lirik lagu dead prez - hell yeah (pimp the system)

holton street
dean street (click clack)
president (uh huh)
nostrand ave (dp)
orange ave (rbg)
tee town (who wanna ride?)
brooklyn
come on, come on

sittin’ in the living room on the floor
all the pain got me on some migraine sh-t
but i’m gonna maintain
n-gg- got 2 or 3 dollars to my name
and my homies in the same boat going through the same thing
ready for a cake better plot for the paper
we been living in the dark since april
on the candle gotta get a handle
my homie got a 25 automatic added to the gamble
n-gg- get the phone book look up in the yellow page
lemme tell you how we fend to get paid
we gonna order take-out and when we see the driver
we gonna stick the 25 up in his face
lets ride, stepping outside like warriors
head to the notorious southside
one weapon to the four of us
hiding in the corridor until we see the beam from the car headlights
white boy in the wrong place at the right time
soon as the car door open up he mine
we roll up quick and put the pistol to his nose
by the look on his face he probably sh-tted in his clothes
“you know what this is, it’s a stick up,
gimme the dough from your pickups
you ran into the wrong n-gg-z”
we running down the block hot with these texa boxes
so we split up and met back at the apartment

h-ll yeah (yo ain’t you hungry my n-gg-?)
h-ll yeah (you wanna get paid my n-gg-?)
h-ll yeah (ain’t you tired of starving my n-gg-?)
h-ll yeah (well lets ride then)
h-ll yeah, h-ll yeah

i know a way we can get paid you can get down but you can’t be afraid
let’s go to the dmv and get a id
the name says you but the face is me
now it’s your turn take my paper work
like 1, 2, 3 lets make it work
then, fill out the credit card application
and its gonna be bout 3 weeks a waiting
for american express discovery card
platinum visa, master card
cause we was spooked as sh-t like we was targets
now we just walk right up and say “charge it!”
to the game we rocking brand names
well known at the department store chains
we even got the boys in the crew a few things
po po never know who to true blame
sto’ after sto’ you know we kept rolling
wait two weeks report the card stolen
repeat the cycle like a like a laundry mat
like a glitch in the system it’s hard to catch
coming out the mall with the shopping bags
we can take it right back then get the cash
yea, get a friend and then do it again
d-mn right that’s how we paid the rent

h-ll yeah
time to get this paper
i’m down for the caper
we’re steady on the grind
it’s a deadly struggle
we all gotta hustle
this is the way we survive
(repeat)

i know a caper
we can get some government paper
you know food stamps can we really do that
h-ll yea, right there for the taking
f-ck welfare we say reparations
and, uh, you know the grind
get up early get in the line and just wait
everybody on break that’s part of the game
and when they call your name
“ms. case worker let my state my claim
i’m homeless, jobless, times is hard, i’m ’bout hopeless
but i gotta eat regardless
no family to run to i’m 22
now tell me where the f-ck am i supposed to do”
my sad story made her feel close to me
i made her feel like it was an emergency
when i came to the crib n-gg-z couldn’t believe
i came back with a big bag of groceries (h-ll yeah)

every job i ever had i had to get on the first day
i find out how to pimp on the system
two steps ahead of the manager
getting over on the regular tax free money out of the register
and when i’m working late nights stockin’ boxes i’m creepin’ their merchandise
and don’t put me on dishes i’m dropping them b-tches
and taking all day long to mop the kitchen sh-t
we ain’t getting paid commission, minimum wage, modern day slave conditions
got me flippin’ burgers with no power
can’t even buy one off what i make in an hour
i’m not the one to kiss -ss for the top position
i take mine off the top like a politician
where i’m from doing dirt is a part of living
i got mouths to feed dog i gots to get it

h-ll yeah (you down to roll my n-gg-?)
h-ll yeah (you ready to get your hands dirty my n-gg-?)
h-ll yeah (your woman need money and things my n-gg-?)
h-ll yeah (well lets ride then)
h-ll yeah

if you claiming gangsta
then bang on the system
and show that you ready to ride
till we get our freedom
we got to get over
we steady on the grind
