We Don't Care

Lyrics

Oh, yeah, I got the perfect song for the kids to sing
 And all my people that's drug dealing just to get by
 Stack your money 'til it gets sky high
 ♪
 We wasn't s'posed to make it past 25
 Joke's on you we still alive
 Throw your hands up in the sky and say
 "We don't care what people say" (yeah, yeah, yeah, uh)
 If this is your first time hearin' this
 You are about to experience somethin' so cold, man
 We never had nothing handed, took nothing for granted
 Took nothin' from no man, man, I'm my own man
 But as a shorty I looked up to the dope man
 Only adult man I knew that wasn't broke, man
 Flickin' Starter coats man, man, you don't know, man
 We don't care what people say
 This is for my niggas outside all winter
 'Cause this summer they ain't finna say, "Next summer I'm finna..."
 Sittin' in the hood like community colleges
 This dope money here is Lil Tre's scholarship
 'Cause ain't no tuition for havin' no ambition
 And ain't no loans for sittin' yo' ass at home
 So we forced to sell crack rap and get a job
 You gotta do somethin', man, yo' ass is grown
 Drug dealin' just to get by
 Stack your money 'til it gets sky high
 Kids sing, kids sing
 We wasn't s'posed to make it past 25
 Joke's on you we still alive
 Throw your hands up in the sky and say
 "We don't care what people say"
 The second verse is for my dawgs working nine to five
 That still hustle 'cause a nigga can't shine off $6.55
 And everybody sellin' make up, Jacob's and bootleg tapes
 Just to get they cake up we put shit on layaway then come back
 We claim other people kids on our income tax
 We take that money, cop work then push packs
 To get paid and we don't care what people say
 Momma say she wanna move south
 Scratching lottery tickets eyes on a new house
 'Round the same time dough ran up
 In dude's house couldn't get a job
 So since he couldn't get work, he figured he take work
 The drug game bulimic it's hard to get weight
 So niggas money is homo, it's hard to get straight
 But we gon' keep bakin' to the day we get cake
 And we don't care what people say, my niggas
 Drug dealin' just to get by (yeah)
 Stack your money 'til it gets sky high
 Kids sing, kids sing
 We wasn't s'posed to make it past 25
 Joke's on you we still alive (alive, uh-huh)
 Throw your hands up in the sky and say
 "We don't care what people say" (yeah, yeah, uh)
 You know the kids gonna act a fool
 When you stop the programs for after school
 And pay DCF's
 Some of 'em dyslexic
 They favorite 50 Cent song "12 Questions"
 We scream rocks, blow, weed, park
 See, now we smart, we ain't retards
 The way teachers thought
 Hold up hold fast we make mo' cash
 Now, tell my momma I belong in that slow class
 It's bad enough, we on welfare
 You tryna to put me on the school bus
 With the space for the wheel chair
 I'm tryna get the car with the chromy wheels here
 You tryna cut our lights out like we don't live here
 Look at what's handed us, father's abandon us
 When we get them hammers go and call the ambulance
 Sometimes I feel no one in this world understands us
 But we don't care what people say, my niggas
 Drug dealin' just to get by
 Stack your money 'til it gets sky high
 Kids sing, kids sing
 We wasn't s'posed to make it past 25
 The joke's on you we still alive
 Throw your hands up in the sky and say
 "We don't care what people say"
