Way back then it was simple
I didn't need much and there were far less issues
A lot less i miss you's I must confess i did use
My time unwisely till I got my mind right
Like f*ck these guys i need me
A better life that a simple 9 to 5 can't provide
Shit i recall i couldn't get a job
So i figured I aint need one,
Hustling after school making beats up
Tony showed me that coke lets you move like them visas
So my fingers started making all these keys up
Mom, I know you got a genius but Harvard too expensive
And these scholarships need a, 9 digit number
That i didn't have at the time, which at times, makes me wonder
What would've happened had I had it had I been inside those classes
Interested in something more than rapping and these mathematics
Or, would the decision be the same,
Putting my heart up in this game
In the search for some fortune and some fame
They used to say damn he's crazy
Will he make it, maybe
They taught me to say f*ck you pay me
At least thats what I was told bitch i'm coming for what i'm owed
This is tax time (Cash is king)
This is tax time (I need me some fancy things
This is tax time (Cash is king)
Bitch its tax time (I need me some I need me some fancy things)
They be like oh my bad
I didn't mention IRS in the econ class
They didn't even mention credit but i'm in my bag
To get it some supremacist probably get so mad
Meanwhile i'm slapping toe tags on these tracks
Deposits work but cash is preferred and i'm just
Heating up its Jay Picasso at work
Like the great Mike i'm just palming a verse
From the first to the first
Chris got a full ride everything paid for
Meanwhile homie caught a case for
Sinking a knife in em, two sides of the same coin
But two different worlds they flipped in, decisions
Because both their parents live in the same conditions of privilege
Thats some shit so I kept my distance and mind mine
A couple years gone is a life time
Either way i know they both respect it by the way I get it, ugh
They used to say damn he's crazy
Will he make it, maybe
They taught me to say f*ck you pay me
At least thats what I was told bitch i'm coming for what i'm owed
This is tax time (Cash is king)
This is tax time (I need me some fancy things
This is tax time (Cash is king)
Bitch its tax time (I need me some I need me some fancy things)
I need De La Renta for my momma
Some Prada, Versace for my dad 100,000 in hand
I need my children's tuition paid for
Way before they need it, or understand the system
Dreams coming to fruition, i'm happy that I listened
I need me some Christian for my sister
The same for the wifey or the mistress
Rollie's for my brothers, i know you see the vision
And a big bitch i made it if you missed it
They used to say damn he's crazy
Will he make it, maybe
They taught me to say f*ck you pay me
At least thats what I was told bitch i'm coming for what i'm owed
This is tax time (Cash is king)
This is tax time (I need me some fancy things
This is tax time (Cash is king)
Bitch its tax time (I need me some I need me some fancy things)
