It's been a minute that I've been sittin' up in this cell Thinkin' of many ways that I can get paid escapin' jail My life is like a football game, I'm movin' the chains Tryin' to score so I could maneuver the Range

Ladies bounce to this, sip Cris', get drunk to this Refs walks to this, dawgs thump to this On my mind is my fetti, itchin' for the day That I can parole and jack the nose on a Chevy

Yeah, Dub stay chuckin' the pavement, I'm anti-general populated Hood related, the industry most hated 'Cause I ball greedy and rhyme for mine, c'mon I'm willin' to die for mine C'mon, while haters hate from the sideline
