Song Lyrics

Yeah, get it in the morning, yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause I'm so serious,
You get it in the morning
'Cause I'm so serious

So serious man
Listen up if you a true hustler man for real
You gonna bounce back if you got get back skills
F*ck all that weeping and whining and crying piss on a bitch
I'ma make it do what it do get out and get my grits
I'm on that graveyard shift my water feel pass me
Hustlin' tryin' to stay focused got a twenty four hour notice on my door
Business is slow, I speak the truth will pressure out the roof
A long way from being recession proof
I'm going through
I ain't trying to be a deadbeat dad
I want my kids to have a better life than I had
My cellular off, need some more minutes over my limit
Had the money but bought ounce of weed thought I could flip it
Man I'm niggorant 'cause that's what some of us black folks do
Instead of payin' a bill we gonna buy the new Jordan shoe
Milk and diapers and baby wipes cost an arm and a leg
A breast of wing and a thigh
Hustle trying to get by

Hey don't underestimate me,
A couple of days is all is gonna take me
'Cause I'm so serious, and go like that
I drop it off and it come right back
I get it in the morning
Don't underestimate me,
A couple of days is all is gonna take me
'Cause I'm so serious, and go like that
I drop it off and it come right back
I get it in the morning

I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of being broke
I'm sick of this sequel
Man I swear I hate reportin' to them people bra' I'm down on my luck
Ain't got a buck to my name, dirty testing pissing in a cup, what the f*ck
They found weed in my system, I told my girl I was quitting
They sent me back to San Quentin for ninety days
Did my time and got out,
Now I'm in the unemployment line trying to figure shit out
But the penal system got me by the necks haha
With my troubled past I can't even get me a job
My partner rap he got his own record label they doing their thang
If I holler at him maybe he can shoot me some change
Plus I'm a loyal n*gger man, I learn quick bro I ain't stupid
All you gotta do is show me one time and I can do it
My fellow put a hustle under his wang, show me the game
Now I'm doing my thang

Hey don't underestimate me,
A couple of days is all is gonna take me
'Cause I'm so serious, and go like that
I drop it off and it come right back
I get it in the morning
Don't underestimate me,
A couple of days is all is gonna take me
'Cause I'm so serious, and go like that
I drop it off and it come right back
I get it in the morning

I'm trying to stay out of trouble and triple double quadruple
This little change that I got
By throwing a few concerts
But I'm not too sure if I'm ready to spend this mill'
The reason why is rap shows don't always go that well
Uh, and the chances are that I probably won't recoup
So I'ma take this loot and book some old school R'n'B soul groups
That way the value insurance won't be that high
And plus I'm minimizing the chances of somebody dying, that's right
I got a homie that work at the toll bridge
He make good money, plus he get benefits
He been hollering at me never the lesson
Trying to get a n*gger a job there which is a blessing
But I don't think the homie really understand
I am an entrepreneur man I ain't working for no white man
Attitude of a hood boy, all my life I've been running from the Elorys I'm serious

Hey don't underestimate me,
A couple of days is all is gonna take me
'Cause I'm so serious, and go like that
I drop it off and it come right back
I get it in the morning
Don't underestimate me,
A couple of days is all is gonna take me
'Cause I'm so serious, and go like that
I drop it off and it come right back
I get it in the morning.
