Say, is the realist shit I ever wrote or I said up with it everyday and take it with me to bed Hurting my heart and hanging over my 'Bout the realest nigga these Texas ever bred
C L Butler better known as Chad or C The homeboy that I ever had Now when we first met, we wasn't on the same From pettiness that got cleared up with age
Two boys who was ready to mash Put P A on the map and make a little cash down with Big Tyme, put down a few songs 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 Good" took off and went live Shit, next you know we was signing to Jive
Dropped, "Too to Swallow" "A Pocket Full of Stones" Put the remix on "Menace" shit we had it on Got, in the streets and played on the air But the homey putting us out, playing too fair
Had to separate ourself, in a new team But sometimes the other ain't always what it seems We dropped "Super Tight" a full of killer flows But then we got caught up with the and the hoes
We didn't realize what was happening on the And new was cutting back room deals Hiding money and concealing the price He had us doing all the work but was keeping the slice
Took a while to on, to what homey was doing But by the we did, all the paperwork was in ruins Nigga kept all the so we couldn't file taxes The next thing you know, IRS hitting us with
you owe seven figures, Bun you owe six Better get your paper together, get shit fixed Remixed the management team and tried it Cussed out the GM, almost got put on the
Fuck it, dropped "Ridin' Dirty" instant classic in the Reclaimed the southern title, shut everybody's Got some in the game, boys calling us the greatest But meanwhile me and is still ducking haters
The old manager calling and say he sue And put a padlock on the everything we to do Put a call out to the Prince, this still hating We got heat for the streets, and we can't the people waiting
He a call to [Incomprehensible] and folks, telling the man You gotta cut UGK slack understand Pimp got the plan, Bun got the drawl Rap-A-Lot had our and we just waiting on Jive
We got the big on the same page So me and young Pimp went hit 'em from center Next thing you know we got this call the N.Y. It's saying y'all niggaz getting fly
He "Volume 3" and got a track from Timb And wondered could some trill rock it with him Shit big Bun was all for it, but wasn't sure But "Big Pimpin" hit 'em
one song on every station you turn on MTV and BET we our burn on Grammy nominated can't believe that we it And we got a from Jive that left us all faded
And it stated, that due to the of the track We here at Jive records, like to piggy back Get another beat from Timb, get a verse from Jay Let Hype shoot the and we'll be on the way
it sounded okay, but me I had to ask If we don't do Big Pimpin 2, you still put us on blast A song like that might a nigga to the top But my fan base, might think a nigga flop
They got mad and put niggaz on For near a year till the buzz got cold So we said fuck 'em and went to the basics Trying to find ways to get the up out the matrix
We put "Dirty Money" and it was aces But around the time that Pimp caught two cases He got probation, said, "Fuck you hoes" We finish the album, got to do a couple shows
And then he violated, one month before we And shit just got put on hold or stopped Now 30 days done, we to the nitty-gritty Album got released, big showdown in Chocolate
Niggaz masks on, vests and all black It's Christmas 2000 and 1, we was all that Strongest on the block, could budge And then he violated, now we right before the judge
They calling him a nuisance, put my dog a fence It was January 28th, he ain't home since Threw a through a loop and caught me in the crosses Standing cold, CEO, now I'm the boss
Had the on my back, got to drinking and drugging Had to make a choice, get to rapping or thugging So I walked into my bedroom, got down on my Put my hands together and I Lord please
Let me get past this over water that's trouble And get back up on my grind on the He said son don't 'cause it's not really hard as it seem And I can turn your nightmares back dreams
You just got to stay to yourself and succeed Then away from the devil and get closer to me And every since that man I promise I been on it Giving that killer flow to anybody who it the pen like never before, I'm breaking 'em G
Not to mention I got the world screaming Pimp C So soon as you make parole and they open the You ain't gotta worry about nothing, the world is Ain't no mo' struggles my and no mo' stripe I kept it real because to me UGK for life
