Yeah, I've been laboring about a week
And lately I don't get that much sleep
I've been working double OT
Plus you know them babies gotta eat
f** a first world problem, I got third world hustle
Third world hustle, third world hustle
f** a first world problem, I got third world hustle
Third world hustle, third world hustle
[Verse 1]
Yeah my cousin, my cousin, my cousin locked in Chino
My cousin, allegedly he did something illegal
Now my n***a found Jesus, when he calls he sounds so peaceful
Ironically the thing is in his flicks, he looks like DeVoe
He a G, he stays on his Qs and Ps
Been down since 2003, in a few months he'll be free
Book smart n***a that took to the streets, good with his hands and good with the heat
Behind concrete, he's seen more cheese than y'all n***as done seen

[Verse 2]
You know that girl, that girl that lives right there?
The one with the big bright smile, with the pretty eyes and the real long hair?
She would tag along when we skated down the street
She was on her bike, purple with a white seat
Yeah, she had a baby, went to school to be a nurse
Her sorry baby daddy, yeah, that n***a never works
I went to Deja Vu, saw her stripping on a pole
I put $20 on her like "Baby, bless your soul"
I went out to have a smoke, she came out and bummed a cig
She said in about a month she'll save enough so she quits
Then a month right after that I heard her mama get sick
Then a month right after that I heard she was turning tricks
What's a first world problem to a third world hustle?
Third world hustle, third world hustle
What's a first world problem to a third world hustle?
Third world hustle, third world hustle
