From the Get Rich or Die Tryin soundtrack. “What If” shows 50 dreamin about what would happen if he got rich and famous and how people, especially in the hood, would react to his decisions.
[Intro]
Yeah, I'm fuckin' with this
It's that classic shit, that gangsta shit, yeah
[Chorus]
Man I watched the sun go up but come down - sayin' what if?
Man I watched the tide roll in and roll out - sayin' what if?
Homie I play the block tryin' to get my packs off - sayin' what if?
Man if I get a shot, I could make it to the top - damn what if?
[Verse 1]
If I got on some pretty boy shit like Puffy
Niggas in the hood, man they just wouldn't love me
If I wore a suit every day like Jay-Z
Niggas would think I bump my fuckin' head and went crazy
If I put diamonds in my teeth like Baby
I wouldn't stand a chance of tryin' to sell like Shady
If I put out bullshit joints like AZ
Every chance niggas get, they'd try and play me
But I move around with a little .380
A nigga try to stunt, a nigga get sprayed B
If I smoked weed all day like Snoop do
I'd see the world different through my dilated pupils
If I bust dance moves on you like Usher
Niggas'll say "50 that ain't gangsta, fuck ya"
Man I'ma just keep doin' what I do
Cause niggas can't do me, better than I do, ha ha
[Chorus]
Man I watched the sun go up but come down - sayin' what if?
Man I watched the tide roll in and roll out - sayin' what if?
Homie I play the block tryin' to get my packs off - sayin' what if?
Man if I get a shot, I could make it to the top - damn what if?
[Verse 2]
What if I had blockbuster flicks like Will Smith?
And all the backpack niggas loved me like Mos Def
I'd probably be a cool-ass nigga like Ice Cube
Picture me in this flick right now lookin' so cool
What if I was a low-key nigga, just laid back?
Hustle to keep a homie 'round, somebody to hold the gat
Man what if Halle Berry was my next baby moms?
Shit I'd give that child support up with no problems
If I caught a case and jumped bail I'd get caught
Cause I'm that nigga everybody know from New York
But if I was the new rap nigga you didn't know
You'd be sayin' "Damn that kid got a sick flow"
What if I just cruised through your hood on 22's
Bumpin' Curtis Mayfield or Marvin, somethin' smooth
And if I let the top down on the Azure
Yeah that'd make you sick to your stomach I'm sure, ha ha
[Chorus]
Man I watched the sun go up but come down - sayin' what if?
Man I watched the tide roll in and roll out - sayin' what if?
Homey I play the block tryin' to get my packs off - sayin' what if?
Man if I get a shot, I could make it to the top - damn what if?
