I used to be a rich nigga, selling much crack To make a long story short, I fell off like a hub cap My operation got shut off I cant slide a slut off I gotta beat my dick to get a nut off Cause when a convo is struck up Bitches act stuck up, my luck sucks, everything is fucked up To get cash I gotta beg Cause every time I reach in my pocket all I feel is my dead leg Its about time that I feel cash, gotta get it right now, gotta get it real fast Cause all I got left is 2 mack tens, a army jacket, a ski mask, a hoodie, and some black Tims I'm about to get extra ill, so I went to crib, got booted up and got dressed to kill The first place that I hit was the corner store I pulled out and told everybody to get on the floor I took the cash and I jetted One kid tried to set it, I bet he regret it cause because he got wetted Robberies I did well, when you look in the dictionary under villain you'll see a photo of Big L Fuck a job, punks is gettin robbed is scarred Cause times is hard on the boulevard
[Big L:] Yo I was robbing people on a regular basis in many different places and all types of races I robbed gangstas, I robbed ducks, I didn't care who I stuck as long as I got a buck what the fuck When niggas see me they take flight I'll even rob Jehovah if I catch him right on a late night Keep a vest G don't try to test me A red neck police chief tried to arrest me Ayo that wasn't a smart cop Because I put 2 in his chest and his mother fucking heart stopped Its a must I commit crimes Cause I gotta get mine, its hard times, and all I see are dollar signs Why should I work for another sucker When I can do robberies and make G's like a mother fucker Fuck a job, punks is getting robbed is scarred Cause times is hard on the boulevard
