[Verse 1: Ernie] I've been getting Straight A's What you trying to say? Packing up my book bag, graduated in may Trying to get a good job, I'll be stacking my pay Gonna be the next rapper out the bay But wait, I'm not even from there I'm losing my mind A white nerd spitting bars, dude I'm one of a kind Record labels hit me up and they want me to sign Like right here, name and date on the dotted line But I'm good I'm independently repping my hood, trying to make it big All my homies knew I could Class makes their mind well, we're quite the opposite Until my CD hit the stores and they was coppin it And now that I'm on top of it, they show me respect Cause everyone in the game knows that I'm up next I don't even got flex cause they know I stay true Plus you don't want to mess with my crew [Hook: Ernie] x2 Getting Straight A's like every single day Graduated last may from UCLA Bachelor's Degree A 4 point O Now I can't get a job anywhere that I go Thats why I turned to rappin I had to make somethin happen The world chewed me up and spit me out into a napkin That's how it goes when you live like me Oh well, at least I still have a degree Paper
[Verse 2: Ernie] I couldn't get a job so I made one of my own Now I'm making money and I paid off all my loans I didn't think it could happen but I worked really hard Started off by mowing all my neighbors yards Every single dollar that I made was spent up in the studio Now I'm really balling like my name is Ricky Rubio Getting with these cuties though Every girl I'm with gotta have a big booty bro And it ain't a thang these girls hang on my chain like orangutan's See I changed the game but I remained the same I'm the best in the west trying to claim my name I'm untamed! Matter of fact I've gone wild! Throwing temper tantrums like I did as a child! Steppin at me? Well, you better fix your style Cause my rhymes are so hot and yours are just mild
[Hook: Ernie]x2 Getting Straight A's like every single day Graduated last may from UCLA Bachelor's Degree A 4 point O Now I can't get a job anywhere that I go That's why I turned to rappin I had to make somethin happen The world chewed me up and spit me out into a napkin That's how it goes when you live like me Oh well, at least I still have a degree Paper
[Outro] You know everyone these days Says you need college to be successful Well let me tell you this; You don't I mean it works out for some people but... Not me I'm gonna be a Rap Star Dope Bars Bitch
