Lyrics
0:10It's been a long time been a long time comin
0:17Looks like the death of me now
0:21But you know there's no turning back now
0:25This is what makes me - this is what I am
0:28Feel me Let's go
0:30You can hate me now but I won't stop now
0:35Cause I can't stop now you can hate me now
0:40But I won't stop now cause I can't stop now
0:46You can hate me now you can hate me NOWWWW
0:52(do it now do it now)
0:56Don't hate me hate the money I see
0:58Clothes that I buy
0:59Ice that I wear clothes that I try
1:00Close your eyes
1:01Picture me rollin sixes money foldin
1:04B**ches honies that swollen to riches
1:05Nas get in ya
1:06Most critically acclaimed Pulitzer
1:08Prize winner
1:09Best storyteller thug narrator
1:10My style's greater
1:12Model dater big threat to a lot of you haters
1:14Commentators ringside try watchin my paper
1:17Almost a decade quite impressive
1:19Most of the best is in the essence
1:21For this rap sh*t that I stand for
1:22Expandin more to the big screen
1:24Bill Gates dreams
1:25But it seems you'd rather see me
1:27In jail with state greens
1:28Want me off the scene fast
1:29But good things last
1:30Like your favorite MC still
1:32Makin some mean cash
1:33First rapper to bring a platinum plaque
1:35Back to the projects
1:36But you still wanna hate be my guest I suggest
1:39Money is power motherf**ker
1:41I got millions of thugs on salary
1:43(do it now)
1:45You can hate me now but I won't stop now
1:49Cause I can't stop now you can hate me now
1:55But I won't stop now cause I can't stop now
2:00You can hate me now you can hate me NOWWWW
2:07Do it now I told you do it now
2:10Let's go
2:11You wanna hate me then hate me;
2:12What can I do
2:13But keep gettin money
2:14Funny I was just like you
2:16I had to hustle hard never give up
2:18Until I made it
2:18Now y'all sayin that's a clever ni**a
2:20Nuttin to play with
2:21Hate on me I blew but I'm the same ol G
2:23People warn me
2:24When you're on top there's envy
2:26Took my niggas out the hood
2:28But you doubt on us
2:29Sayin we left the hood but
2:30Can't get it out of us
2:31My bad should I step out my shoes
2:34Give 'em to you
2:34Here's my cars and my house
2:35You can live in that too
2:37Criticize when I flow for the streets
2:39Hate my dress code
2:40Gucci this Fendi that
2:41What you expect hoe
2:43Nickname Esco'
2:44Took this game to its threshold
2:46Best flow I bet the whole U S know
2:48Try to make it like you the realest
2:49But who the illest
2:50Think we all know the answer to that
2:52Cause niggas feel this right
2:54You think I'ma come this far
2:56And let you niggas stop me now
2:58I hate you too (Do it now )
2:59You can hate me now but I won't stop now

3:15You can hate me now you can hate me NOWWWW
3:19(Do it now )

3:25It's a thin line between paper and hate
3:27Friends and snakes nine millis and thirty-eights
3:30Hell or the pearly gates; I was destined to come
3:33Predicted blame God he blew breath in my lungs
3:35Second to none wicked turn wives to widows
3:38Shoot through satin pillows the desolate one
3:41Took a little time to claim my spot
3:43Chairman of the board until this game stop
3:45And I side with the Lord
3:46Ride for the cause while drivin niggas shot at my doors
3:49Plottin I'm sure to catch me
3:51With they glocks to my jaws
3:52Tried stickin me up
3:53But I flipped on these ducks (you tried)
3:55Instead of me ambulances were picking them up
3:56(that's what you get)
3:57Niggas fear what they don't understand
3:59Hate what they can't conquer
4:00Guess it's just the fury of man
4:02Became a monster on top of the world never fallin
4:05I'm as real as they come from day one
4:07Forever ballin
4:08C'mon
