Say, this is the realist I ever wrote or I said Wake up with it and take it with me to bed Hurting my heart and hanging my head 'Bout the nigga these Texas streets ever bred
C L Butler known as Chad or Pimp C The closest homeboy I ever had Now when we first met, we wasn't on the page From pettiness that got cleared up with age
Two young boys who was to mash Put P A on the map and maybe make a cash Jumped down with Big Tyme, put down a few Everybody saying that we could do no wrong
Then hit the with a big ass bang Them gangsta ass rhymes with that country ass Dropped, "Tell Me Something Good" took off and live Shit, next thing you we was signing to Jive
Dropped, "Too Hard to Swallow" "A Full of Stones" Put the remix on "Menace" we had it going on Got, love in the streets and on the air But the homey putting us out, wasn't playing too
Had to separate ourself, in a new team But sometimes the other side ain't always what it We dropped "Super Tight" a album full of flows But then we got caught up the drugs and the hoes
We didn't realize was happening on the real And new management was cutting room deals Hiding different money and the price He had us all the work but was keeping the biggest slice
Took a while to catch on, to what homey was But by the time we did, all the was in ruins Nigga kept all the receipts so we couldn't file The next you know, IRS hitting us with axes
Pimp you owe figures, Bun you owe six Better get paper together, get this shit fixed the management team and tried it ourself Cussed out the GM, got put on the shelf
it, dropped "Ridin' Dirty" instant classic in the South Reclaimed the southern title, shut mouth Got some clout in the game, boys us the greatest But meanwhile me and Pimp is still haters
The old calling and say he fina' sue And put a on the everything we trying to do Put a out to the Prince, this nigga still hating We got for the streets, and we can't keep the people waiting
He made a call to and folks, telling the man You cut UGK some slack understand Young got the plan, Bun got the drawl Rap-A-Lot had our back and we waiting on Jive
We got the big bosses on the page So me and young Pimp went hit 'em from stage Next thing you know we got this call the N.Y. It's Jay-Z saying niggaz getting fly
He "Volume 3" and got a track from Timb And wondered could some trill niggaz it with him Shit big Bun was all for it, but Pimp wasn't But "Big Pimpin" hit 'em
Number one on every station you turn on MTV and BET we our burn on nominated can't believe that we made it And we got a call from Jive that us all faded
And it stated, that due to the of the track We at Jive records, would like to piggy back Get beat from Timb, then get a verse from Jay Let Hype the video and we'll be on the way
Shit it okay, but me I had to ask If we don't do Big 2, would you still put us on blast A like that might take a nigga to the top But my true fan base, might think a nigga
got mad and put niggaz on hold For damn a year till the buzz got cold So we said fuck 'em and back to the basics Trying to ways to get the fuck up out the matrix
We put "Dirty Money" together and it was But around the time that Pimp caught two cases He got probation, said, "Fuck you hoes" We finish the album, got ready to do a couple
And then he violated, one month we dropped And shit just got put on or fucking stopped Now 30 days done, we back to the Album got released, big in Chocolate City
Niggaz masks on, vests and all black It's 2000 and 1, bitch we was all that on the block, nobody could budge And then he violated, now we right before the judge
They calling him a nuisance, put my dog behind a It was January 28th, he been home since Threw a through a loop and caught me in the crosses Standing cold, CEO, now I'm the boss
Had the devil on my back, got to and drugging Had to make a choice, get to rapping or thugging So I walked into my bedroom, got on my knees Put my together and I prayed Lord please
Let me get past this bridge over water trouble And get back up on my on the double He son don't worry 'cause it's not really hard as it seem And I can turn your back into dreams
You just got to stay true to and succeed Then push away the devil and get closer to me And every since that night man I I been on it Giving that killer flow to who want it Pimp the pen like never before, I'm 'em G
Not to mention I got the world free Pimp C So soon as you parole and they open the doors You ain't gotta worry nothing, the world is yours Ain't no mo' struggles my nigga and no mo' I it real because to me it's UGK for life
