[Verse 1: C5]

Had to get my, had to get my, had to get my numbers up

Last time wasn’t enough

So I had to double up

They was never down for me til they seen me coming up

Now they wanna be one of us

Cause I got the city jumping like it's double dutch

Shorty looking like she got a tummy tuck

And a butt shot the way that thang poke out

If you ain’t know you know now

Used to post on the block with the 4 pound

Got a bunch of niggas trying to be my woe now

But that ain’t how it, that ain’t how it go down

Yea I got my name ringing out in So Cal

But you know I got my game from the Oak Town

[Hook: C5 & Yhung T.O.]

Gotta get my cake up, EVERYDAY

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects, EVERYDAY

Now I’m making progress, EVERYDAY

Gotta get my cake up

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects

You know we with that non sense, EVERYDAY

Gotta get my cake up

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects

You know we with that non sense, EVERYDAY

[Verse 2: Yhung T.O.]

Young nigga had to get my cake up

I know these niggas fake like makeup

We never break up always make up 

I don’t got much time for you to take up 

But I always let you have it

I grew up a bastard

Young rich nigga I’ma savage

I let a nigga have it

Let me hit a nigga block it get tragic

I still make that money backflip 

I still tuck hundreds in the mattress

Still got twenty in a shoe box

Told baby if shit go wrong go and grab it

[Hook: C5 & Yhung T.O.]

Gotta get my cake up, EVERYDAY

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects, EVERYDAY

Now I’m making progress, EVERYDAY

Gotta get my cake up

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects

You know we with that non sense, EVERYDAY

Gotta get my cake up

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects

You know we with that non sense, EVERYDAY

[Verse 3: C5]

Used to hang in the projects had a thang for them choppas

But thanks to my momma I graduated from college

Now I’m making a profit I’m motivating my patnas

I escaped from the bottom and I ain’t going back there

Why you talking like you bout it when you know you a square

You can't join the circle, I know you will tell

Hard body off and on the field

Niggas that never met me even know I’m real

And everyday I hit my shorty like I’m on a pill

Knock it out Holyfield

I ain’t cocky I’m real

They ask a nigga everyday why I ain’t got me a deal

Cause I ain’t signing nothing less than a mil

Straight up

[Hook: C5 & Yhung T.O.]

Gotta get my cake up, EVERYDAY

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects, EVERYDAY

Now I’m making progress, EVERYDAY

Gotta get my cake up

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects

You know we with that non sense, EVERYDAY

Gotta get my cake up

Thank God when I wake up, EVERYDAY

Used to hang in the projects

You know we with that non sense, EVERYDAY
