Yo Gotti - The Art Of Hustle Lyrics






My City

My teacher asked me what I wanted to be
I stood in front of the whole class and I told her I wanted to be a gangsta

Every day somebody's killed in these streets
Whether innocent or guilty
(It's my city nigga)
And you don't have to travel to another world
'Cause there's a war zone in my city
(Shit a war zone out here)
Oh Memphis, oh Tennessee
No other place will be home for me (Ever)
All the people, all the struggle
In a world full of fakes my city made me a real hustler (Hustler)
(True hustler)

First Three Six break up, and every day I wake up
A nigga got a problem with me
I got a hundred clips, a hundred guns, a hood full of killers
And I dare something could happen to me
See my city at a different state, it's no honor
We used to have to make it through the year now it's the summer
And everybody mob somthin', everybody rob somethin'
Everybody scrap and everybody shot somethin'
Young niggas like ISIS (Terrorists)
Killin' like they got a license
Life used to be priceless now it's worthless
Niggas gone on missions ain't even worth it
Homie chill (chill), lil homie chill (Chill)
Lil homie don't respect the big homies no more
Drakos and choppers, no more handguns no more
Four deep, four hundred shots, everybody under 16
I remember I was getting' bricks for the 16 the city changed nigga

Every day somebody's killed in these streets
Whether innocent or guilty
And you don't have to travel to another world
'Cause there's a war zone in my city
Oh Memphis, oh Tennessee
No other place will be home for me
All the people, all the struggle
In a world full of fakes my city made me a real hustler

You know it's rules and regulations when you king of the city
And niggas comin' for the throne, some niggas don't make it home
I ain't talkin' that rap shit, I'm speaking 'bout real beef
Where big homies can get wet and niggas can't get sleep
Put a 10 on a nigga, f*ck that put a 50, make his friend do the nigga
This Memphis, Ten, nigga
Home of the poverty, home of the robberies
I be goin' through some real shit like nigga don't even bother me
It's goin' down in the DM
Nah nigga it's goin' down when I see him
Biggest record of my career, I'm becomin' a star
And I'm shootin' a AR out the car
Look at your favorite rapper
Just be patient, he gon' f*ck up, he a Memphis nigga
Maybe I will, maybe I won't
Thuggin' in a nigga
Money don't change that, fame can't change that
I've done shit to niggas in the streets I can't take back
So every second of my life I got a gun and I hate that
But this Memphis, if you get caught without you gon' regret that
So f*ck it

Every day somebody's killed in these streets
Whether innocent or guilty
And you don't have to travel to a foreign land
'Cause there's a war zone in my city
Oh Memphis, oh Tennessee
No other place will be home for me
All the people, all the struggle
In a world full of fakes my city made me a real hustler

Bible

Yeah, hand on my gun, hand on my bible

Jackboy, I sell his ass a brick of flour
Hand on my gun, hand on my bible
Hand on my gun, hand on my bible
Hand on my gun, hand on my bible
Praying to my gun it be my bible

Imma dope boy, never fold, never told, ran on overload
In the kitchen with the stove, baking soda, pot and bowl
Swear to God I'll kill a nigga then repent
I'm a millionaire and I grind for every cent (Amen)
Plug came that's a blessing
F*ck these hoes I ain't stressing (Never)
Leave the house with no weapon
Make sure the money right no discrepancies
Grind mode
Young nigga had a quarter pound but he stayed down, front row at the SuperBowl
Team strong we campaign pop champagne win the SuperBowl
I can change the flow up (Flow up)
I can take that work inside the kitchen make it blow up
You want a sack I make it show up (Show up)
Don't make me bring that Lam out just to pick your hoe up (Lil nigga)

Praying to my gun it be my bible
Me and two bitches in the shower
Too sauced up on these hoes, I'm going viral

Dope boy I got money and the power (Preach)
My job pay 100 grand a hour (Preach)
My hoe want me to f*ck her in the shower (Preach)

Little money nigga we ain't never accepted that
Big choppas any beef you know we dealt with that

Me and two bitches in the shower
Too sauced up on these hoes, I'm going viral

Hand on my gun, hand on my bible
Praying to my gun it be my bible

Church, hand on my gun hand on my bible
Fingers on the trigger like vagina
The bible open right there on the dresser, I just pray that all my enemies are watching me from heaven
Now I'm peeking 'round the corner before I turn that muthaf*cka
I played them corners like I'm Richard Sherman muthaf*cka
I play in my position on these niggas 1st and 10
Treating that prescription like a scripture amen
Now we in the kitchen with the chickens and the hens
Lord please forgive us but we sinning for the rent
I just popped 2 pills I feel them bitches kickin in
0-100 got a ticket in the Benz
Show me where the bible say thou shall not ball
I just hit a lick for a thousand Adderalls
I just rolled a blunt up in a page from the bible
And all my niggas psycho and all my bitches spiteful
John 3:16

Praying to my gun it be my bible
Me and two bitches in the shower
Too sauced up on these hoes, I'm going viral
Jackboy, I sell his ass a brick of flour
Hand on my gun, hand on my bible
Hand on my gun, hand on my bible
Hand on my gun, hand on my bible
Praying to my gun it be my bible

Hand on my bible
Hand on my bible
Hand on my gun, hand on my bible

The Art Of Hustle

[Intro:]
Law #1: never underestimate the enemy
See this a very important law Law 2: if a man how a flaw that mean that flaw really exist
Never take it for granted never
Rule #3: make sure you never break it never sleep where the sack at

[Verse 1:]
I'm the hustler's constitution
Feds giving back time for retribution you snitching that shit excuses
Pain that's execution and thats my only solution I got from stopping these rat niggas from moving
My life a movie not a short film
Big budget Denzel Washington, Will Smith yeah
Scarface, Al Pacino, Godfather, Marlon Brando
A word to the wise watch your guys niggas snakes in disguise
Meeting bitches off the gram know they living and lying
Cold heart never cried if I did it was blood
Little nigga big pride murder that's what it was and that's law

[Gotti talking]
See if a nigga
See when you got that muthaf*ckin chip on your shoulder and that big ass pistol and a nigga come playing
You gotta show a nigga you mean business you know what I'm saying

[Verse 2:]
I'm fighting pain, fame, I never want to change
I'm the same still running with the gang
Still down to kill a nigga about some petty [?]
You a million dollar nigga got to get that in your brain
Now get that in your brain it's all about the [?]
We savages we all live the same
And it's the art of war nigga like the art of hustle nigga
They looking for the goonies but Im the muscle nigga
Ima shooter like Durant
I got heart like Russell nigga
I lost a million to the plug I never trust another nigga
What if I sell a million records will that change the code
Will my niggas try to betray me cause I know they vultures
Will LA Reid see my vision [?]
Create me a better way to put my people on
Will my baby mama finally quit texting my phone
Kiss my daughter and my son tell em I'm coming home
Tell my niggas put the pistols down I'm in the zone
I been dropping nothing but gangsta shit on every song
This that shit they been waiting for forever long
They gave my patna 30 years for talking on the phone
I had to watch his mama cry and tell her let's be strong
Ima hold him down he won't do all that time alone
What if I wasn't a rapper the streets would get annoyed
Cause don't nobody tell it how I tell it and you know it
What if they say I changed cause I went outside the box
What's good I kept my plug number so I can get some blocks
18 wheeler full of cocaine I'm talking lots of dope
Not believing Mexican plugs f*ck a horoscope
If you a star where your telescope
These niggas high they on hella dope
Your favorite rapper hella broke
Cars leases they got hella notes
Houses rented got eviction notes and everybody already know
You fabricated and [?]
You sold a million records I got millions of dollars
Who really made it huh

And nigga put a frown on your face some shit you just can't hide
Let me put my hand on your waist pull your hair and hit it from behind
I bet that put a smile on your face bet that put a smile on your face
Heard you got a job that you hate heard you got some bills that's late
Heard you got a nigga you can't shake heard you got a friend that's fake
Girl you need a thug in your life girl I need a plug in my life
I never had love in my life I was busy selling drugs all my life

[Chorus:]
Put a smile on your face hater
Put a smile on your face hater
What you mad at me for dab to the paper

Pay The Price

[Verse 1:]
Yeah
Bills due on the kitchen table
Mama walked past em cause she ain't able
Watching mama's family sister tryna watch cartoons muthaf*cka came through and clipped the cable
Get a job that's the usual
Mama had a job that ain't do enough
Mama hired me I'm sacking groceries up
90 days later I was posting up
Quarter pound of weed 250 strong
Staying out late bringing profit home
It's me and Big G tryna stack it up
Shit ain't been the same since my nigga gone
I looked up to niggas like Hookshot
Niggas like Lil Pat and Woo Woo
I was on the block as a young boy
Watching them hustle it was like school

[Chorus:]
I hustled with the greats, ate with the vultures and the snakes
My days turned to nights my nights turned to days
Streets got me paid
And I know Ima pay the price for it
I know it
One day Ima pay the price for it
I know it
I know it
I know it

[Verse 2:]
First time I seen 10 bands
First time I seen 100 grand
First time I seen 1 mill
I knew shit was about to get real
Homeboys start acting different
Shit changed I ain't even tripping
Same nigga used to ride for em one time I was on the front line for em
I was a hitta for a dopeboy
Play crazy yeah you know boy
Im in the hood with the doors up
Nigga I ain't never froze up
Bad bitches chose up
They like me or the lifestyle
Nigga I don't really give a f*ck
But Ima burn the head in a meanwhile

[Chorus:]
I hustled with the greats, ate with the vultures and the snakes
My days turned to nights my nights turned to days
Streets got me paid
And I know Ima pay the price for it
I know it
One day Ima pay the price for it
I know it
I know it
I know it

[Verse 3:]
Shit different you ain't even notice it
All the hustlers I ain't even quote it
New Wraith I ain't even rode it
Nick got a strap he ain't even load it
Shit real growing up in the projects
Tryna stay real in the process
Seen a pump knock out a nigga intestines
Young boy standing there tryna digest it
Where all the real niggas at that's my question
Never got indicted that's my blessing
When I put it on the Gram that's the motivate you
Inspiration nigga that's not flexing
New Lambs, new Raris
Little homie fighting charges
Make bond get em lawyers
Green dot so they can call you

[Chorus:]
I hustled with the greats, ate with the vultures and the snakes
My days turned to nights my nights turned to days
Streets got me paid
And I know Ima pay the price for it
I know it
One day Ima pay the price for it
I know it
I know it
I know it

Momma

Momma, I don't never want to see you struggle
Tired of seeing me bump heads with my big brother
Momma, that's big bruh, you ain't got to worry
We'll die together, kill together, face a buck and jury
Momma, I'm like a father to my little sister
Gotta make sure she do right, momma, she my baby sister
Momma, I'm just living how you taught a nigga
Said I ain't raising no pussies, I got one daughter, nigga
I remember them Feds came and got a nigga
Asked me where you at and I wouldn't talk to niggas
Momma, living room floor with tears in my eyes hearing them say you gon' be gone for a long time, Momma

Shout out my Auntie Janet she a motherf*cker
PeeWee did 10 back out and she still hustling
Erica used to write you letters tell you that she love you
Then we used to drive to visit you up in Kentucky
Like we went from being rich that shit was super ugly
Then my Momma got a job man she selling groceries
Used to have a house in Vegas when we was doing good
And a house behind Elvis now we in the hood
Used to have a Benz now we got a Nissan Sentra
And I can't get a pair of Jordans that's f*cking with my mental
I'm just tryna let you visualize what I done been through
And this shit public record nigga you check my credentials
Facts

I switched the family hustle put us back on top
Momma live on 5 acres brother in that drop
Sister she an entrepreneur get her own M's
Feds still watch the family but we don't even see em
I ain't tripping nigga this the art of hustle home
I went from flipping dope to buying houses flipping homes
Momma taught me f*ck your losses just keep moving on
If you get caught just never snitch one day you coming home
Momma, gave me the game and for Mother's Day I spent a million and a half for you on Privé
And you the owner I'm a worker this shit yours do what you want to you deserve it
Momma

I grew up around hustlers that turned me to a hustler
Was raised by a woman I watched my Momma hustle
I just want to be a kingpin
Teacher asked me what's my Momma she a queenpin
And this my family tradition
I'm just keeping on my family tradition
We built a legacy
And when I grow up I want to be a kingpin
Teacher asked me what's my Momma she a queenpin

Cleanin' out them keys got me an Aventador
Playin' with the keys like a piano
Shout out to my thick bitch in Atlanta
She a boss bitch, yeah she a boss bitch
I be downing pounds like I'm on Crossfit
Medusa heads, they're Versace
I'm rich from sellin' dope so I cannot be illuminati
My nigga 18 and he just caught him a body
First I made his bond then I bought him a Maserati
Congrats

[Hook - Yo Gotti:]
I'm a general, little nigga I'm a general

Got them mollys and them xans, that's a two piece
I got my main bitch ridin' like a Goonie
I got that duffle bag on me and it's Louie
I'm bout to do the whole dash out here grindin', grindin'
I got three mil all in jewelry, go ask Avianne
Ain't no brag in bossin', I caught the wave on 'em
You don't want no problems, we gon' lay on you
Step in the kitchen, it's woo
Strap with that carbon, it's woo
Sippin' that lean like Goose, I'm full of them drugs
I get dirty-dirty money, it's covered in blood
If you can't f*ck no pop star you a scrub
Freebandz

[Hook - Yo Gotti:]
I'm a general, little nigga I'm a general

Bank Teller

Whole bunch of money on my mind I'm a bank teller
Pharmaceuticals in the trap nigga I'm a dope seller
Margiela thousand dollars for the tennis shoes
Make the money, blow the money, blow the money, make the money

Whole bunch of money on my mind I'm a bank teller
Pharmaceuticals in the trap nigga I'm a dope seller
Margiela thousand dollars for the tennis shoes
Make the money, blow the money, blow the money, make the money

I just blew a sack in Saks
Closet looking like it's Neimans
Smoking on that woo, sipping Act got me feeling like a demon
Got me feeling like a monster plus I'm bumping Monster by my nigga Future
Met a bitch so real told her I'm marry her I can tell the future
Yea bitch I'm a prophet
Wake up everyday and profit
Wake up everyday with new haters, knowing niggas can't stop me
You a hater boy I want to thank you
Motivate me get this paper
Motivate me f*ck your bitches, thank me later
Million dollars and I threw it
Half a million on a coupe
2 million dollar budget but I said f*ck it slingin' out the stu'
I been trapping out the booth
Coke prices through the roof
Yea the prices prices hella high high 'cause it's desert storm DJ Clue

Whole bunch of money on my mind I'm a bank teller
Pharmaceuticals in the trap nigga I'm a dope seller
Margiela thousand dollars for the tennis shoes
Make the money, blow the money, blow the money, make the money

Whole bunch of money on my mind I'm a bank teller
Pharmaceuticals in the trap nigga I'm a dope seller
Margiela thousand dollars for the tennis shoes
Make the money, blow the money, blow the money, make the money

In the hood giving loans
Investment property buying homes
Invest in pack that strong
F*ck a CP I trust no man
Uncle Sam I be taxing niggas then withdraw it like a ATM
Hood rich off of trap music but I'm popping pills bumping EDM
I just been moving the bank, then put a bill in the vault
Had to withdrew 'bout a bag, money been all in my thoughts
Tell the security we good
Boy we come straight out the hood
We don't trust niggas with badges, only f*ck bitches with asses
Nigga late on a payment make him pay interest
Nigga late on the payment take 'em to the trenches
I can count the money backwards
Yeah I rap but I'm not a rapper
Life a movie but I'm not acting ain't no cut scenes straight action

Whole bunch of money on my mind I'm a bank teller
Pharmaceuticals in the trap nigga I'm a dope seller
Margiela thousand dollars for the tennis shoes
Make the money, blow the money, blow the money, make the money

Whole bunch of money on my mind I'm a bank teller
Pharmaceuticals in the trap nigga I'm a dope seller
Margiela thousand dollars for the tennis shoes
Make the money, blow the money, blow the money, make the money

Hunnid

[Intro - Yo Gotti:]
Ayy Gotti, what you gon' do homie
You gon' swap it up, slang it out?
You gon' keep it street?
What you gon' do, nigga?
Nigga I'ma re-up, f*ck you mean, nigga?
Tell Enrique send my shit to Mexico
I don't even wanna see it

[Hook - Yo Gotti:]
I don't know another nigga that had done it
Can't remember last time I got fronted
And the watch that I'm rockin' is a hunnid
Man the streets everyday, I'm a hunnid
If you really want beef, we can run it
Pull up on the squad, we dumpin'
Ran off on the plug with a hunnid
Got the mothaf*ckin' trap house jumpin'

[Verse 1 - Yo Gotti:]
Boy I'm really in the trap, my way strapped
Truth be told, I don't really like to rap
I got quarter halves a slab, pill percs and tabs
Really got a pound runnin' laps
Bitch I'm in the hood, really, really, really in the hood
Niggas like, "Gotti, what's good?"
The coupe two hunnid, nigga I be f*ckin' up the money
And the drum really hold like a hunnid
I don't know another nigga that done it
Can't remember last time I got fronted
Yeah I remember last time I got fronted
I was like, "F*ck the plug," I ain't bring back the money
I ain't savin' no hoes, it ain't Sunday
Know the alphabet boys, they comin'
I blew a 10 at the mall and a 10 at Kamal's
And a 20 at Magic last Monday
Every weekend I'ma sell a hunnid
Plant a money tree and I'ma be up under it
3 mil' for the condo, new marble floors
And the mothaf*cka ran like a hunnid

[Hook - Yo Gotti:]
I don't know another nigga that had done it
Can't remember last time I got fronted
And the watch that I'm rockin' is a hunnid
Man the streets everyday, I'm a hunnid
If you really want beef, we can run it
Pull up on the squad, we dumpin'
Ran off on the plug with a hunnid
Got the mothaf*ckin' trap house jumpin'

[Verse 2 - Pusha T:]
Aye Gotti, while we're talkin' 'bout a hunnid
We're some niggas who ain't done it
That's 45 keys on a calibrated scale, bitch countin' on her stomach
If you checkin' the math, countin' on your fingers to add
We don't count extras when it's like Tetris
Yuugh, let me dummy down my lecture
Digest, these watches got sister, cousins
My Rollies got missin' numbers
These bezels is blindin'
The 3 and the 9 is like distant lovers
Now guess what I fronted, nigga (take a guess)
Keeps at 300, nigga (double that)
I say about 5, I kept it alive whenever you want it, nigga
Maseratis for the monkeys (f*ck them niggas)
Any dodge for a flunkie
Only one above me is the God in the sky
I'm a man without a country

[Hook - Yo Gotti:]
I don't know another nigga that had done it
Can't remember last time I got fronted
And the watch that I'm rockin' is a hunnid
Man the streets everyday, I'm a hunnid
If you really want beef, we can run it
Pull up on the squad, we dumpin'
Ran off on the plug with a hunnid
Got the mothaf*ckin' trap house jumpin'

[Verse 3 - Yo Gotti:]
I got a hunnid guns, hunnid clips
Swear to God I took a hunnid trips
Million dollars, that's a hunnid flips
[?] at a hunnid rip
A hunnid grams on the kitchen table
Tryna hide a hunnid pounds from my nosy neighbors
I got a hunnid problems but it ain't no hoes
I got a hunnid robbers tryna take my soul
I know a hunnid ways to make a hunnid thou
We done skipped public housing
[?]
Gotta thank God I made today
I never joined no gang, I always got my money
I never crossed my partners, cause it ain't one hunnid
I sold dope on Saturday then went to church on Sunday
Call my plug and re-upped on Monday

[Hook - Yo Gotti:]
I don't know another nigga that had done it
Can't remember last time I got fronted
And the watch that I'm rockin' is a hunnid
Man the streets everyday, I'm a hunnid
If you really want beef, we can run it
Pull up on the squad, we dumpin'
Ran off on the plug with a hunnid
Got the mothaf*ckin' trap house jumpin'

And I love all of my bitches

This shit started in a Chevy
Tryna do it big 'til I'm wealthy
Got a bookbag full of money
In the dealership take a selfie
All I used to want was a Masi
I used to have to pray for a thousand
Just bought a foreclosed house
Just to use the bitch for a closet
Love all them hoes then I move on
See my old neighborhood when the news on
Leave the club and head straight to the f*cking crib
Just to f*ck her on the futon

Oh, I love deez hoes

She kinda insecure so she hold me tight
Attitude and one I kinda like
She be talking shit, like to fight
Last nigga ain't treat her right
So the last nigga ain't in her life
She listen to me so I give advice
I said, "you look good, that don't make you bad"
What's your credit score?
Who you f*cked in the past?
What your future is?
What your plans are?
And most important now what you stand for?
A real nigga what you need to be planning for
You gettin' money, what you need a man for?
These lame ass niggas understand bruh
That ain't yo bitch if you paying her
A real nigga what you need to be planning for
You gettin' money, what you need a man for?
These lame ass niggas understand bruh
That ain't yo bitch if you paying her

Oh, I love deez hoes

Oh, I love deez hoes
