[Notorious B.I.G. sample:] "I grew up a fucking screw-upGot introduced to the game, to the game then fucking blew up"
[Intro: Ludacris speaking over B.I.G. sample repeated]Yeah! Dedicated to all my hustlers that's a product of they environmentWhether getting money legally or ILLEGALLYWe gotta do what we gotta do to survive man!Yeah! Grew up a screw up babyGot introduced to the game, I ain't took a breath yetLet's go!
[Ludacris]Ever since I was an embryo, waiting to shape up and ship outSomething in my brain said, "Wake up and kick out!"Roberta and Wayne stayed up and flipped outCause when I came I was draped up and dripped outSnip the umbilical, spit the government chip outPeace up, A-Town gone and then I dipped outAnd oh my gosh, the Osh Kosh was picked outI slipped in, even my baby stroller was tricked outSomebody get him, the lil' nigga's out of controlPut a lil' bit of rum in my bottle I'll dream about diamonds and gold Gold goldto grow from an infant to toddler was effervescentThe essence of adolescence got my body feeling fresh'nfresh'n fresh'n, and it was a blessing to rhyme and start rappingI was the best in my section with flows hard than erectionsStill the best but now I'm grown with more range than a texanAnd I'm a heavyweight you niggas is lighter than my complexion
[Chorus: Notorious B.I.G. sample variations repeat 4X]
[Young Jeezy]AyyyyY'all already know what it isI'ma tell you niggaC.T., know what it is, 'bout 17-5
Homey fronted me a sip, shit I made it a birdThat's seventeen and a half, all I need is the wordSay the, ice is cool but them pots is hotYou better cook slow but that money come fastI got what you need I hope you brought all the cashYou know the kid pimping all over the worldA hundred carats got me all over your girlYEAHHHHHHHHHHH, five freaks and my Gucci duffle bagA corporate thug I run with a Playaz CircleI got a Field Mob that'll +Disturb+ your +Peace+Blowing Sean Jay, all we do is smokeFinish counting my bread and I was getting some headWhat's up?
[Chorus]
[Ludacris]I'ma be all the way real with cha, lookWhen I came into the game they ain't do nothing but doubt meNow the whole game's changed and it ain't nothing without mePicking up my sloppy seconds as they reach for the crownOnly reason you on that song is cause I turned that downI went from Hot Wheels to big wheels, Hyundais to BentleysAnd five course meals, no more Popeye's and Blimpie'sFrom alright to handsome, from one room to mansionsFrom hanging on the block to throwing parties in the HamptonsFrom, broke as a joke to rich as a bitch, I bought aplane and a boat and six other whips, no MARTAFrom dice on the curb to stacking up chips, but harderFrom birds on my nerves to chicks on my DICK! Guard your women dawg I went from ashy to classyWent from a, kiss on the cheek to doing the nastyReach your hand up in the air and you can play with the starsIt's not the hand that you're dealt but how you're playing your cardsBoyyy!
[Chorus]

[Verse 1]Things ain't always what they seem or cracked up to be Like all these fakin' ass rappers in this industry Talkin' bout what they got, and they ain't got a damn thang How you own three cars, but you don't own ya own name? Get ya business right boys, the first class is in session Get a entertainment lawyer in the music profession Start up ya own company, trademark the name That's gon' run ya bout a grand so start savin' ya change Open a bank account quick, and then follow these steps Sign yourself to yourself and start signin' ya own checks Hit the booth and start recording at the speed of need Whatever gets ya juices flowin' could be speed or weed Get it mixed and mastered, pressed up and plastered Sell it to ya whole hood out the trunk, ya bastard! Show all the non-believers what you destined to be And in just a couple years you could be rich like me
[Hook]But I can't hold my tounge I'ma tell it like it is This biz ain't all fun I'ma tell it like it is Give it to ya straight, no chase I'ma tell it like it is Look you straight in yo face And I'ma tell it like it is
I can't hold my tounge I'ma tell it like it is This biz ain't all fun I'ma tell it like it is Give it to ya straight, no chase I'ma tell it like it is Look you straight in yo face And I'ma tell it like it is
[Verse 2]See, mostly all your favorite artists got some serious problems The money could be the problem, but money can't solve 'em Some get addicted to drugs and flat out lazy Some taste a little fame and go flat out crazy I'm close 'cause those close wanna live off my fame And that type of shit alone will drive a nigga insane Not to mention all the vultures, the scandelous promoters Crabs will try to sue ya, magazines will misquote ya Most of these label-heads, they don't care nothin' about ya If you stop sellin' records, they'll act like they don't know ya It's hard mixin' business with pleasure, so don't play Me and my crew argue and fight like every other day Rappers ain't above the law, but our life is so fast That we got a Special Task Force of police on our ass All that, and this is really just the start of it
Hip Hop, you really wanna be a part of it?
[Hook]I can't hold my tounge I'ma tell it like it is This biz ain't all fun I'ma tell it like it is Give it to ya straight, no chase I'ma tell it like it is Look you straight in yo face And I'ma tell it like it is
I can't hold my tounge I'ma tell it like it is Man this biz ain't all fun I'ma tell it like it is I'ma give it to ya straight, no chase I'ma tell it like it is Look you straight in yo face And I'ma tell it like it is
[Verse 3]What's worse than havin' no money is havin' it and losin' it What's worse than havin' some money is grabbin' and abusin' it We never took no money from Chingy, thought I was cool wit him I wish his ass well, but I don't want nothin' to do with him! Some don't own they publishin', me I never fool wit 'em I'm down for my artists, try my best to stay true to 'em 'Cause outside my label competition is irrelevant Unless I'm still in competition with my president And believe that I'm supportin' the Hova Cause the industry's shady, it needs to be taken over' But the first rule to accumalation of wealth Is Don't trust nobody but ya God damned self!
[Hook]I can't hold my tounge I'ma tell it like it is Man this biz ain't all fun I'ma tell it like it is I'm give it to ya straight, no chase I'ma tell it like it is Look you straight in yo face And I'ma tell it like it is
I said I can't hold my tounge I'ma tell it like it is This biz ain't all fun I'ma tell it like it is Give it to ya straight, no chase I'ma tell it like it is Look you straight in yo face And I'ma tell it like it is

[Intro]The time has come...for bad things to leaveThe time has come...for life to beginThe time has come...for the war of the gods
Yes..
It's that timeI'ma take the subtle approach firstCause I'm just gettin startedLet's go
[1st Verse]Look, I'm the best and there's nothing that you can do about itNever needed a publicity stunt, let's tell the truth about itEven in the core of the streets, you can't sway the youth about itBut keep runnin yo mouth, and I swear I'ma knock a tooth up out it
I never claimed to be nuthin but who the fuck I amNever sold cocaine in my life, but I'm still the fuckin manUnderstand, nuthin you did makes you better niggaYou claim the streets, but the streets respect that chedda nigga
Luda got twice as much yo life you can charge it to 'emI fit four of your houses inside my daughters roomAnd still have room for young Karma to playGivin back to the children of tommorrow, for good karma today
