Afterlife - The Hustler (Anthem) lyrics

[Verse 1] Let me tell you a story about this guy Gets the ladies, dresses nice, so you can say he's pretty fly Let's call him rob, hey! Cuz that's what he does to the fiends on broadway He's fairly young Knows his way w/ people, so i guess he has a native tongue Looks innocent, but when it comes to beef, he says he'll finish it I guess he should have thought more when before he got really into it Living a life like this, your freedom is pretty diminished sh** This is how he starts his day Wake up in the morning With a loud a** yawn and He's actually unhappy with his life, because he says its boring He maintains to remain the same thing everyday His mom gets a share, so she doesn't really complain She's aware of what's going on, but she's addicted and has her own conflictions To the d** and the money, now look what he's inflicted… [Verse 2] He rides the train everyday Just waiting for friday so he can get paid Now its the dirty a** blue line So on his way there, he sells all the fiends quick dimes Always about his success and his money And if you try and stop him, ain't a damn thing funny He makes fast cash While waiting for for the dash You need some wax for some dabs? You need some meth? you need some crack? He got something for all that He stays low-key because's silently selling keys Pocket full of $500 before he even checks in, to get his checks in And they come correct This sh** happens everyday in front of our eyes Dealing to fiends entering their demise [Verse 3] There's hella ways to make ends meet Start off by planting a couple of seeds Now he talks alot of sh**, and karma's a b**h So only time will tell when he gets his a** bit And he never paid his street tax Wouldn't you think that if you were slangin, you'd know the street facts? You call him stupid, i laugh And after all that, he doesn't even, have his hood pa** intact Now the money's getting to his head A couple of street dudes wanna fill his a** with lead Are you happy with the live that you've led? Or is it worth it for a little bloodshed? Thought he rain the street imperialistically, because he got shot on avalon and imperial ya see He lies there bled to d**h in a fresh pair of ‘breds And these are the last words he said before his last breath to d**h: Money is the anthem of success, so before we go out, what's your address?
