Pay Me
Gifted Gab feat. Nacho Picasso Lyrics

Check one two is my microphone ready
I'm making sure my microphone is functioning properly

I'm a light this tree on me, I'm goin' get it
I'm going to smoke marijuana and get high

When the beat drop don't stop just flow with it
When the rhythm in the music changes, don't stop performing, just adapt to it

Who you know picking and rolling with no pivot
Who do you know that can roll a joint without needing a proper tool or surface?

Imagine [?]
Unknown or unclear, could be a reference or a filler line

Got daddy up in the passenger making passes at pastors
My father is making sexual advances towards religious leaders while sitting in the passenger seat

I just need the good word
All I need is positive vibes or uplifting messages

Trying to throw me off my game but I'm not easily deterred
Somebody is trying to distract or discourage me, but I am not easily affected

I'm a make you swallow spit cuz all this shits for the birds
I will make you speechless because what you're saying is meaningless and pointless

You heard? Its Gifted Gab I changed my name but its the same thang
Did you hear? I changed my stage name but I'm still the same talented artist

Still the same nigga killing lames, go bang bang
I'm still the same person who dominates or surpasses less talented competitors

Its insane, we are not the same
It is crazy how different our lifestyles or personalities are

Give em major pain, if I'm able I can give em caine
I can cause significant distress, and if I could, I'd sell them cocaine

Stable when I'm taking aim, the shots goin' rang
I'm calm and composed when aiming to shoot somebody, and the shots will be fired accurately

I'm a crop your top I'm a dot your brain
I will shoot or injure you in the head

I'm a mop your block, I'm a drop your [?]
I'm going to clean up or eliminate your entire neighborhood

I'm a cock back, go brat-t, pop [?]
I will reload my firearm, quickly shoot several times, and possibly hurt somebody

Hashtag go bad, this is not no game
I am serious and dangerous, and this is not a joke or a competition

I'm with Nacho P and we got propane
Nacho Picasso and I are together, and we have access to flammable gas

Fuck that. Pay me. And that's why I get thirty percent
I won't accept anything less than what I deserve, and I get 30% because I'm worth it

When can I start?
I'm eager to begin working and making money

Immedjately
Immediately - a purposely misspelled word for emphasis or style

We grew up watching VCRs and drinking out of jelly jars
We were raised in a humble or old-fashioned environment, with outdated technology and household items

Burning out in muscle cars, eighteen packs of PBR
We used to drive powerful cars recklessly, and drink cheap beer excessively

Give the block CPR, I tell that bitch I hustle hard
I'm trying to revive or rejuvenate my neighborhood, and people who underestimate me should know that I work very hard

I bare a knuckle like wrestlers spar, I steer a truck like bless your heart
I fight with my fists without wearing gloves, and I drive a truck with skill or humor

Moor Gang's a matriarch, Nacho P the patriarch
Our rap collective is led by a powerful woman, and Nacho Picasso is the male leader

Get em wet like the ancient arc, Mohican, I ate your heart
I make people excited or aroused like the famous ark, and I also made a violent act against a Native American tribe

Give me brain cuz you ain't that smart, be my flame cuz you ain't that spark
Have sex with me because you're not very intelligent, and be my girlfriend because you're not very attractive

Eat the blame cuz you played your part, keep your name [?]
Accept the responsibility or the criticism for your actions, and don't try to defend or promote yourself

I'm Caligula, all my niggas jealous
I'm a powerful and eccentric ruler like the Roman emperor, and my friends envy my success or personality

So when I fall in love I just pass it to the fellas
When I develop romantic feelings for someone, I usually share or give up on them quickly, especially to my male friends

Grew up in the rain why they passing us umbrellas
We experienced challenges or struggles while others had it easier, so why should they protect us now?

I'm Vlad the Impaler, harassing all the [?]
I'm a cruel and terrifying leader, and I torment or punish people without mercy

But that's a twilight and this the high life
That's a different or distant time, and now we're living in the moment of success or luxury

No white out, just the highlights
I'm not erasing or hiding anything, I'm just showing the most important or interesting parts

Too bright out, I live the nightlife
Life is too intense or exciting for me during the day, so I prefer to be active and social during the night

White kids see me in the club like high-five
Non-black people who enjoy the same environment as me recognize me and show me respect or admiration

They buy me Mai Tais, don't blow my high guys
They offer me expensive cocktails that may make me drunk, but don't ruin or disrupt my positive mood

They tell me that I'm their favorite, I tell em likewise
They express their admiration for me, and I respond with similar feelings towards them

I got a gold toothed smile and some tight ice
I have a flashy or attractive appearance, with a gold tooth and expensive jewelry

But they worship the flow like its white Christ
However, they still highly value or respect my rapping skills, almost like it's a religious or divine experience
