Pay Yourself

[Intro]
Yea
I paid myself, nigga
I paid myself
Yea

[Verse]
I'm a boss so I paid myself (Myself)
Shoot moves and I stay to myself (Myself)
Self made, boy I made myself (Myself)
Bossin' up, I had to pace myself (Yea)
Make 20 to 15 and bought five (Five!)
Make another 20, put it all to the side (Yup)
Used to ride buses disgusted with low pride
Now I'm the nigga with the Benz outside (That's my shit!)
Plug throw me somethin', no duckin', I don't hide (Nah)
I paid what I owe now he another lifeline (Yea)
Kids on the block want a watch like mine
But first you gotta check yo' mind; you gotta grind (Boy)
I knew a youngin', daily he would pump my shit
And gamble wit his pro's man, it didn't make sense
Was coppin' whole 'bows, now he back to a zip
Sayin' he fucked up and do I know about a lick
Nah, I don't rob–I don't want the karma
While you rich in your mansion niggas comin' to harm ya
You become the latest lick like you used to hit
I play the game by the rules–when I'm broke I don't trip
'Cause I'm bouncin' right back on a bitch (Bitch!)
Rollie full of flakes like crack on the wrist
Bought a half bird and came back with a brick
Took a Uber to the lot and came back in a six
Smilin' like Mitch, "Is you feelin' me, B?" (Feelin' me, B?)
You know the business went smooth if you was dealing wit me
I probably swept her off her feet if she was chillin' wit me
I'd rather pull my own triggers, but they killin' for me

Ugh!

But fuck all that, we on some other shit
If you able to move 'caine, then make your brother rich
I was dreamin' 'bout big chains,I need another flip
Stackin' every cent, I saved everything but a bitch (But a bitch!)
Still can hustle wit the cats I used to hustle wit
Still could do some trouble with the cats I got in trouble wit (Yup)
Now, who is you? I guess I'm 'posed to know your name, homes
To me you just another lame with a chain on (Boy)
What you gon' do when your minutes worth of fame gone?
Try to pull another stunt just to hang on?
They like, "What you into?" I say "The same old"
I keep my comments short because my change long

[Hook]
I'm a boss, so I paid myself (Nigga!)
Shootin' moves and I stay to myself
Self made, boy I made myself
Bossin' up, I had to pace myself (Gotta pace, yourself, dawg)

I'm a boss, so I paid myself
Shootin' moves and I stay to myself (Bosses pay theyself, man)
Self made, boy I made myself
Bossin' up, I had to pace myself, nigga

[Outro]
Tell these niggas, AK
I'ma teach you niggas how to get some money, man
Class in session
AK, you a fool for this beat
You know?
