(opio)
Remember tabitha smith
Thats been my hard on since the fifth grade
Used to tell me nigga get paid
So we could be chillin
Knew shed be a millionaire
Feelin em squares, stayin up late
Doing her homework
Till he bones hurt
Solid as steel
Real as a day of atonement
Never live for the moment
Thats why suckers they couldnt bone shit
Fool that bodys a temple
Plus her older brothers just might lynch you
If you slippin
Dreams of tinted windows in a benz-o
Graduated valedictorian, still smokin indo
She was a whiz though
And I admire it
Finished up grad school
Now she mob a jaguar too
She never led shed get maniacal
Kept her eyes on true ambition
Thats how she livin fat
Educated herself
Now she in a rack with six figures
Stacks of cashola I told her
Chorus (opio):
Stay hustlin
Watch for your enemies
Fool dont sneeze
You might blink for a second
Stay alert they like green berets
Checkin your traps
With impeccable accuracy
Know where you at & where you be
(a-plus)
Now everybody is a victim
If he a idiot I probably got a problem with him
About these women and that (pollyin? ) to get em
Maybe end up sorry that you hit em
Oh you was trickin now a part of you is with em
I know plenty of those travel many roads
Went to extremes to receive every penny owed
Hella niggas be petty though
They eyes give em open and their actions let me know
So why give a fuck
All them answers lead to more questions
And if youre guessin yous a poor specimen
More death to them
My demeanor changes
When I see the stages
Of a nigga schemin before I beat him like peter gages
I listen to many morons, let em go on
Wonder why they talk for so long they be like so on and so on
I examine who and what I think I know
Everybodys a victim is what Im peepin though, so
I hustle with friends
Even tussle with them
I aint knowin nothin but them
Toughen the skin ha ha
Now its all about your work ethic
In a word check it
In a word check it
Extended chorus
(opio)
Stay hustlin
Watch for your enemies
Fool dont sneeze
You might blink for a second
Stay alert they like green berets
Checkin your traps
With impeccable accuracy
Know where you at & where you be
Back to the scene of the crime with rubber gloves on
Tryin to expose the cover up but there was none
So when the fuzz come
We say whats up to em
Cuz we untouchable & give a fuck
(tajai)
V-12 pushin like 80
Super sounds of coltrane stainless
So I dont hydroplane
I kiss my lady and my baby
Told em things gon be straight
Hopped out at the hospital gate
Now Im a little late
But that can mean everything
Got an urgent page
Jetstream to the scene
Mask & gloves plus (d green? ) scrubs
Open you up for the peaking
Grab my instruments and start tweaking this and that
Then stitch you back to near perfection
Avoiding all complications and infections
My occupation, the culmination of strenuous concentration
Lots of lonely contemplation
No time for impatience when you dream makin
My reward is smiling faces on all my patients
Mobility, ability, to make changes
In a community ravaged by the savage collaborations
Of racists, but yall cant say shit
Im a hustle till I drop one day may save your kids
Extended chorus 2x
Repeated:
Stay hustlin, what
1x:
Legalize hustlin
Yeah
Watch for your enemies
Fool dont sneeze
