Projects

Rise and shine boy, wake up
It's C-Murder, TRU Records, Boss of All Bosses, Bossalini
In the studio, D-Lo, Wango, Lu-9
TRU Records, respect us, no Nina
Another hit, ya heard me, for the projects
All my dogs out there in the cut, the PJ's
We call them cut boys, from the projects
Eyes, spitting that O.G. gangsta shit
You know what I'm sayin', check it out

That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high

Born and raised in the PJ's
Man I remember them olden days
Y'all remember those DJ's
Block parties and the coat ways
Kids running wild outside
Was calling baby child welfare recipient
I still think they magnificent
Hell full of lint
Fifty-five dollars every month for the rent
Ain't never seen a hundred dollar bill
Seen they daddy get killed
Mama smoking that little white pill
How you feel, the jets is real
But hold up, let me tell you something else
It ain't they fault, just ain't no help
Mama, wanna be by herself
I thank grandma for being there
One pair of underwear, one pair of pants
One pair of shoes, I'm catching blues
But don't snooze in the PJ's
Let 'em hang high, a dead man's shoes
A tisket, a tasket
Back here you would get your ass kicked
My big butt up, toting automatic
Cause life back here is drastic

That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high

At night time, mama bring it out
That's when you threw the hundred and thirty next out
Make a nigga tell me don't burn 'em out
My mom can't make it, about to put her out the house
Something go wrong, people scream
They done killed my child, it was a dramatic scene
Police come, they want to point towards me
One, two, three, to see P-3
Big right, jump jump, hit the set
I'mma holler at ya later, nigga know I'm 'bout to jet
It's all good, but don't you forget
Long as you know where my patient's at
Keep it real, nigga don't expose
I ain't running 'round flashing my tags on my clothes
New millennium, so that's how it go
Rock shit nigga, it's death what you chose
When the raise is up, nigga lock this down
Somebody shooting, get your ass on the ground
Emergency late, when they do come around
Shit get hectic if you do want clout
It's serious, people mad
Everybody asking where my fucking cash
That's where I lay up there and smoke that grass
This how it sound when it's busting your ass

That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high

New millennium, Lu-9 live
Pick a G on your squad to rob
Number lesser cause a nigga shot my dog
In the back behind a broad and he died
Simple, my page be like big fat Joe
I ain't gotta know I'm right back though
Out to get the money, that's a fact ho
When I'm wrong, get your head cracked fo'
It's like, they don't wanna see a thug nigga on his feet
So he hustle from the wake to the 'jects
While you bitches sleep, ya peep, feel me
Cause I come to it I want to, go to it, I want to
Booking out like one two, lethal like kung fu
Just watch what I do, at home don't try to
Fly, never lie, even if I bleed
Gotta get the weed, get the cheese
If I D-I-E, it won't be D-I-E
Cause I'mma direct TRU niggas for eternity
Ain't no stopping me, in the projects nigga eternity
It's the plot we figured, goes around, comes around
Up comes down, you used to be down
Be swinging around, now I don't see you this side of town

That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high
That's all I hear up in the projects
What you want, what you need, what you say huh
I got it, let's get high

Yeah, this a dedication to all the PJ's
The projects across the nation
Across the globe, ya heard me, everywhere
From the original project boy himself
Back in town in the cut, known as the cut boy
Representing the cut boys, ya heard me
Giving it up for all the PJ's
Small PJ dwellers, the older PJ dwellers
The ones that left, the ones that left and came back
The ones that's still left, ya heard me
And the ones that's dead and gone
The PJ's that fell victim to the projects
It's real down there ya dig, it's real in them fields
That's all I hear in the projects
