Lyrics
You got to git up, git out and git something Don't let the days of your life pa** by You need to git up, git out and git something Don't spend all your time tryna get high You need git up, git out and git something How will you make it if you never even try? You need to git up, git out and git something Cause you and I got to do for you and I That's why Well, uh, get up, stand up, so what's said, you penhead? See when I was a youngster, used to wear them country Pro Keds My mama made me do it but the devil, he made me smart Told me to jack them weak suckers for they hooding Starters In the middle school, I was a bigger fool I worе with tank tops to show off my tattoo, thought I was cool I used to hang out with my daddy's brothers, I call them my unclеs They taught me, they taught me, I followed them when they ran numbers So in a sense, I was Rosemary's baby And then I learned the difference between a trick and a lady Hell, I treat 'em all like doughs, see I pimped 'em Witch never had my money so I never whipped 'em See all the playas came and all the playas went A playa ain't a gangsta but a playa can handle his business You need to git up, git out, git something Smoke out cause it's all about money, money, money Yeah I said it, a pimp sporting plaits and a Braves hat I hang with Rico Wade 'cause the Dungeon is where the funk's at, boy I'm true to Organized cause they raised me I'm also down with LaFace 'cause L.A. Reid, yeah, he pays me And it's cool, yeah it's real cool getting paid fat pockets And all that other fat stuff like that, yeah You got to git up, git out and git something Don't let the days of your life pa** by You need to git up, git out and git something Don't spend all your time tryna get high, high You need git up, git out and git something How will you make it if you never even try? You need to git up, git out and git something Cause you and I got to do for you and I That's why Y'all telling me that I need to get out and vote, huh, why? Ain't nobody black running but crac-kers, so, why I got to register? I thinking of better stuff to do with my time Never smelled aroma of diploma, but I write the deep-est rhymes So let me take y'all way Back to whipping dammies in Southwest Atlanta, ayy Y'all could not tell me nothing, thought I hit that bottom rock At age 13, start working at the loading dock They laying my mama off of work, General Motors tripping But I come home banked like Hank, from licking and dipping Doing dumb things, not knowing what I... know now Yeah, that petty stuff will have you cased up and locked down I dips, over to East Point still actin' a fool Wasting my time in the school, I'd rather be shooting pool Cool is how I played the tenth grade I thought it was all about macking goods and wearing pimp fade Instead of being in cla**, I'd rather be up in some, in some Not thinking about them six courses that I need to pa** Graduation rolled around like rolly-pollies Damn, that's messed up, I should've listened when my mama told me That, if you play now, you gonna suffer later Figured she was talking yang yang so I payed her no attention And kept missing the point she tried to poke me with The doper that I get, the more I'm feeling broke as sh*t Huh, but that don't matter though, I am an O-U-T-Kast So get up off your a** You need to git up, git out and git something Don't let the days of your life pa** by You need to git up, git out and git something Don't spend all your time tryna get high You need git up, git out and git something How will you make it if you never even try? You need to git up, git out and git something Cause you and I got to do for you and I You need to... You need to... You need to... You need to...
