Serious

[Intro: T-Pain & E-40]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Mmm
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I get it in the mornin', yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause I'm so serious
I get it in the mornin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause I'm so serious
I'm so serious, man, listen up (Have it in the morning)

[Verse 1: E-40]
If you a true hustler, man, for real
You gon' bounce back if you got get-back skills
Fuck all that weepin' and whinin' and cryin', pissin' the bed
I'ma make it do what it do, get out and get my grits
I'm on that graveyard shift, my water bill past due
Hustlin', try to stay focused, got a 24-hour notice on my door
Business is slow, I speak the truth, blood pressure out the roof
A long way from being recession-proof, I'm going through
I ain't tryin' to be a deadbeat dad
I want my kids to have a better life than I had
My cellular off, need some more minutes, over my limit
Had the money but bought an ounce of weed, thought I could flip it
Man I'm niggerin', 'cause that's what some of us black folks do
Instead of paying the bill, we gonna buy the new Jordan shoe
Milk and diapers and baby wipes cost an arm and a leg
A breast, a wing, and a thigh, hustlin', tryna get by

[Chorus: T-Pain]
Hey, don't underestimate me
A couple of days is all it's gon' take me
'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that
I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'
Don't underestimate me
A couple of days is all it's gon' take me
'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that
I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'

[Verse 2: E-40]
Uh, I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of being broke
I'm sick of this sequel, man, I swear I hate reportin' to them people
Bro, I'm down on my luck, ain't got a buck to my name
Dirty testin', pissin' in a cup, what the fuck?
They found weed in my system, I told my girl I was quittin'
They sent me back to San Quentin for 90 days, did my time and got out
Now I'm in the unemployment line, tryin' to figure shit out
But the penal system got me by the necks, aha
With my troubled past, I can't even get me a job
My partner rap, he got his own record label, they doin' they thing
If I holler at him, maybe he can shoot me some change
Plus, I'm a loyal nigga, man, I learn quick, bro, I ain't stupid
All you gotta do is show me one time and I can do it
My fellow put a hustler under his wing, showed me the game
Now I'm doing my thang

[Chorus: T-Pain]
Hey, don't underestimate me
A couple of days is all it's gon' take me
'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that
I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'
Don't underestimate me
A couple of days is all it's gon' take me
'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that
I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'

[Verse 3: E-40]
I'm tryna stay out of trouble and triple, double, quadruple
This little change that I got by throwing a few concerts
But I'm not too sure if I'm ready to spend this mill'
The reason why is rap shows don't always go that well (Uh)
And the chances are that I probably won't recoup
So I'ma take this loot and book some old-school R&B soul groups
That way the venue insurance won't be that high
And plus, I'm minimizing the chances of somebody dying, that's right
I got a homie that work at the toll bridge
He make good money, plus he get benefits
He been hollerin' at me never-the-lessin'
Tryna get a nigga a job there, which is a blessin' (Uh)
But I don't think the homie really understand
I'm an entrepreneur, man, I ain't workin' for no white man
Attitude of a hood boy
All my life I been running from the Elroys, I'm serious

[Chorus: T-Pain]
Hey, don't underestimate me
A couple of days is all it's gon' take me
'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that
I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'
Don't underestimate me
A couple of days is all it's gon' take me
'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that
I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'
