The Hustle

The Hustle - Common

Written by：Lonnie Lynn/Karriem Riggins/Dartanian Donaldson/Omar Lye-Fook

My eyes watch God from a place

Where times is hard hard times we embrace

Everybody want a yard cuz a yard means space

Being broke is odd and leaves an odd taste

In the mouth of the metropolitan

The hustle is hollarin'

Beautiful minds grind grind for the dollarin'

Whether dice scholarin' or white collarin'

We all taught hustle to prophet like Solomon

The young play corners Sean Jean modelin'

They get it from they momma black music is fatherin'

Blue and whites flash lights like parliment

In court non whites wishin' they had Cocharan

Tell your guy and them yo the blocks hot again

Aunties walking to liquor stores in moccasains

My guy got a gig on the side he barberin'

Married a foreign chick so she could get a green card up in the hustle

Just put it in your back and hustle

The paper's stacked so hustle

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Just move and shake and grind and hustle

It's on your mind so hustle

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

First to the third I'm close to the curb

Toast to the bird now I'm posted to serve

Heard is a verb when you pour dirt on the floor

Bill collectors and the roaches working your nerves

It's a ghetto truck for a ghetto boy

To get in them ghetto streets and get him a ghetto toys

So he can come so just work murder rate is increasin'

I don't give a f**k long as my coke is decent

And my rims blind the whole damn precinct

Every time you see a head in my lap you know she sinked

I know I'm dead in this trap that's not how we think

Fifty shells all around on the ground can't catch a weak blink

Five went through me two stayed in me to do my duty

Only thing that subdued me

Two weeks same corner new freaks

New geese all white and 1's new sneaks

Just put it in your back and hustle

The paper's stacked so hustle

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Just move and shake and grind and hustle

It's on your mind so hustle

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Can't knock the hustle the hustle I'm in

I'm in I'm in too deep deep to sleep can't knock the hustle

The hustle caught up in the hustle I'm gettin' high

Can't knock the hustle the hustle I'm in

I'm in I'm in too deep deep to sleep can't knock the hustle

The hustle gotta hustle up I got to have it have it have it

Some rhyme some throw shows some sow clothes

Some hobo at the junction inbetween cars

Some enter in functions inbetween stars

Some teach some preach saying they seen God

Some put they money up against me odds

Flippin' real estate yo stocks and bonds

Dreams of rollin' El Derado's bumpin' El DeBarge

Whatever the dreams stay on ya deem the world is ours

Just put it in your back and hustle

The paper's stacked so hustle

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Just move and shake and grind and hustle

It's on your mind so hustle

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Just put it in your back and hustle

The paper's stacked so hustle

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Just move and shake and grind and hustle

It's on your mind so hustle

Gon' gon' get it and get me that

Gon' gon' get it and get me that
