Butch Cassidy sings about three kinds of theft – robbery, biting, and stealing your girl. Along the way, he expresses his allegiance to his fellow Dogg Pound associate and G-Funk singer, Nate Dogg.
Although this song was released in the late 2010s, it’s possible it was written around the late 2000s...
[Verse 1]
Up early in the mornin', yawnin'
All stressed out, what a way to bring the dawn in
Gotta make some dough before I start pawnin'
I'm ponderin', once again
Pacin' back and forth, mind feels insane
And then I get high as the games begin
High goes down, stressed out, times ten
And then I start to think a nigga just can't win
[Bridge]
I got kids to feed
(Kids to feed)
I got bills to pay
(Bills to pay)
With my nine by my side
(With my nine by my side)
In a jacker mind state
(In a jacker mind state)
[Chorus]
Give it up
Give it to me
Hand it all over, so smoothly
Give me yours
'Cause I want it
I been plottin' and schemin', I'm on it
[Verse 2]
Later on in the evеnin', start leavin', 'cause I might start decеivin'
And you might hear a --
That's for all ya niggas taking our style
You ran off, and you had a few hits, then you step up on the mic
Didn't bank us for shit
Your paper stacked, and your life begin to crack
But it's time to get ya back, 'cause it's just like that
Nate Doggy, cuz got ya back, until ya get back on your feet, I'm gonna make shit crack
They stole, didn't even hesitate, so I got to give a taste of my jacker mind state
[Chorus]
Give it up
Give it to me
Hand it all over, so smoothly
Give me yours
'Cause I want it
I been plottin' and schemin', I'm on it
[Verse 3]
No jackin' for beats this week, but I'm gonna jack ya girl and break her off in the sheets
I from the jungle of the concrete streets where you gotta jack a fool if ya really wanna eat
Give it up, give it up, give it to me
Jackin' too much, they wanna da-da-do me
But they might hear a --
How you motherfuckas like me now?
[Mid 8]
It's just a state of my mind
Hit 'em up, split 'em up, leave 'em behind
I'm comin', Lord, give 'em a sign
Jack 'em all up, tell 'em it's my time
[Chorus]
Give it up
Give it to me
Hand it all over, so smoothly
Give me yours
'Cause I want it
I been plottin' and schemin', I'm on it
