DJ Premier - Soul Of A Hustler lyrics

I'm on tha corner were the remy pour Crack flowin in dimes Goons patiently waitin In cuts to crack nines Playin em like curtains when it's que It's showtime action takin your shine You shook with a look like n***a whats on your mind No questions all he knoe now What's yours is mine That 44 blast could make a victim go blind The next flash you meet the maker of all kind His humble drove him dead he thinks its all fine Show us more choices put your ear to the streets And hear the devilish voices tellin you how to eat Drivin you insane forcin you in the lane When its nothin to lose its all to gain And your family ties got you growin pains Just when its all good its f** it here we go again Black out in the bucket tuckin on the ratches Goin out like crispus atticus screamin f** it Ready to make a move co*k back and buck it See him slippin know he trippin hear him b**hin And his mind you should see the way that he livin Things he vision crazy on the moves he sought out He told us man you gotta walk my route His man no longer poured jukes on him Cuz hes so shook of him he might go crook on him You should see the ill type of look on him And the type of htings he think god took from him Like his pops and his moms sold the crack Like im hustlin now when I can't look back You see that lex right there I should jack that Dam that mac id love to pack that In middle school they thought I was a s**er Copped that nine freshman year high school I'm tougher Under the leather ready to move doin whatever Posted on dale with that yay to sale Told my man if I get locked you better get me out on bail Turn me a life a livin hell He looked at me like dam you lost it Yup you got dam right bam I tossed it All the marbles all the techs outa the cars Told my man go soft or go hard Make that move cook that coke hard like lard Move that pork upstate new york Did it and done it locked down blocks demanded to run it I told you dudes my names sun and I'm here to son it Woo I make a man I got soldiers out on douja missions Wake up and smell the folgers n***as With the dro the eggs mixed in with the cheese The grits with the bu*ter understand its word to mother Goddam now I got my hands on a whole nother change Im tryin to focus to some more other things They told me my talent was good that could get me dough I said you crazy you see them fiends right there Yup that partner spent that green right here Hit that gla** that pipe and leaned right there The next day they askin could they get it on credit You dead it and not even because big said it I already knew it I already been thru it I told em if the game do me dirty I ain't gonna sue it I'm gonna pursue it Pocket tryin to put two in em One in the calve one in the a** bout to ruin em Goddam n***a says son you trippin Goddam n***a at home moms is b**hin Tellin me I gotta pay to eat breakfast inside of her kitchin Do you know what thats like at 18 livin Man you crazy my brain is sickened dam near hurled f** a girl f** a b**h f** a club f** a dub patrol f** a bottle of bub Id rather grind in the cut late night with some d** I had to pa** out free bs to coasties Lost on my first pack to get em to trust me Now I gotta spot for days a musty 22 up under the pillow dirty and rusty Waitin for the jakes to kick in the door and cuff me You know what over the fence out on the roof Gone in the wind im back again Got money I can relax again But I blew too much this weekend on south beach Throwin my dick in the mouth of some freaks Trickin my bed back to the brick up under the bread Back to the stress bullsh** fillin my head Dam im dam near bout to go all out Told my man pour out the salt dawg See me body beat tonight and body hauled off You had plans for five years now they called off All because my pockets hurtin life get worse God even said its copelesss Heard the bullets comin farther hes bout to murk me Id looked up from my body the lord ain't help me They say you dont see god until you fall to your knees Your daughters life is hard I seen that park But I got right back on my own two Turn to the same bullsh** that I used to
