Dope Niggaz

[Intro: Lil Wayne]

Uh

[Verse 1: Lil Wayne]

I thank the Lord I'm not a broke nigga, I’m dope, nigga

Change my name, I ain't like average Joe, nigga

Up above wit' my above average ho, nigga

Tight frame with a tight cameltoe, nigga

I got killers on the front line, you on the sideline

Follow the guidelines or you be in the skyline

Killas on the inside, and on your blindside

Shoot you right between your motherfuckin’ eyebrows

Ooh, kill 'em—it's that "Carter V," let me get 'em

I'm feeling like John Gotti Lennon

And you gon' respect my mind and my sign and my emblem

You got money on your mind and we aimin' at your temple

Check me out or just be quiet in the library, nigga

Or the flowers on your grave gon' be dyin’ every winter

And as long as I’m alive I'm a financial wizard

Long as I can make a dollar out a dime and a nickle

Thank the Lord I’m not a broke nigga

[Chorus: Snoop Dogg]

I get money, I'm a hustler

So if you're buyin' what I’m sellin', you a customer

See I can get it to you anywhere, anything ('Thing)

But it's point-blank range when the pistol bang (Bang)

I mix it up, I fix it up and I switched it up (Up)

I locked down this end and got it twisted up (Up)

See, I'm a dog, but I loc with my locs (Lots)

They say, "You are what you smoke" (Smoke)

[Refrain: Lil Wayne]

I grew up around dope niggas

Uh, uh, uh, dope niggas

I grew up around dope niggas

Yeah

[Verse 2: Lil Wayne]

I grew up around dope niggas and cold killers

And most niggas was both, nigga, two sport niggas

I was no different from those niggas, but I was chose, nigga

See, those niggas saw more in me than these hoes, nigga

Momma was a go-getter, a coach, nigga

Taught me everything I know, nigga, a soul sister

Taught me how to be a goal tender, support system

For that bitch who played her role with ya and those children

I ain't lyin', slime, all my niggas balling, it's a fuckin' team sport

I could change the world, but I done lost the remote

All my niggas balling, that's how it's supposed to be, ho

I could change the world, I'd rather change to beast mode

Coke sniffers and dope stickers

And most niggas was both, nigga, explode, nigga

Pop a motherfuckin' cork, nigga, to those niggas

'Cause life's too fuckin' short, nigga—get old, nigga

I ain't lyin', got a gold mirror just to see my goals clearer

Be a role player, role model, while you roll with 'em

They say you don't need to be with us, stay on the road, nigga

That way I wouldn't come to the end of the road with 'em

Man, all my niggas targets, that's includin' me, ho

I could change the world, I'd rather change the people

And definitions 'cause we're defined by our legal roles

All your haters fuelin', and my needle broke

Lord, I ain't a broke nigga

[Refrain: Lil Wayne]

I thank the Lord I ain't a broke nigga

I thank the Lord I ain't a broke nigga

[Chorus: Snoop Dogg & Lil Wayne]

I get money, I'm a hustler

So if you're buyin' what I'm sellin', you a customer

See I can get it to you anywhere, anything ('Thing)

But it's point-blank range when the pistol bang (Bang)

I thank the Lord I ain't a broke nigga

I mix it up, I fix it up and I switched it up (Up)

I locked down this end and got it twisted up (Up)

See, I'm a dog, but I loc with my locs (Lots)

They say, "You are what you smoke" (Smoke)

[Refrain: Lil Wayne]

I grew up around dope niggas

Uh, uh, uh, dope niggas

I grew up around dope niggas

I thank the Lord I ain't a broke nigga
