[Verse 1] Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP Fuck it, miss me with that mess Coming for the belly when we run up in your address Get caught sleeping, take the money from the mattress Man know the roads, there's no need for atlas Tryna take all that you own and leave you cashless Cash rules everthing around me that matters So the purse strings are tighter than Thatcher's
Desperate times, desperate measures The news says we're in this together But everybody I know seems to know better Rob you for your diamonds when we feel pressure It's all fun and games 'til someone goes broke Break in your house, we heard you sold coke Catch you late night and snatch a gold rope While the news keeps saying keep calm and keep hope
[Chorus] Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me I gotta eat
[Post-Chorus] You know a brother's gotta eat, right? You know a brother's gotta eat, yeah a brother's gotta eat You know a brother's gotta eat, right? You know a brother's gotta eat (Hoo)
[Verse 2] I remember Frank laughed when I said I bought a stab-proof Couple weeks later ops ran up and poked him I was in the hospital sitting right beside him But I'm too good of a friend to start gloating Could have said, "I told you so because I told him" All the ends want is their watchface frozen A baddie named Elsa riding in the whip With a shank on the hip and a necklace golden And they'll be golden, yeah, right as rain Quicker than the weather your whole life can change This rat race might drive you insane I seen friends rob friends for lines of cocaine It's all fun and games 'til someone gets kidnapped Man are really with that, I know a few that did that Snub-nosed .38, don't care for your sixpack Try rob the wrong one, they might push your wig back
[Chorus] Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me I gotta eat
[Post-Chorus] You know a brother's gotta eat, right? You know a brother's gotta eat, yeah a brother's gotta eat You know a brother's gotta eat, right? You know a brother's gotta eat
[Chorus] Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP That means fuck all to me I gotta eat
[Post-Chorus] You know a brother's gotta eat
[Verse 3] When he ask how I feel, I reply that I'm fed up Some are drowning in money, I'm barely keeping my head up Price of life on the rise, I'm feeling like it's a setup 'Cause nobody that I grew with seems to be getting a leg up So we buy for five and sell it for ten Re-up another ninebar, sell it again The advert says that we need a brand new Benz But to get it some man are killing family and friends Yeah, chasing the dream, either make it or steal it Seems like the choices are take it or deal it No one need to be told there's hard times ahead When it comes crashing down poor people gonna feel it Let me make it clear, this wretched system isn't playing fair I couldn't give a fuck if this country hates me here They stole our people, displaced and placed us here And the only joy I get is when I bait the bear (Hoo)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
