[Trey Songz - Verse One]
Shorty-eeee (Shorty-eeee), all I got is a dollar and a dream
Is ya gonna roll wit meeee? (roll wit meeee)
You see I've tried a "9 to 5", and it just don't fit meeee (fit meeee) (no way)
I can get us out the hood and have us living good
You feel me? (Oh, do feel me?)
But I ain't leaving here if you ain't wit me (if you ain't wit me)
Cause, girl, a suit wit a smile that don't fit me (that don't fit me)
Taking a bus for some miles is gon' k** me (is gon' k** me) (oh no)
I'm tryin' to turn it around, slide this thing from the ground
Well as long as you're down I knoooow..
[Hook w/ The Ebonys' sample]
Looking at you day after day, I know I -
Just Gotta Make It (alright) Just Gotta Make It (Just Gotta Make It)
Just to see that smile upon your face, I know I -
Just Gotta Make It (alright) I Just Gotta Make It
Everything I do, I do for you and we -
Just Gotta Make It (alright) We - Just Gotta Make It
To the top of the world, me and my girl we -
Just Gotta Make It (alright) Just Gotta Make It
Now, babyyyyy (babyyyy)
One day soon, you gon' walk outside (Yes you are!)
And see a Mercedeeeees (Mercedeeeees)
And I'm gon' give ya the keys and tell ya go shopping (shopping)
(And buy e'rything you want
And buy e'rything you need, make sure you get sh** for me)
Then I can get us out the hood and have us living good
But first I gotta know, if you gonna roll
Cause a suit wit a smile that don't fit me (that don't fit me, no)
Taking a bus for some miles is gon' k** me (it's sure gonna k** me)
I'm tryin' to turn it around (Hey!)
Slide this thing from the ground (HEY!!)
As long as IIIIIIIIIII know-ho-ho you gonna be there

[Twista]
Trey Songz, Twista - we put it down like this
Even if I gotta go and cop a thang
Get up early and go standing on the block, some how I -
(Just gotta make it) That's right
(Just gotta make it) Uh-huh
Even if I have to sit with the fellas
At the round table and come up on a plot, some how I - (oh no)
(Just gotta make it) Baby girl I -
(Just gotta make it) Uh-huh
I'm tellin' you the truth on the daily
There's nothin' I won't do for you baby
Havin' big dreams of me ridin' in the Bentley Continental
While me copin' you a cute lil' Mercedes
And I know I got the block hot
But until I make it happen for you baby I will not stop
I'mma drape you with diamonds and furs
Visions of your herb blowin' in the wind from a drop top
Like a ball-laaaa, like a true shot call-laaaa
The homey, Trey Songz, tippin' all day long if he have to-
Makin' that money for the family
Can I get a wit-chaaaa, it's that n***a named Twis-taaaaaa
Come and take a lil' cruise with a G through the Chi-town streets
Cuz you feelin' me under inspiration whenever I'm..
