Forget the Fame

(Lil' Flip)

I come from a hood where everybody standin on the corner

what you need some *****, speed, or some *********

you can get it right here or get it down there

but when the laws pull up get away from 'round there

now *****s think that *****s started changin

just cause a ***** got a platinum chain hanging

I still got the same *****s that I'm down with

if a ***** owe me money we gon'shoot down *******t

I use to sell work I use to sell pints

but now I'm doing *******t I gotta 3 million in the bank

I done made alot of moves i done paid alot of dues

and if you ***** with me, you might make tonights news

now *****s get on T.V and forget they partnas

the ones who keep it real come to your shows with the choppas

the one who bring that drank bring that ***** to ya house

My *****s down with me they, represent the south uh

(Chorus)

I want the money

I dont give a ***** about the fame

no matter how rich I get Lil' Flip will never change

I want the money

I dont give a ***** about the fame

I do this *******t so my partnas wont have ta slang cane

(Lil' Flip)

now everytime I get back somebody went to jail

but they taught us dont go to school and you'll fail

I didnt go to college but its money in my wallet

and I just bought a Jag with 0 mileage

now keep it like Flip you know I'm tryin to rap

and you was hatin on me ***** you might get slapped

ya telophone tap'ed ya got the hood hot matter of fact

it dont look good for you to be standing on the block

***** what about the cops they rollin and lookin

and everybody know what you sellin and cookin

so get yo mind right ***** stay out the streets

you seen what I did, now I play with these beats

(Chorus)

(Lil' Flip)

I'm like a hundred-dollar bill I'm hard ta change

and now its funny everybody aint acting the same

rule one never let *****s learn ya business

rule two never ever ever burn ya bridges

I had *****s that was hatin smilin in my face

way before "buy the car, by the house",n "diamonds N ya face"

now they see me in the streets like I wanna do a song

***** yous a hoe cry babies go home!

cause you aint selling records dont get mad

cause you see me ballin hard in a drop top Jag

when you see me at the source chunk up the duece

cause I represent Cloverland jumpin out my Coupe

I still gon' be the same ***** on the scene

I'm still gon' be the only freestyle king

(Chorus)
