E-40, Park Ave. - I'm Serious lyrics

Super bossy, no duplicate or a copy
The realest in it
I could turn a hour into a minute
I meant it, there's nothing new to a fixture
I'm off this liquor
Gettin' toasted and twisted
Elevated and lifted
Money on my mind all the time until I resign
Thumper by my spine
Out here pushin' a hard line
If you ain't notice me, man
You probably blind
If you a sucker, man, then you probably lyin'
I been around the world and back
And overseas
All across the map, rap shows and makin' G's
Livin' life to the fullest
And celebratin' my legacy
Duckin' and dodgin' them bullets, man
Some don't make it past 23
Refuse to be my own enemy
Love the Lord and my family
Haters throw shade and they block
My shine like a canopy
I made it out the cage, out the trap
Up outta captivity
Stay in they face, on the case
They can't get rid of me

I'm serious about my money
I'm serious you know I'm always on my grind
I'm serious about my money
I'm serious i'ma get money 'til I die

Money mackin', what's happenin'
Gettin' my paper
I'm stackin' to see more ice than Alaska's
I'm outlastin'
The doubters, that haters, the nonbelievers
Deceivers
The evildoers, the traders, the naysayers
You ain't gotta do nothing to anybody
To get bit by a shark
Fools will hate you with all their heart
Gotta play it smart, be woke after dark
Do yo' part keep ya stick next to ya
'specially when you ridin' a la carte
Solo bolo dolo, lookin' out for the po-po
Life can be long or it
Can be shorter than Frodo i can be wrong
But I'm normally right like a uncle
Smokin' the cone
I like to chief like I'm Tonto
I'm in my zone, almost at home
We on the phone talkin' hella grown
She say she tryin' to get it on
Make her moan when I bone when I run up in it
Put a smile on her face when I finish

I'm serious about my money
I'm serious you know I'm always on the grind
I'm serious about my money
I'm serious i'ma get money 'til I die

I really gotta have it (Gotta have it)
'Cause my family, they gotta eat
(They gotta eat man)
And I can't live without it
(Can't live without it)
'Cause, I know they depend on me
(They dependin' on me)

Thankin' the Lord for every moment
That He let me breathe
Thankin' the Lord for all my
Friends and all my family
If it wasn't for You, it wouldn't be me
I know that's fa'sho'
You gon' have my back forever
Even if I go broke
Even if I go broke, you know I move mean
I got get back skills
Bounce back like a trampoline
Martin Luther had a dream in the 60s
No color line when it was black and white TVs
I'm grateful, I'm thankful, appreciate it
No doubt been in the game for a minute
Got hella status and clout
I bought, it ain't rented, got me a mansion
A house soon as they get it, they spend it
That ain't the way I was taught
Put somethin' up for a rainy day
Mama'nem use to say
They say life ain't promised tomorrow
And life ain't promised today
Surround yourself with good people
Good people hard to come by
Give 10 percent for your tithes
That's the good in God's eyes

I'm serious about my money
I'm serious you know I'm always on the grind
I'm serious about my money
I'm serious i'ma get this money 'til I die

Oh yeah hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey oooh
