Time to get paid
Time to get, time-time to get, time to get paid
Time to get..
Now I'm in the limelight cause I rhyme tight
Now I'm in the limelight cause I rhyme tight
Time to get paid
Time to get, time to get, time to get, time to get paid
Now I'm in the limelight cause I rhyme tight
Now I'm in the limelight cause I rhyme tight
Time to get paid
Time to get, time to get, time to get, time to get paid
[DMX]
Money, money, money
Bitches, bitches, bitches
All these f-cking killers but a jail full of snitches
A dollar aint got a f-cking thing to do with riches
Say cheese, now I got pictures of what a bitch is
Got a crew of guerillas, start chickens like roaches?
Put n-ggas lights out, buenos nochas
You can go to the left, but don't lose the focus
Whatever the f-ck you do, don't lose the focus
Ain't nothing changed, n-gga throw them R's up
Come through on a higher boost, light them cars up
Vato's Locos, man we are nuts
You know that's us when we tear shit up
We get's it in, no muthaf-cking doubt
Aint got to pop a n-gga, I punch him in his mouth
Got ya soft like funeral music, cut it out
For real, f-ck is all the noise about
[Biggie: Juicy Sample]
[DMX - Verse 2]
When you walk like a duck, I'ma treat it like a duck
If it look like p-ssy than it's gon get f-cked
See, we get down for real, blam n-ggas from the truck
And we can keep talking slick but you dont get stuck
Cats making funny moves and I don't know what you up too
But keep talking slick and you gon make me say f-ck you
I'm a grown ass n-gga, walk alone ass n-gga
Bring it to you, aint no beefing on the phone ass n-gga
Nowadays there's so much (?)
I wouldn't be surprised if there was (?)
They don't make 'em like they used to
But y'all better get used to a n-gga keeping it real
Just because he choose to
They know I'm in some pain because I go against the grain
Go against the game and show a n-gga that a
Throw a n-gga the (?)
Keep n-gga talking, Double R for life, we deep n-gga, what!
[Biggie: Juicy Sample]
[Outro - DMX]
All my life, I've been struggling
I've been struggling, but I will be alright
All my life, I've been struggling
I've been struggling, but I will be alright
Grrrrr, this is the clean version hence all the question marks.
As soon as Swizzy drops the dirty I will fill in the gaps.
Time To Get Paid
Time To Get Paid captures the raw, aggressive energy that defined DMX's early career. Emerging from the hip-hop landscape of the late 1990s, the track showcases the rapper's signature blend of gritty street narratives and intense vocal delivery. Known for his dynamic range, DMX often oscillated between moments of vulnerability and explosive power, a duality that resonated deeply with listeners during this era. This recording stands as a testament to his ability to command attention through sheer force of personality and rhythmic precision. While the song reflects the broader themes of struggle and triumph prevalent in his discography, it remains a distinct song in his catalog, highlighting the artist's capacity to deliver compelling performances that transcend specific album placements.
