Z-ro - Paid My Dues lyrics
Ya call yourself a hustler Thirty-years-old and still try'na move a fifty pack Little Honda Civic with big speakers in the back Me I'm still a hustler but my product is changed I went from selling crack c**aine to uncut Ro-cain This Ro gain ain't for receding hair line That means every dollar that come in front of me goin be mine Y'all arguing over corners, I'm taking over town So whatever I hustle I could never be out of bounds Out of five conrads they say they down with me Four want me dead but don't want me to take my fortunate in the ground with me Scheming they plot but don't even know what I got Cause whatever it is I'm doing I seem to have it on lock None of my baby mommas hated to see me come up Cause I took care of all the children when the times were tough That's what the real hustler do, bring the baking home Not try'na buy rims that cost more than the car that'cha put em on Y'all fellas ain't paid no dues Y'all just hustle for shoes and 22's Not taking care of your kids, y'all out there doing it big Like you got something to prove I know you think your the man, you got a lil fifty grand And think ya doing the food But what'cha can't understand is how money flowing in and out of my hands Cause I done paid my dues I remember when my hustle was the jack you Then exchange your property for some Benjamin's and some Andrew's Hell yeah I was loving it cause I was making my cheese But it didn't feel real good once it started happening to me I was reaping what I was sowing, that was that hater-ism I hated to see my pants pockets without some paper in em What'chall know about 72 from 9 in the week's time Without working with a weapon I was winning but what was mine Serious was the game I didn't play with it Even if the clu clux clan wanted to buy it, I was on the way with it I don't smoke crack it's to easy for me to sell But you hustle like Bill Clinton, you smoke it but don't inhale I was taking money to my Annium, they used to take care of me It was time for me to take care of them Unlike a brother that come up and forget about all his folks And be the main one try'na come back and kick it when he go broke Y'all fellas ain't paid no dues Y'all just hustle for shoes and 22's Not taking care of your kids, y'all out there doing it big Like you got something to prove I know you think your the man, you got a lil fifty grand And think ya doing the food But what'cha can't understand is how money flowing and out of your hands Cause I done paid my dues Uh, It don't matter how much that, it don't matter how much for this Put it on my neck and my wrist White ones, red monkey's and a blue? meoshay? Got fifty people waiting just to do what Z-ro say King of the ghetto entertainment is the drug dealer City to city sending the story of a thug n***a My cup run it over and I'm thankful I won't do nothing hazardous just wish man go break bread with tazardous Re-vanity, lust, the main three thangs that it'll make you end up in the dust Ya seven sins that women and men commit 24/7 Ya better watch it or get 187 Most of y'all just be talking loud begging for attention I ain't even gotta say nothing than I'm a name they won't forget to mention When I take my last breath, then I'm a part of the past Bury me upside down so all of y'all can kiss my a** I'm a hustler Y'all fellas ain't paid no dues Y'all just hustle for shoes and 22's Not taking care of your kids, y'all out there doing it big Like you got something to prove I know you think your the man, you got a lil fifty grand And think ya doing the food But what'cha can't understand is how money flowing and out of your hands Cause I done paid my dues
