks A couple ounces and a Glock and my n***as is all I got [Verse 2] Time is money, n***a, so pay attention Certified in these streets, you n***as paid admission Youngins chopping rocks before they learn to write a sentence I can't complain, I'm gettin' change and this the life I'm given I be chillin', sippin', with one to five b**hes Now I'm really pitchin', leave that to my side women A fo' fo' on vogues so now a n***a tippin' 187 with the paper, tryin' to make a k**in' They tell me I'm the next big thing I'm just excited that I get to think with big things Is it Versace or the mink under Cuban links? b**hes f**ing with me don't even get to greet Stand up guy, n***a, take a seat Before these shells release and put holes in your fleece Gangsta, like Chucks and dickies with a crease All my n***as in the streets, my n***a, to say the least, what's up? [Hook] Should be in school, instead we on the block Should wanna be a lawyer but instead we want a drop Can't get a nine to five, so we slinging rocks A couple ounces and a Glock and my n***as is all I got Should be in school, instead we on the block Should wanna be a lawyer but instead we want a drop Can't get a nine to five, so we slinging rocks A couple ounces and a Glock and my n***as is all I got
