Weezy (what up, pop? What up, pop?)
F*ck what they heard, it's what they need to know, nigga
(They saying C-A-R-T-E-R, yep)
Ya feel me, hey nigga, we done built this
Shit from the ground up now, homie
Believe that daddy, it ain't no looking back from here, we too strong

And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
'Cause that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
And everything we got, we bought (we bought)
And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, yeah)
And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
And that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
And everything we got, we bought (we bought)
And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, f*ck a law, oh)
'Cause that's the only way we get down

I down-down a brother 
We ain't cut from the same cloth, you Downy soft
Bullets separate your body, compound a buster
I'ma find you if you're hiding, I'm a bounty hunter
In your home, putting dick all down your woman
You come home, we in the bedroom countin' money
I bring her home and I f*ck her on a thousand hundreds
Then I shoot the nasty bitch in the mouth for nothing
I say, "Birdman, Birdman what's good today?"
We ain't never let them niggas take our food away
And we recognize real and got a rude awakening
And woke up together and our life was better
I'm the Cash Money son, I live a life of cheddar
Not a rat though, hat low, Nikes is leather
Lil' ma twist two, get my life together
Your bitch meet me at the bar and we knife together, cut

And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
'Cause that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
And everything we got, we bought (we bought)
And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, yeah)
And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
And that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
And everything we got, we bought (we bought)
And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, f*ck a law, oh)
'Cause that's the only way we get down

Throw my weight like Sherman Klump
I gotta hold up my estate like Donald Trump
And I aim kinda straight when it's time to pump
I bring the pump when it's time to pump
Wrapped around my waist like a cumber bun
Don't make a nigga pump, you up
I come in that new thing, she threw up
Now your bitch ass gotta clean your shoe up
I'm rich as f*ck and I never blew up
Business mug, gotta get my loot up
Bet your bitch get fucked if I ever met her
Bet your ditch get dug if you ever step up
One by one, I push 'em down, fat bullet, fat head make a pussy sound
Hard head, soft ass, make a gushy ground
I'm straight from a crooked town like that, bitch

And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
'Cause that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
And everything we got, we bought (we bought)
And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, yeah)
And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
And that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
And everything we got, we bought (we bought)
And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, f*ck a law, oh)
'Cause that's the only way we get down

I give my arms and my legs to the game I'm ahead of the game
I dead any mane if he said anything 
But it's cool, as long as nigga paid when he came
And I'm a fool with the flame and the 'caine
Cut it just a little bit but a drain stay the same, yeah
Young Wayne and the pain and the stain still remain
On the chest where the four made a mess, yes
I'm still here in the flesh, twenty-one-year-old legend 
I'm a live way after my death
I sacrifice whatever that's left
I give y'all the last of my breath like
Write it down, take a picture, record a copy
Press pause, only way you stop me, fucker
I'ma get mine and make you not me
Spit wine in your face if you watch me, bitch

And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
'Cause that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
And everything we got, we bought (we bought)
And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, yeah)
And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
And that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
And everything we got, we bought (we bought)
And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, f*ck a law, oh)
'Cause that's the only way we get down

And that's the only way we getting down, nigga 
Cash Money, C-M-B, man
You already know, we here, never left, f*ck 'em
See me if you got a problem, boy
I'm at home all day, man, it's not a game
Stunna, what's really good with 'em?
We ain't never let 'em take our food away
(I got it, yeah)
Fresh, you nasty on this one, dawg, ugh
Guess what? This is Tha Carter, biatch
