chicas champagne flash and in a dash
i came out on top with profits from the consignment stash
in my hand i grip that cold hard cash
that green paper proof of my labor
that hustling game has all along been my chosen major
like gambling with my life i doubled up on chances
i've come a long way from resorting to pay day advances
imma win regardless cus i refuse to be a failure
and in this day and age failure is not an option
thats why i travel with product as if it were an auction
this is thought put to action with a deadline for my goals
and i'll deal with saints and lost souls
to me its all the same a simple matter of respect
make moves now so as an old man i'll hold no regrests
a roof over my head and three meals to boot
like my man biggie said, "Gimme the loot, gimme the loot!"

gotta be careful, might crash and burn
the streests hold many lessons for a hustler to learn
once the streets hold you hostage you better not squirm
a made man with a method to my madness
up on game with an ill mind frame aiming to be the baddest
thats why when in the streets i maintain my balance
i don't let my lifestyle detertmine my infinite talents
but the streets have ears mouth and eyes
and if youre not careful the streets will plot your demise
some even get caught slipping with their eyes on the prize
so if you get got don't let it come as a surprise
we're all born to die its how we live that matters
you've gotta figure out lifes hidden patterns
even if you live life plush and with mad stee
in the end big homie we all D-I-E

chicas champagne flash they dont last,
whats left for the present and the future
can just as easily be tangled in the past
whatchu gone do when they repo all that you've amased
life in the fast lane and just as easily you c.r.a.s.h.
six feet under wondering how to ressurect
why life played you dirty when you did everything correct
pause for a minute give yourself time to reflect
gotta look at the bigger picture cant just focus on the check
while you're counting all the zeros someone
can just as easily put the strap to your neck
thats all she wrote, life is not always what you expect
if there's one thing i've come to bare witness is
the guys that last in this business,
are the guys who fly straight. Low-key, quiet
so when given this rule one best know how to apply it
