Ninety-six thousand
- Damn - Damn
Ninety-six thousand
Dollars? Holla!
Ninety-six thousand
That's a lot of spray cans
Ninety-six thousand
Yo, if I won the Lotto tomorrow
Well, I know I wouldn't bother Goin' on no spendin' spree
I pick a business school And pay the entrance fee
And maybe if you're lucky You'll stay friends with me
I'll be a businessman Richer than Nina's daddy
Tiger Woods and I on the links And he's my caddy
My money's makin' money I'm goin' from po' to mo' dough
Keep the bling I want the brass ring, like Frodo
Oh, no, here goes Mr. Braggadocio
Next thing you know You lying like Pinocchio
If you're scared of the bull Stay out the rodeo
Yo, I got more flows than Obi-Wan Kenobi, oh
Oh, you better stop rappin' You not ready
It's gonna get hot and heavy And you already sweaty
- Yo-yo-yo! - Yo, yo!
I'm sorry was that an answer?
Shut up, go home And pull your damn pants up
- As for you, Mr. Frodo of the Shire
- What?
96 G's ain't enough To retire... C'mon!
I'll have enough To knock your ass off its axis
You'll have a knapsack Full of jack after taxes
- Ninety-six thousand - Ay, alabanza!
- Ninety-six thousand - No me diga!
- Ninety-six thousand
- I never win shit.
Ninety-six thousand!
For real, though
Imagine how it would feel Goin' real slow
Down the highway of life With no regrets
And no breakin' your neck For respect or a paycheck
For real, though
I'll take a break from the wheel And we'll throw
The biggest block party Everybody here
A weekend when we can breathe Take it easy
Yo! Ma, it's me, check my ticket
Check one, two, three
What would you do
- With ninety-six G's?
- Who, me?
I mean, if it's just Between you and me
Esa pregunta es tricky
I know
With 96 G's
I'd start my life With a brand new lease
Atlantic City with a Malibu Breeze
And a brand new weave
Ay, maybe just bleach.
Y'all are freaks.
- Yo, I'm just sayin'
- Look at her.
It's silly when we get Into these crazy hypotheticals
You really want some bread? Then go ahead, create a set of goals
And cross them off the list As you pursue 'em
And with those 96 I know precisely what I'm doing
- What you doing?
- What am I doing? What am I doing?
It takes half of that cash
Just to save my ass From financial ruin
Sonny can keep the coffee brewin'
I'll spend a few on you
'Coz the only room with a view Is a room with you in it
And I could give Abuela Claudia The rest of it
Just fly me down to Puerto Plata I'll make the best of it
- You really love this business?
- No.
Tough, Merry Christmas
You're now the youngest tycoon In Washington Hiznits
Yo, with 96,000 I'd finally fix housing
Give the barrio computers And wireless web browsing
Your kids are living Without a good edumacation
Change the station Teach 'em about gentrification
- The rent is escalatin' - What?
- The rich are penetratin' - What?
We pay our corporations When we should be demonstratin'
- What? - What about immigration?
- What? - Politicians be hatin'
- What? - Racism in this nation's
Gone from latent to blatant
I'll cash my ticket and picket Invest in protest
Never lose my focus 'Til the city takes notice
And you know this, man! I'll never sleep
Because the ghetto Has a million promises
For me to keep
You are so cute.
I was just thinking off the top of my head.
Ninety-six K... Go.
If I win the lottery
You'll never see me again
Damn, we only jokin'.
Stay broke, then.
I'll be downtown
Get a nice studio
Get out of the barrio
For real, though
- Imagine how it would feel - If I win the lottery
Goin' real slow Down the highway of life
With no regrets
- And no breakin' your neck - You'll wonder where I've been
For respect or a paycheck
- Ninety-six thousand - It's silly when we get
Into these crazy hypotheticals
- I'll take a break from the wheel - Ninety-six thousand
And we'll throw The biggest block party
- Everybody here - Ninety-six thousand!
- I'll see you around - And with those 96
I know precisely what I'm doing
- Check one, two, three - And with the dolla, dolla
- Ninety-six G's - We get to holla, holla
- Between you and me - We rock the hot Impala
And no breakin' Your neck for respect...
Why-oh!
- Ninety-six G's - I'll be downtown
- A brand new lease - We rock beyond maΓ±ana
- A Malibu Breeze - See you around!
A weekend when we can breathe Take it easy
Around
- Whoa-oh-oh! - Whoa!
- Whoa-oh-oh! - Yeah
- Whoa-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh! - I'll be downtown
- Whoa-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh! - We could pay off the debts we owe
- We could tell everyone we know - Whoa-oh-oh!
I could get on a plane and go
We be swimmin' in dough, yo
No tip-toeing we'll get the dough
And once we get going
We're never gonna stop tip-toeing
We're never gonna stop tip-toeing
We'll get the dough And once we get going
We're never gonna
- Ninety-six thousand - No tip-toeing
- Ninety-six thousand - We'll get the dough
Ninety-six thousand
- Once we get going
- We got the numbers, let's go!
Ninety-six thousand
- Five! - Ninety-six thousand
- Seven!Β - Ninety-six thousand
- Sixteen! - Ninety-six thousand
- Twenty-six! - Ninety-six thousand
- Ninety-six thousand - We'll get the dough
And once we get goin' We're never gonna
- Stop!
