(feat. STS)




[Black Thought]

Let me tell you what priceless is, some advice to give

A sacrifice is what I made for the wife and kids

They say life's a bitch, but it's one life to live

I want my baby where that cake and the icing is

Out of them crisis-es, off of them vices-es

They see what we do and grow up in all likenesses

Really I don't wanna see 'em having to fight for this

Story of the family biz, I'ma rewrite the script

Daughter of a Hip-Hopper, hustla like her grandpapa

Her destiny done been determined so you can't stop her

from being independent, earning paper and proper

More like a lawyer or a doctor, not a man watcher

That's where your man got ya, it's a big world out yeah

I'm tryna make a black diamond or a pearl out yeah

and hit the people to the way the world twirl out yeah

And when I thank heaven for my little girl



[Chorus: STS]

Please let her be a hustla, baby be a hustla

Hope my baby girl grows up to be a hustla

Let her be a hustla, baby be a hustla

If not, then you're only a customer

Please let him be a hustla, baby be a hustla

Hope my baby boy grows up to be a hustla

Let him be a hustla, baby be a hustla

If not, then you're only a customer



[STS]

Sugar Slim, I'm slicker than a squid, nigga no kids

No baby momma, Sugar freed from the drama

Sugar be where he wanna, no sweat/suite like a sonnet

No judge, your honor can't tell me how to raise mine

Figure that in due time, if and when I do find

true love, {?} maybe you can blue-line

Ooh I'm, caught up in the moment for the meantime

G I'm, all about the green like tree pines

See I'm, tryna get the scratch like a feline

Hoping that my seed don't know the struggle like me, I'm

hustling to make a buck, make a buck and fuck it up

Fuck it up and suck it up, then go and make another buck

Get the money, get the money, that's what I know

I'm hoping that my seeds know a little more than I know

I know, I know, but baby this what I know

If we ever settle down, well baby this what I hope
