OutKast, Goodie Mob - Git Up, Git Out lyrics
[OutKast, Goodie Mob - Git Up, Git Out lyrics]
Nigga, you need to git up
Git out and git something
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't spend all your time tryna get high
You need git up, git out and git something
How will you make it if you never even try?
You need to git up, git out and git something
Cause you and I got to do for you and I
I don't recall, ever graduating at all
Sometimes I feel I'm just
A disappointment to y'all
Every day I just lay around
Then I can't be found
Always asking "Gimme some
" living life like a bum times is rough
My auntie got enough problems of her own
Nigga, you supposed to be grown
I agree, I try to be the man I'm 'posed to be
But negativity is all you seem to ever see
I admit, I've done some dumb shit
And I'm probably gon' do some mo'
You shouldn't hold that against me though
(Why not?) Why not? My music's all that I got
But some time must be invested
For this to be manifested
I know you know but I'm gon' say this to you
I get high but I don't get too high
So what's the limit 'posed to be?
That must be why you can't get yo
Ass up out the bed before three
You need to git up, git out
Cut that bullshit out
Ain't you sick and tired of
Having to do without?
Damn, what up with all these questions?
You act as though you know something I don't
Do you have any suggestions?
Cause every job I get is cruel and demeaning
Sick of taking trash out
And toilet bowl cleaning
But I'm also sick and tired of struggling
I never ever thought I'd to
Have resort to drug smuggling
Naw, that ain't what I'm about
Cee-Lo will just continue traveling his route
Without any doubt or fear
I know the Lord ain't brought me this far
So he could drop me off here
Did I make myself clear?
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't spend all your time tryna get high
Nigga
You need git up, git out and git something
How will you make it if you never even try?
You need to git up, git out and git something
Cause you and I got to do for you and I
That's why
Well, uh, get up, stand up, so what's said
You dickhead? See when I was a youngster
Used to wear them fucking Pro Keds
My mama made me do it but the devil
He made me smart
Told me to jack them weak ass
Niggas for they fucking Starters
In the middle school, I was a bigger fool
I wore with tank tops to show off my tattoo
Thought I was cool
I used to hang out with my daddy's brothers
I call them my uncles
They taught me how to smoke herb
I followed them when they ran numbers
So in a sense, I was Rosemary's baby
And then I learned the difference between
A bitch and a lady
Hell, I treat 'em all like hoes
See I pimped 'em bitch never had my money so
I never whipped 'em
See all the playas came and
All the playas went
A playa ain't a gangsta but a
Playa can handle his shit, bitch
You need to git up, git out, git something
Smoke out cause it's all about money, money
Money yeah I said it
A nigga sporting plait's and a Braves hat
I hang with Rico Wade cause the
Dungeon is where the funk's at, boy
I'm true to Organized cause they raised me
I'm also down with LaFace
Cause LA reid, yeah, he pays me
And it's cool
Yeah it's real cool getting paid fat pockets
And all that other fat shit like that, ha ha!
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't spend all your time tryna get high
Nigga
You need git up, git out and git something
How will you make it if you never even try?
You need to git up, git out and git something
Cause you and I got to do for you and I
That's why
A lot of people in my past tried to do me
Screw me throw me over in the fire
Let me get chunky and charred
Like a piece of wood and them
Spirit's got the mutant's mind
I'm getting paranoid and steady
Looking for the time
It's eight in the morning and
Ain't nobody up yet i got my long johns
Get my coat and throw on my ball cap
I'm headed out the door
To get off in my ride
I'm digging through the ashtray
Hoping to have a good day
I had Jamaica's best and when I light it up
I hear a voice in my head
(You got to git up
Git out and git something)
Now I know it's on, my day is finally started
Back up in my crib, eat
My shit, break out quick, in my slick
'84 Sedan DeVille, steady bouncing
Out the Point to Campbellton Road
The valley of the Southside flow
Everybody know about that killa
That we call blow, so
Keep your eyes peeled for the COBRA unit
Cause they known for jumping out of black
Chevy trucks and through the fog
Here come the Red Dogs
I'm busting out around the corner in my hog
Dipping from the area, I'm scared
So one of these bitches might wind up dead
Cause I have no time for jail
Fuck Clampett cops, fuck Eldrin Bell
And crooked ass Jackson
Got the whole country
Thinking that my city is the big lick for '96
'94, Big Gipp, Goodie Mo
OutKast, a vision from the past hootie Hoo!
My White Owls are burning kind of slow
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't spend all your time
Tryna get high nigga
You need git up, git out and git something
How will you make it if you never even try?
You need to git up, git out and git something
Cause you and I got to do for you and I
That's why
Y'all telling me that I need to
Get out and vote, huh, why?
Ain't nobody black running but crac-kers, so
Why i got to register? I thinking of better
Shit to do with my time
Never smelled aroma of diploma
But I write the deep ass rhymes
So let me take y'all way
Back to when a nigga
Stayed in Southwest Atlanta, ay
Y'all could not tell me nothing
Thought I hit that bottom rock
At age 13, start working at the loading dock
They laying my mama off of work
General Motors tripping
But I come home banked like Hank
From licking and dipping doing dumb shit
Not knowing what a nigga know now
Yeah, that petty shit will have you
Cased up and locked down i dips
Over to East Point still actin' a fool
Wasting my time in the school
I'd rather be shooting pool
Cool is how I played the tenth grade
I thought it was all about macking
Hoes and wearing pimp fade
Instead of being in class
I'd rather be up in some ass
Not thinking about them six courses
That I need to pass
Graduation rolled around like rolly-pollies
Damn, that's fucked up
I should've listened when my mama told me
That, if you play now, you gonna suffer later
Figured she was talking yang yang so
I payed her no attention
And kept missing the point she
Tried to poke me with the doper that I get
The more I'm feeling broke as shit
Huh, but that don't matter though
I am an O-U T-Kast so get up off your ass
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't spend all your time tryna get high
You need git up, git out and git something
How will you make it if you never even try?
You need to git up, git out and git something
Cause you and I got to do for you and I
You need to you need to
You need to you need to
Git out and git something
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up, git out and git something
Don't spend all your time tryna get high
