E-40 - Nuttin' Ass Nigga lyrics

(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)
(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches, i'm not a nuttin'
Ass nigga, just down for my riches
I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)

I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches
I figure it takes about a million or 500
000 tapes
To become officially gold or platinum status
That's why I'm always at this
Practice, in and out the studio 24-7
My occupation, this is how I make my livin'
I get harassed mostly everywhere I go
Can't do my thing without
A motherfuckin' po-po
All up in my mix 'cause I'm tryna maintain
And get a grip on some lightweight fame
Born and raised in the valley South Vallejo
The northern part of Cali, 'bout my mail
Struggle and strive all my life
In a world of grief
Sucker motherfuckers wanna knock me
Off my feet
But, I'ma keep on steppin' and gettin' bigger
I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga

(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)
(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)

Not too long ago
I'm off to the bank to cash my check
The lady teller wouldn't give
Me no damn respect
She started acting hella snotty
Kinda prejudiced
I guess she didn't like the way
That a nigga was dressed
Before I could even get my foot in the door
Right the bitch already had a
Brother like me stereotyped
Ready to push the button with no delay'a
I said wait a minute, baby
You mistakin' me for Andre'a
I'm not a fail tail rat head wannabe
I wouldn't rob a fuckin' bank for publicity
I get it honestly, legally, so have no fear
I make more in a week than you do in a year
Straight out the ghetto, Hillside resident
Sick Wid It Records and tapes
And I'm the president
So don't go thinkin' that every
Brother's out to get ya
I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga

(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)
(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)
(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)
(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)

Sometimes my language is vulgar
Lots of profanity i try not to trip when
Kids' parents be sweating me
18 and over, that's what you gotta be
To purchase my tape and make sure you got ID
That's all I can say
So mommy and daddy need to peep
It ain't my fault the kids
Dub it off the streets
They hear it at school
Walkin' home and everywhere they go
And most of the violence come
From movies on HBO
The shit that I be spittin'
Is real 'cause I'm real, see
I'm out to make a mil, do you feel me?
Holdin' my own 'cause I'm
Grown and intelligent
Tryna knock my hustle? That
Shit is irrelevant

(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)
(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)
(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)
(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga
Just down for my riches)

(I'm not a nuttin' ass nigga)
