Hustla |
Let me tell you what priceless is, some advice to give |
A sacrifice is what I made for the wife and kids |
They say life’s a bitch, but it’s one life to live |
I want my baby where that cake and the icing is |
Out of them crisis-es, off of them vices-es |
They see what we do and grow up in all likenesses |
Really I don’t wanna see 'em having to fight for this |
Story of the family biz, I’ma rewrite the script |
Daughter of a Hip-Hopper, hustla like her grandpapa |
Her destiny done been determined so you can’t stop her |
from being independent, earning paper and proper |
More like a lawyer or a doctor, not a man watcher |
That’s where your man got ya, it’s a big world out yeah |
I’m tryna make a black diamond or a pearl out yeah |
and hit the people to the way the world twirl out yeah |
And when I thank heaven for my little girl |
Please let her be a hustla, baby be a hustla |
Hope my baby girl grows up to be a hustla |
Let her be a hustla, baby be a hustla |
If not, then you’re only a customer |
Please let him be a hustla, baby be a hustla |
Hope my baby boy grows up to be a hustla |
Let him be a hustla, baby be a hustla |
If not, then you’re only a customer |
Sugar Slim, I’m slicker than a squid, nigga no kids |
No baby momma, Sugar freed from the drama |
Sugar be where he wanna, no sweat/suite like a sonnet |
No judge, your honor can’t tell me how to raise mine |
Figure that in due time, if and when I do find |
true love, maybe you can blue-line |
Ooh I’m, caught up in the moment for the meantime |
G I’m, all about the green like tree pines |
See I’m, tryna get the scratch like a feline |
Hoping that my seed don’t know the struggle like me, I’m |
hustling to make a buck, make a buck and fuck it up |
Fuck it up and suck it up, then go and make another buck |
Get the money, get the money, that’s what I know |
I’m hoping that my seeds know a little more than I know |
I know, I know, but baby this what I know |
If we ever settle down, well baby this what I hope |
