[00:27.89]And I came out of it damp
[00:29.26]But now it's champagne showers
[00:30.62]When we poppin' the champ' ugh
[00:33.11]We dodged all the feds and they traps
[00:35.34]N**gas can't be us 'cause they rats
[00:38.02]Stand tall point a finger never that
[00:40.09]I knew a n**ga had it all
[00:41.36]Went to the b ain't get it back
[00:42.77]That's why I'm humble as ever
[00:43.99]And I rumble whatever

[00:59.80]I'm talking' under the cellar
[01:01.07]Now the rolls royces come with umbrellas
[01:03.04]For the rain and all the pain that we been through
[01:05.58]If you don't feed your wolves
[01:06.69]They gon' put you on the menu
[01:08.14]That's why I be with family
[01:09.30]And some bulls that I been knew

[01:47.40]I seen this shit happen over and over
[01:49.13]That couple hundred thousand holding' you over
[01:51.05]That ain't real money
[01:52.42]That's bill money buy a rollie get a wheel money
[01:55.35]Catch a case pay a lawyer take a deal money
[01:57.98]Now you tapped out and got no appeal money
[02:00.47]Calling' home like n**gas done did you wrong
[02:02.85]But when you had that money
[02:03.96]You could've put n**gas on
[02:05.37]And the moment they put cuffs on you
