99 Cent Lyrics

[produced by Xaviles]



[Verse 1]

Project doors open like (voilà!)

Out comes the fiends and diseases (shatters)

Titties in her bra looking for the top (dollar)

Fellatio the ratio, two to one (swallow)

Young money niggas trying to be the big (papa)

The Bs and the Cs, and Vice Lord Ds and

Uncle upstate wit' about two nieces

Nephews respect you, fuck you (father)

Mother two jobs, she ain't never had (proper)

Sleep in the night, working 24 (hours, hours)

City so fucked up (How-a)

Teachers gettin' laid off, schools gettin' caved off

Cops gettin' paid off, money mo' (power)

Hard for me to smile, these are daylight (showers)

Niggas Benedict Arnold, so (cowards)

Bitchin' and the snitchin' make 'em fall, (Twin Towers)



[Hook x2]

This is what it is, and this is what it's gon' be

Nigga where I'm from another life only cost me

Ninety nine cent, ninety-ninety nine cent

Ninety nine cent, ninety-ninety nine cent



[Verse 3]

Ain't nobody give a fuck

There they go, hit 'em up

Gas so high, niggas rob just to fill it up

Globe full of mayhem, these are the days when

Violence is senseless, kids gettin' sprayed in

Philly goin' ham, Ingle-Inglewood bacon

Chi-town angus, Prov City dangerous

Eyes on the capital, niggas stay persistent

Don't forget the white collar, ain't nobody different

Schemes of the Ponzi, devil tryna tempt me

Fallin' for that bullshit, retirement is empty

Peter pays Paul right before he robs Patrick

Disregard your snapback, that's the true hat trick

Practice? Practice? People this is Iverson gametime

I ain't trying to lose, you never take mine

Take your life, I gotta save mine



[Hook x2]



[Outro]

Fake wars, inflation

Racism, education

Genocide, homicide

Immigration, sexism

Ignorance, monopolies

Revised laws, why you stoppin' me?

Homophobia, radicals

I'm on one, Jon Hope
