Lyrics
Uh, it's no lectures when they firin'
Either you under pressure or you applyin' it
Weighin' coke by the measures or you supplyin' it
No matter how much the cheddar, ain't no retirement
Play by the oath, then put a quarter in
Before you see the growth, you gotta water it
Gucci fur coats, tryin' to keep my daughter in
I'm Rich Porter and Mr. Porter reportin' this
Uh, enough raw to make the dog sick
Fuck a U-Haul truck, I need a forklift
Fuck a five star suite, I need a fortress
And if ever I swipe, I use the corporate
Ragu approved, you know where the sauce is
If it ain't A1, I never force it
At any given moment, I turn off the faucet
Have you in a drought, feelin' nauseous
Of course these niggas is gon' hate
Best part of the night is makin' it home safe
Takin' it home safe, kickin' your own safe
Niggas at the table but eatin' the wrong plates
They bringin' the wrong steaks
Uh, I ain't givin' 'em no breaks
They silly, I really be thinkin' they on base
They sealin' they own fate, they really be all fake
Champagne pourin', I'm bringin' my own case
And I probably won't drink
They cut my face so I smile a little different
I'm from the East, my style a little different
9-11, My dial a little different
Behind bars, my child a little different
How this nigga different?
I put the cal a little different sideways
I'm a G, crime pays
Covered in oil, don't call me Goldie
Everybody get a shot like Horry
Don't get your man buried like Doherty
I'm gonna have forty under forty
Big baller, Dwayne Johnson with the powder
Just to make the money rain, we was skippin' showers
I'm too dignified, I'm all about honor
These niggas sell they soul for a dollar
I birth niggas, but I'm a disappointin' father
My sons became prodigals just to make a profit
I'm a East side legend, I don't say much
I don't need to prove shit, I ain't made up
Fresh like a new car smell, check the make up
God forgive 'em, I be talkin' to my maker like
Give me the strength and keep me safe on the streets
'Cause nowadays bein' fake is real
I lost track who is who, sound the same, who is who?
I ain't finish school, got the E-Class baby blue
Like the tar heels, how this nigga cross over?
I was never shy even as a cub, word to Sammy Sosa
I'm the Dominican hope that they was hopin' for
Had Dascha Polanco when she open for
They ain't teach y'all no manners so I had to open doors for
Everybody on the East walk with me, lookin' real chic
Put sand in my backyard, made my own beach
Somewhere you can't reach
Some niggas gon' learn, some niggas gon' teach
Some niggas can't speak, keep your mouth closed
Some niggas got a name but they ain't earn it
I ain't crossin' the bridge unless it's burnin'
I don't give a fuck, I did it my way different
I'm from Harlem, talented and gifted
Papi
