[Hook] Drug dealin' just to get by Stack ya' money 'til it get sky high We wasn't s'posed to make it past 25 Joke's on you, we still alive Throw your hands up in the sky and say: "We don't care what people say" [Kanye's cousin Kim] Hey Kanye, this is your cousin Kim I just wanted to call ya and congratulate you on this CD, it's hot Especially that song “Drug Dealer” You know, I've been a social worker for 10 years I've been paying people's lights, rents, mortgage You talkin' 'bout people paying shine on $6.55 an hour People can't pay their rent for $6.55 an hour So, it just... It's just really difficult to truly understand what these people are going through You know, and people are human They wanna look good, they wanna take pride at how they look, they wanna take pride at what they do The other part that really hit home for me is that people borrow other people's kids and put it on their income tax A lot of times, what they're doing with that money is finding another place to live because the place that they live in The toilet's overflowing or the roof is caving in and the landlord doesn't care Landlord doesn't care enough to come in and fix those things and make sure that the people have a safe environment to live in So, they borrow somebody else's kid, so that maybe they can get a car so they can get back and forth to work Cause, you know, in the hood, the best paying job ain't always next to yo house, it's not within walking distance ('til it get sky high) So you have to take 20 buses to get back and forth You have to spend a lot more money than what you have just on transportation Then you get paid on the job So, maybe they might buy a car, maybe they might buy shoes for their kids, you know And the drug dealing is just supplementary of all of that I mean, like I said, I don't condone it, but I definitely got hugs for my thugs, you know Tryna' get out there makin' and the only thing that I can ask is Once they stack the money 'til it get sky high is that they try to do something positive with it That they try to bring their kids to school That they try to make a difference [Answering Machine] Next message
