Break it
Like Oh he's broke
I told you he was broke
I told you he ain't got no money
and you know this and that or whatever
Then you'll see some other people
you'll put that you're here in this house
Oh Joey doesn't mean it He bought a crib
He this he that
So it's all a story it's a perception
that people make for you along the way
So it's not really what it necessarily
is at any point or any given time
and that's the thing that concerns me
Break it down
We break it down like
Joey Bad he break it down like
My nigga Fly he break it down like
My nigga Statik break it down like
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2
Alright Alright Alright Alright
Uh
First things first is I been rehearsing these verses
In hopes that I hit the surface and keep myself afloat
But I know one day I'm earning me
some platinum and some gold
And all them labels could just
reimburse this dick in they throat
And tell my mama Oh no
your purses will never run low
No more cause back when I was four
and we was poor You would purchase the store
So here I go your little man has got to grow
I'm walking out the door
My mama just be smiling cause she know
I got my back and got her worried
Only thing she ask is that I hurry
Home in time for Christmas for some dinner
Seen you on TV again
boy you lookin' thinner
But you lookin' like a winner aye
You got to give to get and then you give back
You got to give to get and then you give back
You got to give to get and then you give back
Then you give back then you then you give back
Worst thing worse
I could've been stealing your purse
Or just been putting in work
and leaving niggas in the dirt
But ever since birth I knew
I would be something on this Earth
So now I spit that dope
that shit be hittin' ya nerve
And to my Papa my word is my bond
When you held me in your arms
Did you know along that a star was born
Then you named me Jo Vaughn
now that name ring alarms
Nearly 20 years later we on a plane to The Palms
I gotcha back and got her worried
Only thing I ask is for some Curry
Chicken when we land we eatin' dinner
Mama seen me on TV again lookin' thinner
But I'm lookin' like a winner aye
You got to give to get and then you give back
You got to give to get and then you give back
You got to give to get and then you give back
Then you give back then you then you give back
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
Break it down
my soul to take
Break it down
I pray the Lord my soul to take
my soul to take
Break it down
I pray the Lord my soul to take
Break it down
