[Verse 1: Lil Wayne]
~#**************#~
Uh, I thank the Lord Im not a broke nigga, I’m dope, nigga
~#**************#~
Change my name, I aint like average Joe, nigga
~#**************#~
Up above wit my above average ho, nigga
~#**************#~
Tight frame with a tight cameltoe, nigga
~#**************#~
I got killers on the front line, you on the sideline
~#**************#~
Follow the guidelines or you be in the skyline
~#**************#~
Killas on the inside, and on your blindside
~#**************#~
Shoot you right between your motherfuckin’ eyebrows
~#**************#~
Ooh, kill em—its that “Carter V,” let me get em
~#**************#~
Im feeling like John Gotti Lennon
~#**************#~
And you gon respect my mind and my sign and my emblem
~#**************#~
You got money on your mind and we aimin at your temple
~#**************#~
Check me out or just be quiet in the library, nigga
~#**************#~
Or the flowers on your grave gon be dyin’ every winter
~#**************#~
And as long as I’m alive Im a financial wizard
~#**************#~
Long as I can make a dollar out a dime and a nickle
~#**************#~
Thank the Lord I’m not a broke nigga
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Snoop Dogg]
~#**************#~
I get money, Im a hustler
~#**************#~
So if you buyin what Im sellin’, you a customer
~#**************#~
See I can get it to you anywhere, anything
~#**************#~
But its point-blank range when the pistol bang
~#**************#~
I mix it up, I fix it up and I switched it up
~#**************#~
I locked down this end and got it twisted up
~#**************#~
See Im a dog, but I loc with my locs
~#**************#~
They say, “You are what you smoke”
~#**************#~
[Refrain: Lil Wayne]
~#**************#~
I grew up around dope niggas
~#**************#~
Uh, uh, uh, dope niggas
~#**************#~
I grew up around dope niggas
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Lil Wayne]
~#**************#~
Yeah, I grew up around dope niggas and cold killers
~#**************#~
And most niggas was both, nigga, two sport niggas
~#**************#~
I was no different from those niggas, but I was chose, nigga
~#**************#~
See those niggas saw more in me than these hoes, nigga
~#**************#~
Momma was a go-getter, a coach, nigga
~#**************#~
Taught me everything I know, nigga, a soul sister
~#**************#~
Taught me how to be a goal tender, support system
~#**************#~
For that bitch who played her role with ya and those children
~#**************#~
I aint lyin, slime, all my niggas balling, its a fuckin team sport
~#**************#~
I could change the world, but I done lost the remote
~#**************#~
All my niggas balling, thats how its supposed to be, ho
~#**************#~
I could change the world, Id rather change to beast mode
~#**************#~
Coke sniffers and dope stickers
~#**************#~
And most niggas was both, nigga, explode, nigga
~#**************#~
Pop a motherfuckin cork, nigga, to those niggas
~#**************#~
‘Cause lifes too fuckin short, nigga—get old, nigga
~#**************#~
I aint lyin, got a gold mirror just to see my goals clearer
~#**************#~
Be a role player, role model, while you roll with em
~#**************#~
They say you dont need to be with us, stay on the road, nigga
~#**************#~
That way I wouldnt come to the end of the road with em
~#**************#~
Man, all my niggas targets, thats includin me, ho
~#**************#~
I could change the world, Id rather change the people
~#**************#~
And definitions cause were defined by our legal roles
~#**************#~
All your haters fuelin, and my needle broke
~#**************#~
Lord, I aint a broke nigga
~#**************#~
[Refrain: Lil Wayne]
~#**************#~
I thank the Lord I aint a broke nigga
~#**************#~
I thank the Lord I aint a broke nigga
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Snoop Dogg & Lil Wayne]
~#**************#~
I get money, Im a hustler
~#**************#~
So if you buyin what Im sellin, you a customer
~#**************#~
See I can get it to you anywhere, anything
~#**************#~
But its point-blank range when the pistol bang
~#**************#~
