Change Up

[Intro]
Uh-huh, uh
Yeah, you know? It's the boy Wiz
Sometimes I gotta sit back and think, you know?
The audacity I have for these niggas man, you know?
But you know I just gotta focus on the positive, you know?
'Cause the negative ain't gon' do nothin' but— you know what I'm sayin'? Bring me down
And I've worked too hard to get where I'm at
I'ma guarantee you one thing, I ain't going nowhere
I'ma be right here, baby, 412
Uh-huh, and this the Prince
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Homie, we came up
Niggas hatin' 'cause not havin' paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of strugglin', so we hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up

[Verse 1]
Uh, look, homie, I'm from the ill gritty
City where they kill plenty
Lost some niggas along the way, some of 'em still with me
So why don't y'all come through
While the boys show you
How we livin' in the 412?
Where young niggas got no intentions of workin' jobs (Nah)
Cookin' that raw is they definition of workin' hard (Damn)
Chop it, bag it, hit the block and work it hard (Yeah)
Tired of strugglin', so we started hustlin'
Gotta bring that money in, didn't wanna run the streets
But lookin' at an empty plate'll make a nigga wanna eat
And get up on his feet, hustlin' and scramblin'
To fold or he'll let the cold world make a man of him
And fam, listen, pay attention to who you 'round
Another man can never pull you up, but he can pull you down (Yep)
This somethin' every real nigga can feel here
They hate me for the fact that I'm still here (And I ain't going nowhere)

[Chorus]
Homie, we came up
Niggas hatin' 'cause not havin' paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of strugglin', so we hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up

[Verse 2]
Yo, some say I mention drugs in every one of my songs
Not knowin' you ain't gotta be doin' wrong to get your hustle on
Long as you goin' hard
I was taught growin' up in Pittsburgh, shit, it means
Gettin' cake by any means
Niggas on that rap shit, niggas on that crack shit
Most niggas'll clap quick, end up on your back split
Some niggas'll nine to five and never make a pack flip
Tryin' to get that cheese, some niggas end up on that rat shit
'Round here, that's how you get sent into a backflip
Nothin' else to be said, my niggas tryna see bread
Tired of them stomach pains, niggas tryna keep fed
Fillin' up your pipe veins, green for the weed heads
City full of pipe dreams, believe me, I been sold those
Heavy chronic habit, we gon' need the whole zone
I stay higher than the Ozone Layer
I'm from the 'Burgh, nigga, don't go there

[Chorus]
Homie, we came up
Niggas hatin' 'cause not havin' paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of strugglin', so we hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up

[Verse 3]
I never backed or run away (No)
Slacked for one day (No)
Had somethin' on my chest and held back what I wanna say (Why?)
That's how I wasn't raised, manned up quicker
The young boy grew up into a stand up nigga (Yeah)
Fuck you, pay me, I demand them figures
I'm gettin' mine, shorty
We young niggas on the rise, on the grind, shorty
Had enough of the lies
Jealous niggas, I despise
Look in my eyes

[Chorus]
Homie, we came up
Niggas hatin' 'cause not havin' paper just ain't us
Take it from me, shit for free, nobody gave us
Tired of strugglin', so we hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up (Star Power)
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up (Wiz Khalifa)
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
Yeah, yeah, hustle to get the change up
