[00:00:00] Hey look at this

[00:00:01] I was cleaning out my nest

[00:00:03] And I found a book of my old poetry

[00:00:15] Fresh out of school 'cause I was a high school grad

[00:00:17] Gots to get a job 'cuz I was a high school dad

[00:00:20] Wish I got paid like I was rappin' to the nation

[00:00:23] But thats not likely so here's my application

[00:00:25] Pass it to the man at AT&T

[00:00:28] 'Cuz when I was in school I got the a e e

[00:00:31] But there's no s e for this youngsta

[00:00:33] I didn't have no money so now I have to hunch the

[00:00:36] Back like a slave that's what be happenin

[00:00:38] But whitey says there's no room for the African

[00:00:41] Always knew that I would boycott jeez

[00:00:44] But welcome to McDonalds

[00:00:45] Can I take your order please

[00:00:47] Gotta sell ya food that might give you cancer

[00:00:49] 'Cuz my baby doesn't take no for an answer

[00:00:52] Now I pay taxes that you never give me back

[00:00:55] What about diapers bottles and similac

[00:00:57] Do I gotta go sell me a whole lotta crack

[00:00:59] For decent shelter and clothes on my back

[00:01:02] Or should I just wait for help from Bush

[00:01:05] Or Jesse Jackson and operation Push

[00:01:08] If you ask me the whole thing needs a douch

[00:01:10] A masengel what the hell cracker sale

[00:01:13] In the neighborhood

[00:01:14] To the whorehouse b**ches

[00:01:16] Miss porker little joe or Todd Bridges

[00:01:19] Or anybody that he know

[00:01:21] So I got me a bird better known as a kilo

[00:01:24] Now everybody know

[00:01:26] I went from po' to a ni**a that got dough

[00:01:30] So now you put the feds against me

[00:01:32] 'Cause I couldn't follow the plan of the presidency

[00:01:35] I'm never givin' love again

[00:01:37] 'Cuz blacks are too f**kin broke to be republican

[00:01:40] Now I remember I used to be cool

[00:01:43] Till I stopped fillin' out my W 2

[00:01:46] Now senators are gettin' hired

[00:01:48] And your plan against the ghetto backfired

[00:01:51] So now you got a pep talk

[00:01:53] But sorry this is our only room to walk

[00:01:56] 'Cause we don't want a drug push

[00:01:58] But a bird in the hand is worth more than the bush

[00:02:06] Tell the politicians the hustlers live and let live yeah

[00:02:12] Tell the politicians the hustlers live and let live yeah
