Chamillionaire - Elevate Lyrics
(Verse 1)Well it’s beginning to look alotLike y’all follow my every stepTake no tone how I rapWhat else would you expectThey say that money talks in these streetsIf money talks then who say the most and who say the leastThat’s it if you can and if you can’t chokeIronically the ones who can’t the ones who came closeThey tell me this how the city really supposed to feelTattoo my name on your checkbook that will let me know it’s realListen, hatin is a decisionI normally stay in the cup but some people hate the incisionTell you about the suspicion, I ain’t gettin commissionAnd tell you how well and different they do in my positionAbort the missionThey say they could, they would, they should’ve did thatIf it’s 15 minutes of fame, where your minutes at?What have you ever done? what have you ever did?It’s rhetorical , don’t answer that ’cause you know what it is(Hook)When you moving on up everybody wanna rollThey say they love me but I can never be sureSo you know, you know ,I elevate on these hoesElevate on these hoesThey be talking about me everywhere they goBut they don’t say when they see me in the streets thoughSo you know, you know ,I elevate on these hoesElevate on these hoes(Verse 2)Tell you fade I say you can’t winWhat’s good a hussle when your mentality caged inI pull up on the parking right up in the pavementStep out and look and be stuck in my own amazementAnd that feeling still ain’t for feelingMillions on top of millions, you gon become the villainYou see this one room apartment when we was livingThis is why I’m claustrophobic and ride away at the ceilingGuess who calling my number, sitting in her pajamasFeeling like it’s Obama that I ain’t given her numberTapping that like a drummer, turning that into a commaAnd staying somewhere in the winter but feeling like it’s the summerHold up, the garage is big as the courtHow you learn how to ball and not even get into sportDecorated the grill made it look like an SPBut you can’t see the front when you’re in the rear trying to catch me(Hook)When you moving on up everybody wanna rollThey say they love me but I can never be sureSo you know, you know ,I elevate on these hoesElevate on these hoesThey be talking about me everywhere they goBut they don’t say when they see me in the streets thoughSo you know, you know ,I elevate on these hoesElevate on these hoes(Verse 3)See I came up on that ScarfaceAnd I came up on that CassThat Pimpsy and that Bun B the professors of my classWhen I made your deal head came through who came up on the lastSame person that had taught you how to come up on that cashThey say that flattery’s what you get from an imitatorGet birth to all my haters I shouldn’t have paid for your laborWhen you turn to the savior and never ask for a favorWatch people that never gave you a favor act like they made youBut I gotta get mine, even get on the rotationGots to stray thrill never been an imitationNever stop lying ’cause there come the complicationsBroke the boys off ,call it weak intimidationLook in my eyes trying to tell you what you facingOut then outside it’s a legend in the makingWatch where I slide in the elevated doorElevate on these hoesElevate on these hoes
