nigga,
just down for my riches, I figure it takes
About a million or 500.000 tapes
To become officially gold
or platinum status
That's why I'm always at this
Practice, in and out tha
studio 24- 7
My occupation,
this is how I make my livin'
I get harassed mostly everywhere I go
Can do my thing without a
motherfuckin' popo
All up in my mix,
cause I'm tryin' to maintain
And get a grip light weight fame
Born and raised in tha valley south Vallejo
The northern part of cali,
'bout my mail
Struggle and strive all my life
in a world of grief
Sucker motherfuckers want
to knock me of my feet
But imma keep on steppin'
and gettin' bigger
I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga,
just down for my riches
Not to long ago I'm off to the bank
to cash my cheque
The lady teller wouldn't give
me no damn respect
She started acting hella snotty,
kinda prejudiced
I guess she didn't like the way
that a nigga was dressed
Before I could even get my
foot in the door, right
The bitch already had a brother
like me stereo- typed
Ready to push the button with no delay
I said wait a minute, baby,
you mistakin' me for andre
I'm not a ... rat head want to be
I wouldn't rob a fuckin'
bank for pub licity
I get it honestly, legally so have no fear
I make more in a week than
you do in a year
Straight out tha geto, hillside resident
Sick wid it records and tapes,
and I'm the president
So don't go thinkin' that every
brother is out to get ya
I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga,
just down for my riches
Sometimes my language is vulgar,
lotsa profanity
I try not to trip when kids parents
be sweating me
18 and over,
that's what you gotta be
To purchase my tape and make
sure you got i.d.
That's all I can say so mommy
and daddy need to peep
It ain't my fault the kids dump
it off the streets
They hear it at school,
walkin' home and everywhere they go
And most of the violence
come from movies on hbo
The shit that I be spittin' is
real cause I'm real see
I'm out to make a meal,
do you feel me
Holdin' my own cause I'm
grown and intelligent
Try to knock my hustle?
that shit is irrelevant
I'm not a nuttin'
ass nigga,
just down for my riches
