Serious

[Intro: T-Pain & E-40]

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Mmm

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I get it in the mornin', yeah, yeah, yeah

'Cause I'm so serious

I get it in the mornin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

'Cause I'm so serious

I'm so serious, man, listen up (Have it in the morning)

[Verse 1: E-40]

If you a true hustler, man, for real

You gon' bounce back if you got get-back skills

Fuck all that weepin' and whinin' and cryin', pissin' the bed

I'ma make it do what it do, get out and get my grits

I'm on that graveyard shift, my water bill past due

Hustlin', try to stay focused, got a 24-hour notice on my door

Business is slow, I speak the truth, blood pressure out the roof

A long way from being recession-proof, I'm going through

I ain't tryin' to be a deadbeat dad

I want my kids to have a better life than I had

My cellular off, need some more minutes, over my limit

Had the money but bought an ounce of weed, thought I could flip it

Man I'm niggerin', 'cause that's what some of us black folks do

Instead of paying the bill, we gonna buy the new Jordan shoe

Milk and diapers and baby wipes cost an arm and a leg

A breast, a wing, and a thigh, hustlin', tryna get by

[Chorus: T-Pain]

Hey, don't underestimate me

A couple of days is all it's gon' take me

'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that

I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'

Don't underestimate me

A couple of days is all it's gon' take me

'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that

I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'

[Verse 2: E-40]

Uh, I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of being broke

I'm sick of this sequel, man, I swear I hate reportin' to them people

Bro, I'm down on my luck, ain't got a buck to my name

Dirty testin', pissin' in a cup, what the fuck?

They found weed in my system, I told my girl I was quittin'

They sent me back to San Quentin for 90 days, did my time and got out

Now I'm in the unemployment line, tryin' to figure shit out

But the penal system got me by the necks, aha

With my troubled past, I can't even get me a job

My partner rap, he got his own record label, they doin' they thing

If I holler at him, maybe he can shoot me some change

Plus, I'm a loyal nigga, man, I learn quick, bro, I ain't stupid

All you gotta do is show me one time and I can do it

My fellow put a hustler under his wing, showed me the game

Now I'm doing my thang

[Chorus: T-Pain]

Hey, don't underestimate me

A couple of days is all it's gon' take me

'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that

I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'

Don't underestimate me

A couple of days is all it's gon' take me

'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that

I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'

[Verse 3: E-40]

I'm tryna stay out of trouble and triple, double, quadruple

This little change that I got by throwing a few concerts

But I'm not too sure if I'm ready to spend this mill'

The reason why is rap shows don't always go that well (Uh)

And the chances are that I probably won't recoup

So I'ma take this loot and book some old-school R&B soul groups

That way the venue insurance won't be that high

And plus, I'm minimizing the chances of somebody dying, that's right

I got a homie that work at the toll bridge

He make good money, plus he get benefits

He been hollerin' at me never-the-lessin'

Tryna get a nigga a job there, which is a blessin' (Uh)

But I don't think the homie really understand

I'm an entrepreneur, man, I ain't workin' for no white man

Attitude of a hood boy

All my life I been running from the Elroys, I'm serious

[Chorus: T-Pain]

Hey, don't underestimate me

A couple of days is all it's gon' take me

'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that

I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'

Don't underestimate me

A couple of days is all it's gon' take me

'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that

I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'
