fuck whos the baddest, a persons status depends on salary
and my mentality is money orientated
im destined to live the dream for all my peeps who never made it
cause yeah, we were beginners in the hood as five percenters
but something must have gotten in us cause all of us turned into sinners
now some restin in peace and some sittin in san quentin
others such as myself are tryin to carry on tradition
keepin this schweppervescent street ghetto essence inside us
cause it provide us with the proper insight to guide us
even though we know somehow we all gotta go
but as long as we leavin thievin
well be leavin with some kind of dough
so until that day we expire and turn to vapors
me and my capers will be somewhere stackin plenty papers
keepin it real, packin steel, gettin high
cause lifes a bitch and then you die.
