Swizz Beatz, Cassidy, Angie Stone - I Get My Paper lyrics
[Swizz Beatz, Cassidy, Angie Stone - I Get My Paper lyrics]
Whose side are you leanin' on?
I'm leanin' on the Lord's side
I lean, I lean, I lean, I lean
I'm leanin' on the Lord's side
Whose side are you leanin' on?
I'm leanin' on the Lord's side
I lean, I lean, I lean, I lean
I'm leanin' on the Lord's side
Here's a story about a youngin'
That started off strugglin'
He didn't like his life so
He started off hustlin'
He was doin good in the hood with the cane
Whole hood knew his name
He had neighborhood fame
Now he stays dressed up
Just copped the fresh trucks
Stepped his rep up
Plus he stepped his connect up
But guess what
He don't even mess with his old niggas
They hatin' cause he makin'
More money those niggas
So one day when he was chillin on the block
Dealin' rock
Tryin' to make a killin' on the block
Some dudes came, masks down
Told him lay his ass down
Then they blasts rounds and started
Fillin' him with shots
He can't feel his legs
Got grazed in his head yo
He might be paralyzed but he
Could've been dead though
He on his bed yo, prayin' to God
If he survives that he promise
To stay on his side
Here's a story about a
Shorty chasin' the cream
Her daddy was an inmate
Her mommy was a fiend
Her grandmoms old so she couldn't
Get control of her
It was all love 'til the drugs
Took a hold of her
First it was liquor then it was weed
Then next came the wet then
The syrup and V's, e's
Oxy Contin, she poppin' them pills
And if you got a couple dollars
She'll hop in your wheel (For real)
Until one day a nigga with paper
Took her out
Got her pilled up then he raped up
Fam even had a camcorder and taped her
As soon as her high faded
Shorty felt violated
So she stopped gettin' high
All the damn time only person she could talk
To was her grandmom
Now every Sunday she be goin'
To church with her she leaned on the lord
Now he startin' to work with her
Here's a story about a
Young rapper named Cassidy
He started off at 13, I mean he actually
Signed his first deal when he was
Still goin' to high school
10th grade, way back then he was a fly dude
He played by the rules
Determined to get cake
He started off battlin' and
Rippin' the mixtapes
But he didn't take the same
Path that the rest do
He dropped a debut that was highly successful
That's when the respect came
That's when the checks came
He realized life is like
Playin' a chess game him and Swizz
They started makin' the next album
They say when you make
More money expect problems
But the problem that he faced was unheard of
They locked him up
No bail and charged him with murder
But now he got his freedom restored
And he livin' his dream that's why he
Leanin' on the side of the lord
I'm leanin' on the Lord's side
I lean, I lean, I lean, I lean
I'm leanin' on the Lord's side
Whose side are you leanin' on?
I'm leanin' on the Lord's side
I lean, I lean, I lean, I lean
I'm leanin' on the Lord's side
