Say, this is the realist shit I ever wrote or I Wake up with it everyday and take it me to bed Hurting my heart and hanging my head 'Bout the realest nigga these streets ever bred
C L better known as Chad or Pimp C The closest that I ever had Now when we first met, we on the same page From pettiness understandings that got cleared up age
Two young who was ready to mash Put P A on the map and make a little cash Jumped down with Big Tyme, put a few songs Everybody co-signed that we could do no wrong
hit the streets with a big ass bang Them gangsta ass with that country ass twang Dropped, "Tell Me Something Good" took off and live Shit, next thing you know we was to Jive
Dropped, "Too Hard to Swallow" "A Full of Stones" Put the on "Menace" shit we had it going on Got, love in the streets and on the air But the homey us out, wasn't playing too fair
Had to ourself, bring in a new team But sometimes the side ain't always what it seems We dropped "Super Tight" a full of killer flows But then we got caught up the drugs and the hoes
We didn't what was happening on the real And new management was cutting room deals different money and concealing the price He had us doing all the work but was keeping the biggest
a while to catch on, to what homey was doing But by the we did, all the paperwork was in ruins Nigga kept all the receipts so we couldn't taxes The next thing you know, IRS us with axes
Pimp you owe figures, Bun you owe six get your paper together, get this shit fixed Remixed the team and tried it ourself out the GM, almost got put on the shelf
Fuck it, dropped "Ridin' Dirty" classic in the South Reclaimed the title, shut everybody's mouth Got some clout in the game, calling us the greatest But meanwhile me and Pimp is ducking haters
The old manager and say he fina' sue And put a padlock on the we trying to do Put a call out to the Prince, this nigga still We got heat for the streets, and we can't keep the people
He made a call to [Incomprehensible] and folks, the man You gotta cut UGK slack understand Young Pimp got the plan, Bun got the had our back and we just waiting on Jive
We got the big bosses on the page So me and Pimp went hit 'em from center stage Next thing you know we got this from the N.Y. It's Jay-Z saying y'all niggaz fly
He doing "Volume 3" and got a track from And wondered could trill niggaz rock it with him Shit big Bun was all for it, but wasn't sure But "Big Pimpin" hit 'em
Number one song on station you turn on MTV and BET we our burn on Grammy nominated can't believe that we it And we got a call from Jive left us all faded
And it stated, due to the success of the track We at Jive records, would like to piggy back Get another beat from Timb, then get a from Jay Let shoot the video and we'll be on the way
it sounded okay, but me I had to ask If we do Big Pimpin 2, would you still put us on blast A song like that 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 'em and went back to the basics Trying to find ways to get the fuck up out the
We put "Dirty Money" and it was aces But that's the time that Pimp caught two cases He got probation, said, "Fuck you hoes" We the album, got ready to do a couple shows
And then he violated, one month before we And just got put on hold or fucking stopped Now 30 days done, we to the nitty-gritty got released, big showdown in Chocolate City
Niggaz with masks on, vests and all Christmas 2000 and 1, bitch we was all that Strongest on the block, could budge And then he violated, now we back before the judge
They calling him a nuisance, put my dog a fence It was January 28th, he been home since Threw a nigga through a 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 back to or thugging So I into my bedroom, got down on my knees Put my hands and I prayed Lord please
Let me get past bridge over water that's trouble And get back up on my grind on the He said son don't worry 'cause it's not really as it seem And I can turn your back into dreams
You just got to stay to yourself and succeed Then away from the devil and get closer to me And every since that night man I promise I on it that killer flow to anybody who want it Pimp the pen like before, I'm breaking 'em G
Not to mention I got the world free Pimp C So as you make parole and they open the doors You gotta worry about nothing, the world is yours Ain't no mo' my nigga and no mo' stripe I it real because to me it's UGK for life
