Of rushtown management check this out since we talking over
This def beat that I put together I wanna hear some of them
Def rhymes know what I'm sayin' and together we can get
Paid in full

Thinkin ' of a master plan

Cuz ain't nuthin' but sweat inside my hand
So I dig into my pocket all my money is spent
So I dig deeper but still comin' up with lint
So I start my mission leave my residence
Thinkin' how could I get some dead presidents
I need money I used to be a stick up kid
So I think of all the devious things I did
I used to roll up this is a hold up ain't nuthin' funny
Stop smiling be still don't nuthin' move but the money
But now I learned to earn cos I'm righteous

I feel great so maybe I might just
Search for a 9 to 5 if I strive
Then maybe I'll stay alive
So I walk up the street whistlin' this

Feelin' out of place cos man do I miss
A pen and a paper a stereo a tape of
Me and eric b and a nice big plate of
Fish which is my favorite dish
But without no money it's still a wish
Cos I don't like to dream about gettin' paid
So I dig into the books of the rhymes that I made
To now test to see if I got pull

Hit the studio cos I'm paid in full

Rakim check this out yo
You go to your girl house and I'll go to mine
Cause my girl is definitely mad
Cause it took us too long to do this album

Yo I hear what you're saying
So let's just pump the music up

And count our money
Yo well check this out yo Eli
Turn down the bass down
And let the beat just keep on rockin '

And we outta here

Yo what happened to peace

Peace peace peace
