Paid in Cash - Empire Cast, Yazz

(Yeah

I need all that

Run me my money

Cash, dollars, dinero)

Who do you think?

Yeah, I got the hood on lock (lock)

People whisper my name down on every block

Talk less, I’ll take you out with a unmarked Glock

Make a hit list and put your homie name on top

Yeah, bosses don’t brag, gangsters don’t advertise

What’s your next move when death stares you in the eyes

It’s a stand-off game, yeah, it’s do or die

One day I’ma pay with my life

And like the King, yeah, I had a dream

I had to turn the hustle into something more to me

Remember the days of no money and no clout

But money don’t sleep so I slept at the trap house

Got tired of running outta luck tryna make a buck

Just to end up in county till my time’s up

Counting dollars, yeah, now I’m big balling on pay

But I’m still the same hitter from the old day

Yeah, I’m rich, but I’m still a gangster

Run me my money, hand over the paper

Yeah, I’m rich, but I’m still a gangster

Run me my money, hand over the paper

Make sure you pay me in cash, yeah, ooh, yeah

Make sure you pay me in cash, yeah, ooh, yeah

Big black trucks doing stick-up, stick-ups

But I’ll take a life before you light me up, me up

Just another drive-by, making rounds fly

Happened every day just like the sunrise

Yeah, made it out the hood, I survived

Momma prayed to God, thanks for keeping me alive

Gotta show my son a man that he can respect, yeah

You can run me my check, yeah

Yeah, I’m rich, but I’m still a gangster

Run me my money, hand over the paper

Yeah, I’m rich, but I’m still a gangster

Run me my money, hand over the paper

Make sure you pay me in cash, yeah, ooh, yeah

Make sure you pay me in cash, yeah, ooh, yeah

Make sure you pay me in cash, yeah, ooh, yeah

Make sure you pay me in cash, yeah, ooh, yeah
