getting money

Tupac Shakur

Get Money Nigga
Dedicate this one to all the Hustlas
That get up every morning and put there work in

I see You Boy
I m up before the sunrise, first to hit the block.
Little bad mothafucka with a pocket full of rocks.
And I m totin these thangs, get my skinny little ass kicked.
And niggas laugh, til tha first mothafucka got blasted.
I put the nigga in his casket,
Now they coverin the bastard in plastic.
I smoke blunts on a regular fuck when it counts.
I m tryin to make a million dollars outta quarter ounce.
And get ghost on the five-o, fuck them hos.
Got a 45 screamin of survival.
Hey nigga can I lay low, cook some yay-yo.
Hollar Five-O when I say so.
Don t want to go to the pen, I m hittin fences.
Narcs on a nigga s back, missin me by inches.
And they say how do you survive weighin 155
In a city where the little niggas die?
Tell Mama don t cry.
Cuz even If they kill me
They can never take the life of a real G
I m Getting Money
Still on parole and I m the first nigga servin
pour some liquor on the curb for my niggas that deserve it.
But if I want to make a million, gotta stay dealin .
It s kinda boomin i think today I ll make a killin .
Dressin down like a dirty, but only on the block.
It s a clever disguise to keep me runnin from the cops.
Ha, I m gettin high. I think I ll die if I don t get no ends.
I m in a bucket with em ridin it like it s a Benz.
I hate to stip let my music bump,
Drinkin liquor, and I m lookin for a bitch to fuck.
Rather die makin money than live poor and legal
As I slang another ounce, I wish it was a kilo.
A need money in a major way.
Time to fuck my Girl, She s getten paid
I live a thuglife and let the money come to me
Cuz they can never take the game from a young G
Damned if I don t, and damned if a nigga do.
Now watch a young mothafucka pull a trigga just to RAISE UP!
But don t let them see you cry, dry your eyes
Young nigga time to do or die.
I pack a pistol in my pocket,
Ready on my block.
Ain t no time for a nigga to even cock shit.
And now they see that mothafucka beat pain,
At point blank range cause he slept on the game.
Ain t a damned thing changed
Shakin the dice, now roll em,
If you can t stand pain better hold em.
Cause ain t no tellin what you might roll.
You might fold catch AIDS from a slight cold.
Better live your life to the fullest,
Be quick to kill a fool, got a pistol mothafucka better pull it.
And even when they kill me,
they can never take the life of a young G.
