Thug Mentality 1999 Lyrics - 1999
Intro
The world, the world, the world, is very different now...
-refrain-
Everybody wants some paper (i want some) niggas fightin' over paper (i know you
Want some)
And when you die, i can bet you (you will die) you died tryin' to get some
Paper
(i can bet you will die) shame, shame...
Krayzie
Ain't life a fucked up game with all the green? mighty, mighty dollar bill y'all
(bill y'all) have you
Sinnin'/ eventually in a coffin one day/ but you can't knock the hustle; niggas
Got bills to pay
Struggle and strive/ i'm tryin' to stay alive, but in the meantime i'm a get
Mine/ everything'll be fine
When i can eat and get high/ i mean eat when i want to/ purchase some weed and
Have a place to
P.o.d. when i want to/ but tryin' to make the paper ain't the only worry/ i got
To keep my glock
Cocked; niggas be plottin' on me, tryin' to hurt me/ so i stop, and nigga,
"what's up? i'm in a hurry"
No time for conversations with niggas that's thinkin' to murder me/ but i pin
'em everytime(everytime)
Time after time they try, but you can be deceased/ no more, your life/ friends
Is usually your foes
You know you're just like everybody/ i trust nobody
Cuz everybody want the paper
-refrain-
Money, money, money...make your, make your, cash flow...
Krayzie
A nigga be thinkin'; ain't it funny sometimes that you can be quick to do a
Crime; you come up
And get robbed and shot, but you got the same job? tricky business/ sometimes
You get your wig
Split/ but, shit, for the cheddar, i guess we just be willing to risk it "this
Is a stick up. give up the
Cash, your wallet, purse" nigga dash/ you turn around; i'm puttin a bullet up in
Your ass
Desperate-ass niggas don't play/ me and my niggas ain't ate all day/ and you can
Go to the grave for meal plate
Niggas play dirty cuz we out here hungry/ we just want a meal on the table
And a meal in the pocket/ you die if you cannot pay for your life/ niggas is
Frantic
And that's why (that's why, that's why, that's why...)
-refrain-
Big hundred dollar bills, y'all...would you kill for them hundred dollar bills,
Y'all?
Would you kill? would you kill? would you kill for them hundred dollar bills
Y'all?
-refrain-
Better make your cash flow (cash flow, cash flow)
Nigga better make your cash flow/ nigga make your money, money, man
Better hustle up and make your cash flow...fuck being poor.
