Coming Up
P.M.C. Lyrics

Hold up (Hold Up), we jammin'
Wait a minute, let's get ready to party and have a good time.

I can't let nobody hold me down-these ho's could never hold me (never hold me)
I won't let anyone hold me back, especially not these women who have no power over me.

Cause I'm comin' down, playa surroundin' livin' these ho's fantasy
I'm living the high life and surrounded by women who want to be with me, but it's not real because they only want my money and fame.

Cause I'm choppin' blades and playin' maze and these bitches they can't stand it (can't stand it)
I'm driving fancy cars and living a maze-like lifestyle, and these women can't handle it because they're not used to this kind of luxury.

Peep up in this game and this thing is so demandin'
Being successful in the music industry is very difficult and requires a lot of hard work and dedication.

I'm comin up (choppin' on dubs and showin 'em love)
I'm on the rise, driving expensive cars and showing love to those who support me.

2000-Fizive and you are not fly enough (young bitch)
It's the year 2005 and if you're not cool or successful enough, I don't want to associate with you.

Uh Hold up young bitch-bitch I just don't wanna stop comin'up
Wait a minute, I'm not ready to slow down or stop my success just yet.

Uh it's never too much the paper I make
I can never have too much money or success.

These other pussy niggas ain't real them ho's fake
These other men in the industry are fake and cowardly, like the women who only want me for my money.

I'm Sweet James Jones when you come through bitch
My alter ego is Sweet James Jones, a confident and successful persona that I embody when others are around.

I treat you good because you know I'm rich
I am nice to you because you know I have a lot of money and can potentially help you in the industry.

I was in the ghetto-had nothin'
I came from humble beginnings and had nothing growing up.

Sold a lot of records and grabbed somethin'
I became successful in the music industry and was able to purchase luxurious items.

Now I'm goin' through movies in L.A
I am now getting involved in the movie industry and living a Hollywood lifestyle in Los Angeles.

Playin' the game the way the hustlers play
I am navigating the music industry like a hustler would navigate any other industry or game.

And everyday I try to stack my grip and make three songs
I try to make three songs a day and accumulate as much money as possible.

I'm try'na get my mothafuckin' paper on
I am trying to earn as much money as possible.

I want the new (bone?) and the new cell phone
I want the latest and greatest technology, such as the newest type of car and phone.

I want the new two way pager and the new mansion home
I want the newest type of pager and a luxurious mansion to live in.

In Houston cause that is my city
I am proud to come from Houston and represent the city in my music.

And them other pussy niggas they record sound shitty
Other men in the industry are not as good as me and make bad music.

When I see you in the town I'm a hit you up
When I see you in town, I am going to confront you or call you out for not being as successful as me.

You never could take my dream cause you niggas fucked up
No one can take away my success or dreams because they were not able to achieve the same level of success due to their own mistakes or shortcomings.

I remember when I had to come up just to come down
I remember the struggle of trying to achieve success and make a name for myself.

That's the reason for my uncontrollable ballin' right now
The struggles I faced in the past motivate me to be successful and live a luxurious lifestyle.

Use to be scared to walk in the store I payed the price now
I used to be afraid to go into expensive stores because I didn't have the money to pay for anything, but now I can afford it.

My life is to valuable for me to play with life now
I have become successful and my life is too valuable to risk or throw away.

Of course it's gon' be some niggas who think I done changed
There will always be people who think I have changed and become too arrogant or different from my past self.

They find me guility just because now I got diamonds on every thing
People judge me for having diamonds and other expensive items, assuming I have become too materialistic.

My mouth and my pinky ring, my wrist and my neck
I have expensive jewelry on my mouth, pinky finger, wrist, and neck.

I'm 'bout my business so give me my cash or give me my check
I am focused on earning money and making profits, so give me the money I am owed.

See I can biblically remember me and Trae on the block
I remember clearly when Trae and I were hustling on the street, trying to make money.

Even more then hustlin' sometimes we had to lay on the block
Sometimes we had to lay on the street corner to sell drugs and make money.

Eat, sleep, shit, piss, pray on the block
Our entire lives revolved around making money on the street corner.

To make it through the night to see another day on the block
We had to survive each night on the street to live and make money another day.

Movin' rocks got us full pockets-plus knots in our socks
Dealing drugs made us a lot of money and we had stacks of cash with knots in our socks.

But now money be comin' in wadd's like blocks
Now I am earning even more money, with stacks of cash coming in as frequently as blocks.

Let's go half on a Yacht-I got the pot you got the chicken fried steak
Let's split the cost of a yacht and enjoy some chicken fried steak together.

I can't even hear you haters you've been muted by my paper chase
I am so focused on earning money that I don't even hear or care about the negative opinions of those who hate me.

Who would've known that this rap shit would take me far
I never would have guessed that success in the rap industry would bring me this much wealth and power.

At 18 I had a fifty-thousand dollar car
I was only 18 when I was able to afford a car worth $50,000.

I went from Jag to Benz but not the regular kind
I upgraded my cars from a Jaguar to a Mercedes-Benz, but not just any regular kind of Benz.

Now I'm smokin' hydro not the regular pine
I am now smoking high-quality marijuana, not the cheap stuff.

I spit one freestyle now I'm rockin' clubs
I was able to gain fame and perform in popular clubs just from one freestyle rap performance.

After 'Diamonds N Yo Face' I was coppin' dubs
After my song 'Diamonds N Yo Face' became popular, I was able to purchase expensive cars.

I had to make the transition from a boy to a man
I had to grow up and become more responsible as I became more successful in the music industry.

So if you wanna 16 that's forty-grand
If you want me to collaborate on a song with you, it will cost $40,000.

Rappers talk a lot of shit but you ain't stoppin' us
Other rappers may talk poorly about me, but they can't actually do anything to stop my success.

Look you don't wanna bump heads with a mafia (Huh)
You don't want to provoke me or my associates, who are like a mafia.

Look you don't know shit about UGK
You don't actually know anything about me or my group, UGK.

Or Mr. Fat Pat and Grey Screw tapes
You also don't know anything about my colleagues Mr. Fat Pat and DJ Screw and their influential mixtapes.

I rep the Screwed Up Click peep the watch I'm wearin'
I represent the Screwed Up Click music collective and am showing off the expensive watch I am wearing.

I'm the first cat in Houston with a black Meclaron
I am the first person in Houston to own a black McLaren sports car.

Lil' Flipper tote pistols for them none believers
I carry guns to protect myself against those who doubt my success or try to bring me down.

Cause down here we poppin' trunks on Cadillacs and Regals (Oh boy)
In Houston, we show off our cars and play loud music by opening the trunks of our Cadillacs and Regals.

Peep up in this game and this thing is so demandin'
Being successful in the music industry is very difficult and requires a lot of hard work and dedication.

I'm comin' up (choppin' on dubs and showin' 'em love)
I am on the rise, driving expensive cars and showing love to those who support me.

2000-Fizive and you are not fly enough (young bitch)
It's the year 2005 and if you're not cool or successful enough, I don't want to associate with you.

Uh Hold up young bitch-bitch I just don't wanna stop comin' up
Wait a minute, I'm not ready to slow down or stop my success just yet.
