old ass shit written/recorded in 1999
I'm broke as fuck, it took awhile to realize
That my funds are runnin' short like a 3-legged feline*
I can barely maintain, it's why I stay on the creep
And my parents are ballin' but lets just say they're major cheap*
I gotta rob some muthafuckas just so i can get paid
Instead of Ice, I got Zirconias, but it just aint the same*
I swear, if I was a crackhead, i'd be smokin' some flour
Coz I couldnt afford a sac at 5 dollars an hour*
You see these Cross Colours Jeans? Didnt have to spend no money
I aint rockin these muthafuckas coz i'm tryna to be funny*
It's coz i'm broke, sucka...., I got a cabinet full of Plastic Knives
I'l eat italian, and shake before the bill arrives*
And at my age, you can't afford to keep a hoe,
so instead, I'l just fuck the bitch and never see her no more*
So broke, I'd have to resort to sellin nickel bags of crack
So broke, the welfare office wants me to pay them back*
So broke, i'l have to hold a local bank as hostage
So broke, my food stamps would have to double as postage*
Spent my my last $200 on my new plastic Tec
And use it on the next person I scope cashin' checks*
Or maybe my AK will do the fuckin job
It's all good.... Let me round up my muthafuckin Mobb*
Here's the Game Plan, I know this muthafucka that be servin sacks
This sucka ran his lips, so lets stick him with the mac*
This sucka stacks chips, so let him be our next target
We Loaded up our shit and gettin' ready to spark it*
We shook out, and drove my new Pinto out to Frisco
The one without no speakers and a couple broken windows*
in the tenderloin where that trick ass sucka be slangin
caught his ass on leavenworth, doin nothing but hangin'*
started laughin when he saw us in the pinto ride
but little did he know I had the chopper on my side*
I aimed it at him, but the little bitch didn't pull out
Instead, he took off runnin to his muthafuckin house*
We got out the car, chasin down this fuckin crack whore
Thought he lost us when he merely slammed and locked his front door*
We kicked that shit down, sounds of yellin and screamin
Knocked over some tables with cocaine and triple beams*
Lead us to the fetti 'for yo ass gets shot
But when he didn't answer, kid... I aimed red dot*
Put an slug up in his ass, and mashed through his crib
Found some cases with c-notes, so we took it and slid*
Threw his body in a ditch and sent him to Heaven
And I aint broke no more, so switch it up to song 11*
So broke, i'm rockin' 10 year old ripped jeans
So broke, i'm not an 8, i'm a Section Sixteen
So broke, i'm livin off of government Swiss Cheese
So broke, that TLC made a fuckin' song that dissed me
editors note: "song 11" refers to a song on this particular album which is about how it would be like to be rich... sort of an inside joke.
