(feat. Taraji P. Henson (Shug)) [Chorus 2X: Shug - singing] + (Djay) You know it's hard out here for a pimp (you ain't know nigga) When he tryin to get this money for the rent (you ain't know nigga) For the Cadillacs and gas money spent (you ain't know nigga) [1] Because a whole lot of bitches talkin shit (you ain't know nigga) [2] Will have a whole lot of bitches talkin shit (you ain't know nigga) [Djay] In my eyes I done seen some crazy thangs in the streets Gotta couple hoes workin on the changes for me But I gotta keep my game tight like Kobe on game night Like takin from a ho don't know no better, I know that ain't right Done seen people killed, done seen people deal Done seen people live in poverty with no meals It's fucked up where I live, but that's just how it is It might be new to you, but it's been like this for years It's blood sweat and tears when it come down to this shit I'm tryin to get rich 'fore I leave up out this bitch I'm tryin to have thangs but it's hard fo' a pimp But I'm prayin and I'm hopin to God I don't slip, yeah [Chorus] [Djay] Man it seems like I'm duckin dodgin bullets everyday Niggas hatin on me cause I got, hoes on the tray But I gotta stay paid, gotta stay above water Couldn't keep up with my hoes, that's when shit got harder North Memphis where I'm from, I'm 7th Street bound Where niggas all the time end up lost and never found Man these girls think we prove thangs, leave a big head They come hopin every night, they don't end up bein dead Wait I got a snow bunny, and a black girl too You pay the right price and they'll both do you That's the way the game goes, gotta keep it strictly pimpin Gotta have my hustle tight, makin change off these women, yeah [Chorus]
