I'm So Paid-Instr
Akon ft Lil Wayne Lyrics

Rubbing on that Italian leather
Enjoying the feel of his expensive clothing.

'Dem Konvict jeans on!
Wearing Akon's own line of jeans.

Ay yo Weezy! You Ready, yeah!
Asking Lil Wayne if he's ready to start the song.

I get it in 'till sunrise
Working hard all night until morning.

Doing ninety in a sixty five
Driving fast and dangerously above the speed limit.

Windows rolled down screaming ah!
Feeling free and alive while driving.

Hey-ey-ey' I'm so paid
Feeling confident and rich.

Number one hustla' gettin' money
Acknowledging his success as a top earner.

Why do you wanna count my money
Asking why others are so interested in his wealth.

I'm a hustla' and I don't need them!
Declaring his independence and ability to succeed.

One of them y'all see! I'm so paid
Demonstrating his success to those who doubted him.

I see police on the crooked I
Spotting police on the freeway.

Doing a hundred on the Interstate 95
Driving fast and recklessly.

My shawty leanin' blasting that Do or Die
His girlfriend leans with the music while driving fast.

Pushin' that motherfuckin' wood cause we certified
Driving with confidence because they're a respected gang.

Got a system that'll beat and knock your wall off
Having powerful speakers in his car.

Got a pump under my seat, the sawed-off
Concealing a powerful gun in his car.

Got a bunch of goons, hoping they never call off
Having a team of loyal and violent friends.

I'm a sniper sitting on the roof already saw y'all
Observing from a distance and being prepared for potential danger.

It ain't too much to put a strain on me
Having the ability to handle a lot of stress.

That's the reason why I had to put the blame on me
Taking responsibility for his actions to avoid blame from others.

I rather have them dollar bills rain on me
Preferring to have money come to him than to be criticized by others.

Then let them haters come and make the name of me that's why
Avoiding the negativity of others by focusing on his own success.

She said young why ya voice so hoarse
His girlfriend notices his raspy voice.

I just sound like money
Believing that his voice represents his wealth.

Baby I should've been a Porsche (Vroom)
Comparing himself to a fast and expensive car.

Paint lookin' like a sugar free Redbull
Referring to the color of his car.

I'm so paid ya know I keep a pocketful
Having money with him at all times.

And that's before the taxes
Having lots of money even before taxes.

Took my whole gross net and hid it under my mattress
Keeping all his earnings out of banks and away from the government.

I use to get bored count 20's for practice
Counting money used to be a common pastime.

Paper therapy we let the money relax us
Finding comfort and relaxation in counting money.

Gold chains round my neck just like Michael Phelps
Wearing thick and expensive necklaces like a sports superstar.

I made a killin' in the water killin' with da water
Making money through illegal activities like drug trafficking.

Against all odds and I will not stop
Overcoming obstacles and persisting in his success.

They try and keep me on bottom but I prefer the top
Fighting to stay at the top and not let others bring him down.

And my project chick I moved her next to Joc
Moving his girlfriend to be close to another rapper named Joc.

She said the house was too small I moved her next to block
Buying a bigger house near his girlfriend's preferred neighborhood.

So baby get ya ass up I need an extra block
Asking her to move again to a different location.

I told her do the speed limit and no extra stops and that's why
Telling her to obey the law while driving.

I am the boss it only takes one call
Having power and control over others.

For a driver to hit you up and drop you off that's all
Being able to easily have someone taken care of.

Guess what I won't be taking that fall
Refusing to take blame or suffer consequences.

Homie I got cake that's what I'm paying them for (aha!)
Paying others to take care of his problems.

Ain't that funny
Finding humor in the situations he faces.

Cause niggas want war but ain't got money
Others want to fight, but they don't have the power or wealth to do it.

Cause I've seen them all talking 'till they start gunnin'
Knowing that many people talk tough until danger arises.

Quicker than Usain Bolt the fastest thing running
Acting quickly and efficiently in tough situations.

Yeah! Akon! Weezy! Jezzy!
Acknowledging the artists featured on the song.

Block oil holdin' down Jersey
Being a powerful force in the streets of New Jersey.

Devine making sure we gettin' it up front
Having someone ensuring they get paid quickly.

My little brother Boo got that vision baby-y!
Having a younger sibling who has the same drive and ambition.

Oh-oh, big money Weezy
Acknowledging Lil Wayne's success and wealth.

White wife beater with the sig underneath it
Wearing a white tank top with a concealed weapon.

How do I feel bitch I feel undefeated
Feeling confident and unbeatable.

Snap my fingers disappear from the precinct yea!
Having the power and connections to escape law enforcement.

I'm ballin' we ball out
Enjoying their wealth and success.

Thoughts of we fallin' 'til the ball bounce
Worrying about losing money, but confident that they'll bounce back.

I send some niggas with guns at y'all house
Threatening violence against someone.

Only to find out you live in a doll house damn!
Discovering that someone's home is small and insignificant.

But I thought you was tough though
Being surprised to find out that someone wasn't as strong or influential as thought.

We carry choppers on our necks call it cut throat
Always carrying weapons around.

We bury cowards on the set that they come from
Killing those who show weakness or disrespect in their territory.

We know magic turn weed smoke to gun smoke
Being able to turn a peaceful situation into a violent one.

We, ride first when we ride
Taking the lead and being dominant.

You, in a hearse when you ride
Being at a disadvantage and likely to suffer death.

I put my shoe down baby
Being firm and commanding.

And I'm holding down Young Mula baby!
Maintaining respect for his team/label.
