Lyrics: Krayzie Bone: Thug Mentality 1999: Paper
The world the world the world is very different now
Chorus
Everybody wants some paper
I want some
Niggas fightin’ over paper
I know you want some
And when you die I can bet you you died tryin’ to get some paper
I can bet you will die
Shame
Shame
Ain’t life a fucked up game without the green
Mighty mighty dollar bill y’all
Have you sinnin’
Eventually in a coffin one day
But we like the hustle
‘Cause niggas got bills to pay
Struggle and strivin’
I’m tryin’ to stay alive
But in meantime I’ma get mine
Everything’ll be fine
When I can eat and get high
I mean eat when I want to
Purchase some weed and have a place to P.O.D. when I want to
But tryin’ to make the paper ain’t the only worry
I gotta keep my glock cocked
Niggas be plottin’ on me
Tryin’ to hurt me
So I stop and nigga what’s up I’m in a hurry
No time for conversations with niggas that’s thinkin’ to murder me
But I pin ’em everytime
Time after time they try
But you can be deceased
No more your life
Friends is usually your foes
You know you’re just like everybody
I trust nobody
‘Cause
Chorus
Everybody want the paper
I want some
Niggas fightin’ over paper
I know you want some
And when you die
I can bet you you died tryin’ to get some paper
I can bet you will die
Everybody wants some paper
I want some
That’s what we fightin’ over paper
I know you want some
And when you die
I can bet you you died tryin’ to get some paper
I can bet you will die
Shame
Shame
Money money money
Make your make your cash flow
A nigga be thinkin’ ain’t it funny sometimes
That you can be quick to do a crime
You come up and get robbed and shot
But you got the same job
Tricky business
Sometimes you get your wig split. But shit for the cheddar
I guess we just be willing to risk it
This is a stick up
Give up the cash
Your wallet purse
Nigga dash
You turn around
I’m puttin a bullet up in your ass
Desperate ass niggas don’t play
Me and my niggas ain’t ate all day
And you can go to the grave for meal plate
Niggas play dirty ’cause we out here hungry
We just want a meal on the table
and a meal in the pocket
You die if you cannot pay for your life
Niggas is frantic
And that’s why (that’s why…)
Chorus
Everybody wants some paper
I want some
Niggas fightin’ over paper
I know you want some
And when you die I can bet you you died tryin’ to get some paper
I can bet you will die
Shame
Shame
Big hundred dollar bills y’all
Would you kill for them hundred dollar bills y’all
Big hundred dollar bills y’all
Tell me would you kill for them hundred dollar bills y’all
Would you kill
Would you kill
Would you kill for them hundred dollar bills y’all
Chorus
Everybody want the paper
I want some
Niggas fightin’ over paper
I know you want some
And when you die I can bet you you died tryin’ to get some paper
I can bet you will die
Everybody want some paper
I want some
Niggas fightin’ over paper
I know you want some
And when you die I can bet you you died tryin’ to get some paper
I can bet you will die
Shame
Shame
Better make your cash flow
Nigga better make your cash flow
Nigga make your money money man
(Shame shame)
Better hustle up and make your cash flow
Fuck being poor
