[Intro: Matt Muse]
Yea...excellence every time
It only gets better mane...look
[Verse 1: Matt Muse]
This school sh** be stressin' mane
Out here tryina' finesse it mane
Graduation in May n***a
So ain't no time to play n***a
When the summer hit we gon' make these hits
When the summer hit its our time
And when I make a grip I'm gon' save that sh**
Ain't 'bout to waste one dime
If the light skinned girl and her dark skinned friend
In love with every line
Then I've got to drop something hot
That they can rock when it's sundress time, call it
[Hook: Matt Muse]
Every time, every-every time, every-every time
(You gotta do it)
Every time, every-every time, every-every time
(You gotta do it)
Every time
They got that hate on they mind
Yo I can't pay 'em no mind
I go this pay all on mine
I do it
For the people with the drive who can't find the range
(Every time)
The under-paid teacher tryina' make a change
(Every time)
Getting money off the books just to buy his books
(Every time)
The hustler or the school, yo who the real crook?
[Bridge: Matt Muse]
You gotta do it (3x)
[Verse 2]
Bumping 'Songs In A Minor'
Trying to pick out a major
"Yo, they don't...they don't got Hip-Hop?"
Now here I stand 6 years later
Got this Bachelor's in Comms
Just to satisfy my moms
She know I wanna emcee but this degree
Gonna elate her
So I'm gon' get it then go home
To show Chicago I love it because we
Fired Donald Trump he knew sh** was gon' get ugly
And cause we love the brain
But we still keep it s**er free
Long as truth is in my veins
But your bucks they gon' f** with me
See 'em shaking uncomfortably
That's that early Parkinson's
Drive 'em crazy when I spit it they get tickets
Parking sins
You can count your losses
While I'll be tallying these wins
And Fish tallying the kicks
And Big Mike tallying the spins
And Dre tallying the plans
On how we gon' take your fans
And get 'em to dedicate every second to excellence
Whether broke or rich
Get with the sh**s
And don't you ever stop
Cause it's not 'bout who got it
But what you do with what you got
C'mon
[Hook]
Every time, every-every time, every-every time
(You gotta do it)
Every time, every-every time, every-every time
(You gotta do it)
Every time
They got that hate on they mind
Yo I can't pay 'em no mind
I go this pay all on mine
I do it
[Bridge: Matt Muse]
Every time (Repeated)
For the people with the drive who can't find the range
The underpaid teacher tryina' make a change
Getting money off the books just to buy his books
The hustler or the school, yo who the real crook?
