Too $hort (too Short) - We Are the Pioneers lyrics

[Chorus 4X] (We are…we are…we are the pioneers We are the pioneers) [Verse 1: E-40] UH! Hustling nonstop From a relish jar to a soup pot From the bottom to the top Fans all over the world, signing autographs for cops Something I wouldn't have did if it was 24 years ago (What about now?) But now I'm legit though, uh No more pushing cauliflower Just microphone powder Yowder, clam chowder, goop You in the red, we in the black like a suit Pockets obese, you famine, we feast Mine's paid for, yours is a lease (UH!) (What is you?) We are the pioneers (How long you been doing it?) We been doing this sh** for years Give us our ‘speck My n***a, you ain't never seen a blue check [Chorus] [Verse 2: Too $hort] It can't be disputed You know where it started E-40 and $hort Dog We keep making that hard sh** It's been a long time Ever since you was a young one And we still spittin' rhymes I raised you like my own son Call me pop, but I'm not a pop star One-hit wonders never really got far I don't know why you talk smack You was famous for a while but you ain't ever coming back You ask me, you never could rap You look real corny, all the girls called you wack We in the room now, you feel real small Just look at all these plaques on the walls, b**h (b*atch!) [Chorus] [Verse 3] [E-40] Earl and Todd will never play out or fall out, loyalty You're listening to West Coast royalty It wasn't an accident, we ain't clumsy We paved the way, taught you how to get independent money Grew up on Magic Mike and Calvin T From the Rich, shoutout to $hort and Freddie B On my list is the greatest rappers to emcee You's a b**h if you don't recognize me b*atch! [Too $hort] I'm with some hoes, and all the pimps see me Every day in the street, I'm not on MTV It's a special, original programming The History Channel is E-40 and $hort jammin' Tune in, you just might learn something ‘Cause I'm shooting off s**m, nuttin' I'm just planting new seeds Trying to grow some more trees so I could smoke a lot of weed b*tch! [Chorus]
