Uh, uh, yeah, ya-yeahReady, ready, ready, ready, uh[Hook]Now everybody wants to be rich (Yeah)Nobody wants to be poor (Uh huh)Every day ya hope ya hit the lotto (Uh)So you don't have to slave no more (Yeah, yeah)In the hood we flip things to them fiends (Uh huh)Cause even hood niggas got dream (Yeah)Every day we get caught up in the struggle (Uh)So we can live life, love, and bubble[Verse 1]Some jump up in the music game to get the greenSome do the acting thing to blow up on the movie screenSome play ball hope they're drafted by a pro teamSome say "man I'ma play the hood and serve the fiends"Some go to school and after that do that college thingSome drop out, get high, play the hood and bangSome do the Wall Street, investors, stocks and bondsSome don't do shit and still home chilin' with their momsSome move faster, get their Master'sDoctors, lawyers, self-employorsSome do Mickey-D's or some food spotsSome be radio jocks and slice niggas at barber shopsYou got blue-collar cats, you got white-collar catsYou got no-collar cats tryin' to stack a stackYou got cats who spend all day sippin'And you got cats who just layin' back pimpin'[Hook][Verse 2]Now you got some who play the store and boost gearAnd you got some who hustle heads doin' hereAnd you got some who secretary, bank tellersAnd you got some who just look good for they fellasYou got some who's independent, doin' they thing nowAnd you got some who wanna be they just don't know howYou got some who babysit, daycare and shitAnd you got some who hate they job and wanna quitYou got some who housewives, wanna stay at homeAnd you got some who's big bosses like Sylvia RomeYou got some who shake for dollars, slide down a poleAnd you got some who stressed, playin' the mommy-daddy roleYou got some who spend their whole life savin'You got some who's lookin' for that rest havenAnd you got some who tell that boss to kiss they assAnd you got some who think makin' sellin' ends[Hook][Verse 3]Somebody tried to tell you Heaven or Hell is when ya dieGot chu' guessin' there's a better place up in the skySee I see Heaven and Hell right here on this planet EarthBut mostly Hell ever since my first day of birthI've seen Heaven from a distance, use my persistanceOvercome resistance and get me someAin't no money trees sittin' outside ya front doorGet up and handle yours if ya tired of bein' poor[Hook x2]
