[F#] So [Bm]
keep your eyes [Em] peeled for the COVID unit.
Cause they [Bm] know for jumping out a [Em] black Chevy, trusting through the [Bm] phone.
Here comes the red dogs.
I'm [Em] busting out around the corner in my [Bm] home.
Nip it from the [Em] area, I'm scared.
So one of these [Bm] bitches might wind up [Em] dead.
Cause I have no time for [Bm] jail.
Fuck clever [Em] cops.
Fuck El Jefeo [Bm] and crooked ass taxing.
Got the whole [B] country thinking that my [Em] city is the big lick for [Bm] 96.
_ [Em] 94 big gift, goody mo [Bm]
outcast.
A [Em] vision from the past.
_ [Bm] _
_ _ [Em] My white eyes are burning [Bm]
kind of [Em] slow.
_ _ [F#] You [Bm] need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
Don't [Bm] let the days of your [E] life pass [E] by.
You [B] need to get up, get [Em] out, and get [D] something.
Don't [B] spend all your time [Em] trying to get high, nigga.
You [Bm] need to get up, get [E] out, and get something.
How [Bm] will you make it if you [B] never even try?
You need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
Cause [Bm] you and I [Em] got the groove for you and I.
Y'all [F#] telling me that I need to get out and vote?
Why?
Ain't nobody black, but crack curves.
So I got to register.
I'm [D] picking a better shit to do with my [D#] time.
Never smelled the aroma of the Poma, but I like the [B] deep ass [E] rhyme.
So let me take y'all [B] way back to when a nigga stayed in Southwest [G#m] Atlanta, [Bm] aye.
Y'all could not [E] tell me nothing.
Thought I hit that bottom [Bm] rock at age 13.
Start working at that loading dock.
Then laying my [Em] mama off of work.
General Motors tripping, but I come home bank like Hank from nigging and [Bm] dipping.
Doing dumb [Em] shit not knowing what a nigga know [Bm] now.
Yeah, that petty [Em] shit will have you cased up in [Bm] lockdown, I dig.
[Em] Over two peace points, still acting a fool.
Wasting my time in the school.
I'd rather be shit and [Bm] food.
Cool as [Em] how I played the tenth grade.
I [Bm] thought it was all [Em] about mac and [F#] hoes and wearing fifth [Bm] grade.
Instead of [Em] being in class, I'd rather be up in some [Bm] ass.
Not thinking about them [Em] six courses that I need to [Bm] pass.
_ [E] Graduation rolled around like roly [Bm]-polies.
Damn, that's fucked up.
[Em] I should've listened [F#] when my mama [Bm] told me that.
If you [Em] pray now, you're gonna suffer later.
[Bm]
Figured she was [Em] talking yang-yang, so I made a [Bm] note addition that kept [Em] missing the point.
She tried to poke me [Bm] with the dope, but [Em] that I get the mo' I'm feeling broke as [Bm] shit.
But [E] that don't matter though, I am an [B] O-U-T [E]-Cast.
So get up [A] off your ass.
[G] You need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
Don't [Bm] let the days of your life pass by.
You need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
Don't [B] spend all your time [Em] trying to get high.
You [B] need to get up, get [Em] out, and get [Bm] something.
How will you make it if you [Em] never even try?
[Bm] You need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
[Bm] Cause you and I got to do what you and I.
You need to get up.

You [Bm] need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
How [Bm] will you make it if you [E] never even try?
[F#] You need to get up, [Em] get out, and get something.
[Bm] Cause you and I got the [Em] beef with you and I.
[Bm] I don't resolve [Em] ever graduating at all.
[Bm]
Sometimes I feel I'm [Em] just a disappointment to y'all.
[B]
Everyday I just [Em] play around and I can't be found.
[Bm] Always has to give [Em] me thumb, living life like [Bm] a pro. _
Times [Em] have crumbed.
My auntie got enough [Bm] problems of her own.
[Em] Nigga, you supposed [E] to be grown.
[Bm] I agree, I [Em] gotta be the man I'm supposed to be.
[Bm] But negative [Em] fatigue is all you seem to ever see.
[Bm] I admit, [Em] I've done some dumb shit and I'm [Bm] probably gonna do some more.
[Em] You shouldn't hold that against [Bm] me, no.
Why not?
My music's all that I got.
[Bm] But sometimes we get dressed up for this to be manifested.
I know you [Em] know what I'm gonna say this to [Bm] you.
I get [F#] high, but I don't get poor.
[Bm]
So what's the [Em] limit, Post-It Beat?
That must be why you can't get your ass up out the bed before three.
You [B] need to get up, get out, cut that bullshit out.
Ain't you sick and tired of having to do without?
[Bm] _
Damn, [Em] what up with all these questions?
You acting [Bm] so you know something I [Em] don't.
Do you have [E] any suggestions?
[Bm]
Cause every job I get is cruel and [Bm] demeaning.
Sick of taking [Em] trash out and toilet bowl [Bm] cleaning.
But I'm also [Em] sick and tired of struggling.
I never ever thought I'd have to resort to drug [Bm] smuggling.
Nah, [Em] that ain't what I'm about.
See, I would [Bm] just continue traveling [Em] this route without any [Bm] doubt or fear.
I [Em] know the Lord ain't brought me this far so he can drop me off here.
Did I make myself clear?
You need to get up, get [E] out, and get something.
Don't [B] let the days of your life pass by.
You need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
Don't spend all your time trying to get high, nigga.
You [Bm] need to get up, get [B] out, and get something.
How will you make it if you never even try?
You need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
Cause you and I got the group for you and I.
Well, [F#m]
get up, [C] stand up, so what's said, you [B] dickheads?
See, when I was a [E] youngster, used to wear them fucking [Bm] brocades.
My mama made me [Em] do it, but the devil, he made me smarter.
[Bm]
Taught me to jack them [Em] weak-ass niggas, boy, they fucking [Bm] smarter than the middle school.
I was a bigger fool.
I [Bm] wore a tank top to show my [Em] tattoos, but I was cool.
I used to hang out with my daddy's brothers.
I called them my uncles.
[Bm] They taught me how to [Em] smoke herb.
I followed them when they ran [F#] numbers.
So endless [Em] since I was _ Rosemary's baby.
[Bm] And then I learned the difference [Em] between a bitch and a lady.
[Bm] Girl, I treat them all like [Em] foes.
See, I pimped them.
Bitch never had my money, so I never whipped them.
[Bm] Wink.
See, all the players [Em] came and all the players went.
A player ain't a gangster, but a player can't handle a sit [Bm] bitch.
You need to [Em] get up, get out, get something.
Smoke out, cause it's all about money, money, money.
Yeah, right, said it.
A nigga smoking plats in the braves.
[Bm] Had I hang where we [Em] going, cause the dungeon is where the funk's at, boy.
I'm through to organize, cause they raised me.
[Bm] I'm also down with Lil' [Em] J's, cause L.A. Reed, yeah, he paid me, [Bm] and it's cool.
Yeah, [Em] it's real cool.
Get paid, boom, [Bm] fox, and all that other fat [Em] shit like that.
Ha ha ha ha.

How [Bm] will you make it if you [E] never even try?
You [B] need to get up, get [Em] out, and get something.
Cause you and I got to do for you and I.
A [Bm] lot of people in my [Em] past tried to do me.
Screw me, [Bm] throw me over in the [Em] fire.
Let me get [F#] chunky and tarred [B] like a piece of wood.
The [Em] spirit's got the mutant's mind.
[B] I'm getting paranoid and [E] steady looking for the time.
[Bm] It's 7 in the morning and [Em] ain't nobody up yet.
I got my [Bm] lone guns, get my quote and [Em] throw my ball cap.
I'm headed out to go, to get up in my ride.
I'm digging [Bm] through the ashtray, [Em] hoping to have a good day.
I have to [Bm] make a mess, and [Em] when I light it up, I hear voice [Bm] in my head.
You got to [Em] get up, get [F#] out, and get something.
[B] Now I know what's on.
My [Em] day has finally started.
Back up [Bm] in my crib, beat my [Em] shit, break out quick in my slick.
[Bm]
84 _ [Em] seconda bill, steady [Bm] bouncing out the [E] point.
To Cameron [B] Road, the valley of the [Em] south side flow.
Everybody [Bm] know about that killer [Em] that we call blow.
[F#] So [Bm]
keep your eyes [Em] peeled for the COVID unit.
Cause they [Bm] know for jumping out a [Em] black Chevy, trusting through the [Bm] phone.
Here comes the red dogs.
I'm [Em] busting out around the corner in my [Bm] home.
Nip it from the [Em] area, I'm scared.
