Yo I'm doing the knowledge e I'm trying to get paid in full

Well check this out since Nobry Walters is our agency right

Okay so who we rollin' with

We rollin' with rush

Of rushtown management check this out since we talking over

This def beat that I put together I wanna hear some of them

Def rhymes know what I'm sayin' and together we can get

Paid in full

Thinkin' of a master plan

Cuz ain't nuthin' but sweat inside my hand

So I dig into my pocket all my money is spent

So I dig deeper but still comin' up with lint

So I start my mission leave my residence

Thinkin' how could I get some dead presidents

I need money I used to be a stick up kid

So I think of all the devious things I did

I used to roll up this is a hold up ain't nuthin' funny

Stop smiling be still don't nuthin' move but the money

But now I learned to earn cos I'm righteous

I feel great so maybe I might just

Search for a 9 to 5 if I strive

Then maybe I'll stay alive

So I walk up the street whistlin' this

Feelin' out of place cos man do I miss

A pen and a paper a stereo a tape of

Me and eric b and a nice big plate of

Fish which is my favorite dish

But without no money it's still a wish

Cos I don't like to dream about gettin' paid

So I dig into the books of the rhymes that I made

To now test to see if I got pull

Hit the studio cos I'm paid in full

Rakim check this out yo

You go to your girl house and I'll go to mine

Cause my girl is definitely mad

Cause it took us too long to do this album

Yo I hear what you're saying

So let's just pump the music up

And count our money

Yo well check this out yo Eli

Turn down the bass down

And let the beat just keep on rockin'

And we outta here

Yo what happened to peace

Peace peace peace
