Joell Ortiz - Just to Get a Check lyrics

A little kid just walking up the block He sees a boombox with a crowd so he stops Not too close though he sort of easedrops Hears one kid say "I'm movin' all of these rocks" And the next line rhymes with the line before Then the next dude goes but the guy's a bore That's when he realized that he's near a street cypher So he ran across the street up the stairs and he's hyper Finallyhe finds a pen and a couple loose sheets Writes his first sixteen to a Das EFX beat It wasn't Smith & Wesson either way he was weak But he ran back down spit his sh** and it was deep Not his rhyme 'cause that was filled with fifth shots He was just amazed how they let a little kid rock He been up stairs since now look his sh**'s hot And that little kid's now a big boy in hip hop Just to get a check
