Paul Wall - I Gotta Get It lyrics

I gotta get it, I gotta grind
I'ma put it down, I'ma get mine
But, you gotta get it, but you gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
I gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
Gotta, gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine

I'm on the road to success
I strive to be the best
I never settle for less
If I'm broke I can't rest
A hustler in the flesh
And I'm smoking on the best
Cuz I deal with lots of stress
Out here on this paper quest
I'm making progress, and I'm blessed oh yes
And I'ma get it to my last dying breath
Then it's in peace I rest
I'm working with that bread like


A chef when he cook
Now I'm back to flipping paper
Like I'm reading a book
Staying real with your partners that's
A real good look
But when your cash stash low
All your boys get shook
I been searching for that paper
Like it's Natalie Holloway
8 days a week, and I grind on holidays
There ain't no excuse for these
Boys to be broke
I know some hustlers in wheel chairs
We get it til we crock from south po
To south postal I gotta stack them C notes
So listen up close, say I gotta get it

I gotta get it, I gotta grind
I'ma put it down, I'ma get mine
But, you gotta get it, but you gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
I gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
Gotta, gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine

I gotta get them dollar signs
All of every kind
Partner, I need mine even them
Nickels and them dimes i'm out on the grind
Staying every lick I find
Going get it myself
There ain't no time to try and stand in line
I never fall behind
And yeah I'm full of that purple slim
But, I ain't dead yet, I'm just fine
I'm still in my prime
So I pack atleast a nine
Cuz haters trying to block my shine
Like mini blinds (I gotta get it)
As long as opportunity knock
I'ma get that gwop and give it all that I
Got until my coffin drop
The sun rise I'm the first
Hustler on the block and when the sun set
I'm still out here on the clock
I'm trying to hustle for them
Tickets like a traffic cop
I gotta hustle and get it
Partner I never stop i take that paper real
Serious like Dwight Schrute
Stacking up loot all around the 16 route

I gotta get it, I gotta grind
I'ma put it down, I'ma get mine
But, you gotta get it, but you gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
I gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
Gotta, gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine

I know the world in a recession
But, I'm still progressing
Take heed to my confession
Never fall to oppression
I learn from life's lesson if
You keep on pressing
You'll eventually end up on
Top like salad dressing
I'm never second guessing, like bye bye faith
And however long the race gotta maintain pace
When the haters fall to waist
Then my god grant grace
No matter what odds I face
I'ma be in first place
They hustle and the haste
To feed expensive taste but me
I got grind out there on that paper chase
They turn they back on clements
But, I'm still gon ride
Too many fish up in the water
Trying to float with the tide
No matter how high the gas
Price I'm still gon drive
Quite crying and complaining partner
Swallow your pride
While you blaming everybody for
Your same bad luck i'ma be on the come up
Sun down to sun up i gotta get it

I gotta get it, I gotta grind
I'ma put it down, I'ma get mine
But, you gotta get it, but you gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
I gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
Gotta, gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
