Time to switch it up
All the traces are…
We’re here to live it up
Tryin’ to get a buck without gettin’ caught
Shadows around my ankles, I had enough
Time to switch it up
The strangers are never givin’ up
We’re here to live it up
Tryin’ to get a buck without gettin’ caught
Shadows around my ankles, I had enough
They want to set me up ,aha,let me up
They can’t take it high ,make it stay in real bucks
Truth,they told me,is beneath me,let’s be honest
Cause I’ll be switching up the scenery like from a project
To the Kremlin and Honk Kong skyline
They never really turned,it’s always my time
Found another skill, hip-hop is mine
The only reason you wrath cause you heard my rhymes
You wasting good drug money on studio …
You better hold my clothes,get French fries
You suck,turn that bullshit off
They ain’t got no …in your I-pod,they ain’t got no…
Who’s the best,here’s the best,turn the lights on
You need to see what the fuck is going on
I’m the…the Great Wizzard of Oz
I’m the dog with the…always worried about gettin’ your life in order
In the New York…you could lose your life
…with the sacrifice
Man ,I’ve been through it,who are you foolin’?
I really lived this life,it’s not just music
Take my catalog? and give them what they’re asking for
A clear vision of this world that we livin’…
Celebrate the good times and and roll with the punches
God on my side,but the devil was among us
My life is so close control ,I see through the …the truth be told…
…to get back to wrip that show
1000 pounds makes dollars for show
Time to switch it up
All the traces are…
We’re here to live it up
Tryin’ to get a buck without gettin’ caught
Shadows around my ankles, I had enough
Time to switch it up
The strangers are never givin’ up
We’re here to live it up
Tryin’ to get a buck without gettin’ caught
Shadows around my ankles, I had enough
I’ve been riding that …for many
Speeding in night and days ,pushin’ to the limit
But the journey is not finished
Part of way…to handle my own business
I made a … in the road
Which way to go ,I’m more for the doe
This money goes for whores…
And it’s all fucked up when you got to put your dreams on whores
Your homies don’t seem to paint the picture like you do
Tryin’ to navigate through a city that outgrew
Fuck the world cause they doubt you
Include the enemies but watch the niggaz that surround you
100 miles/h gettin’ closer to the exit
…cause I’m more to some next shit
Am I heading in the right direction?
Only God knows,but they count my blessings
New direction,GPS you got it
Detectives wanna get the keys out my house in
Tryin’ to change the same all baby-momma drama
I left my wife for her maid of honor
Ex- wife took the house ,left me with no furniture
With 2 kids to attend to,that bitch is so sinister
Yes,my life shredded ,but it will go on…
It was a one way trip back to the prison
Incarcerated with friends of mine from the exit sign
These statements underline my name as the master mind
Cold defended will let me testify?…
Running out of gas under an underpass
You turn my life,there is no coming back
Time to switch it up
All the traces are…
We’re here to live it up
Tryin’ to get a buck without gettin’ caught
Shadows around my ankles, I had enough
Time to switch it up
The strangers are never givin’ up
We’re here to live it up
Tryin’ to get a buck without gettin’ caught
Shadows around my ankles, I had enough
