[Intro]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


[Verse 1]

It's all about that cash money that I'm makin' (That's right)

And crooked-ass cop tryin' to shake in take it

They can never understand how a woman

Could be a hustlers without gettin' laid, I make my money game

I don't promote a violent attitude, but my mind snaps

To cause psychological flashbacks

So listen up y'all, this shit can get a bit explicit

Come closer so you don't miss it

As a girl was taught to respect those who respect me

But now that I've grown up, that seems have changed

Nobody including the cops really gives a fuck about 'cha

Life is go on fine with or without 'cha

That's why you need to learn the tricks of the trade

Keep ya' Glock cocked so you can get paid

And catch a popo slippin'

While he tryin' to jack a nigga for his riches, yeah


[Chorus]

True devotion, that's what it is to the hustlas and the playas (Yeah, that's right)

Got a notion, I got a notion to smoke the playa haters


[Verse 2]

They try to murda, murda or get the young nigga for his chedda

Better respect it, 'cause if you won't, that's when they get 'cha

Expect it, 'cause if you don't, that's when they hit 'cha with a bomb rush

Shake down beat down countin'

Yo, ends as they roll through town

I'ma flip 'em, if I catch a sucka strippin'

Extra clip on my hip I don't slip

We can go toe to toe so that cha know

Like Roy Jones it'll be another KO

First round knocked out drag out

Like heavyweight championship 'bout

I surrounded be demons that wanna try me

It seems like time is steadily passin' by me

In a rubble of greed I'm steady strivin'

I just keep on keep on survivin' (Yeah)


[Chorus]

True devotion, that's what it is to the hustlas and the playas (Yeah, that's right)

Got a notion, I got a notion to smoke the playa haters


[Verse 3]

Well if you ask me no question I can tell you no lies

Nothin comes easy in life it's all about paaradise

I'm not the who's to blame for the fame I can't be tamed

I'm not takin' no shorts I kick ass and take names

They wanna hold me back, but I'ma make my stack

I'm livin' phat and you can best believe that

It's gettin' hectic but check it I'm not a busta

I gotta show my devotion to all the hustlas (Yeah)


[Chorus]

True devotion, that's what it is to the hustlas and the playas (Yeah, that's right)

Got a notion, I got a notion to smoke the playa haters
