Paperchasin Lyrics

You know, you gotta get this money

You know it can't be handed to you

I did come here for the 808

You can get it all

You can stunt and ball

And that's for real, bruh

Uh-uh

Stay on your grind

In due time

Yeah, that's for real

I'm on a money-making mission, man, I gots to get paid

Been had that thought when I was little with the fade

In these city streets, you know you gotta have it made

I was hustlin' to get out the Mo or the Brae

It was me and my niggas tryna get a way out

Gotta pay all these bills but our pockets in the drought

Back then, I really didn't know what grindin' was about

All I know is that my mama wanted me to get out

Now I'm gone, on a paper chase

Treat it like a marathon, not a fuckin' race

Culinary, art school, gettin' to this cake

Nobody ain't savin' me, so why should I wait

The game is designed just to make a nigga break

So I'ma move smarter just to show that I'm great

People gonna be them, real or even fake

So a nigga ain't blind, y'all get out my way

I'm on a paper chase, so get out the way

On the damn grind, goin' gettin' every day

I'm on a paper chase, get out the way

Gonna turn up, get lit, and parlay

I'm on a paper chase, so get out the way

Can't play with time, so why should I play

I'm on a paper chase, so get out the way

Can't wait tomorrow, so I get in today

Inflation on the rise, time to get on the grind

It might seem unfair, but I gotta get mine

Oh, look at the time, it's time to get the bag

Runnin' to the money, you just sittin' lookin' bad

I can't do that, gotta be in the position

To be in the house, livin' good with my children

It might seem lame, but look, you gotta listen

Havin' all your own ain't no better feelin

You gotta be a boss, but sometimes it pays the cost

Gotta make a sacrifice that'll pay off

Want to be in a Maybach like Rick Ross

But you gotta take the pain when you gotta take a loss

Mind of a genius, heart of a lion

To be on that next level, gotta keep applyin

I see you doin' your thing, I see that you tryin

Just keep on movin', don't stop all that grindin

I'm on a paper chase, so get out the way

On the damn grind, goin' gettin' every day

I'm on a paper chase, get out the way

Gonna turn up, get lit and parlay

I'm on a paper chase, so get out the way

Can't play with time, so why should I play

I'm on a paper chase, get out the way

Can't wait tomorrow, so I get in today
