We rollin' with rush 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

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
