How Does It Feel
Too $hort Lyrics

How does it feel when ya livin' like that, and ya pockets are fat?
What is the feeling when you are living large with lots of money in your pockets?

'Cause you're a playa, and you're pimpin' hoes
This is because you are a player in the game and you are pimping women.

So tell me how does it feel when ya money ain't right,
How does it feel when you are broke and have no money?

And ya pockets are tight?
And your pockets are empty?

You're still a hustla, and you can't let go
You are still a hustler and you cannot give up your ways.

When I was broke, I used to feel the pain
When I was poor, I felt the pain.

Now I got money, ain't nothin' changed
Now that I have money, nothing has changed.

Same hustla, tryin' to hold on to what I got
I am still the same hustler, trying to hold onto what I have.

And that's a lot, players like me can't be stopped
And what I have is a lot, players like me cannot be stopped.

I was starvin', couldn't afford a TV Dinner
I was starving and could not afford to buy a simple TV dinner.

But now I roll around in a DB-7
But now I drive around in a luxurious DB-7.

Throwin' up the two, to the hoes and pimps
I am throwing up the peace sign to women and other pimps.

It's all about the money, you know what I'm gettin'
It is all about the money, and you know what I am getting.

How the fuck you think I felt when I was broke
Do you even know how I felt when I was broke?

All the rumors I got killed and I was smoked
There were rumors that I was killed and smoked like a cigarette.

I tell the truth, I don't care how you feel about me
I always tell the truth, and I do not care about your feelings towards me.

I'm still in the game and you still gotta see
I am still in the game, and you still have to deal with me.

My face goin' down the muthafuckin' street
My face is recognized as I am seen on the street.

Top down, beat loud with a top-notch freak
I am driving with the top down and music blasting, with a spectacular woman by my side.

You say it ain't real life
You say that this is not real life.

'cause you don't know what it feels like, beyotch
Because you do not know how it feels like, you bitch.

I feel like I'm a million dollar bill
I feel like I am worth a million dollars.

Still in the game, all about the real
I am still in the game, and it is all about being real.

Can't feel sorry for you, do your thang
I cannot feel sorry for you, do what you do.

Don't be mad at the world 'cause you can't hang
Do not be angry with the world just because you cannot cope with it.

If you feel like doin' somethin' that ain't productive
If you feel like doing something that is not productive.

Look in the mirror, check yourself and say 'fuck it'
Look in the mirror, check yourself, and say 'forget it.'

It's the year two-thousand, I know you feel me
It's the year 2000, and I know you understand me.

But I can't understand why you niggas want to kill me
But I cannot understand why you people want to kill me.

Went from broke to rich, I got your bitch kneelin'
I went from being poor to being rich, and your woman is now kneeling before me.

I told her 'smoke this dick bitch, don't fight the feelin''
I told her to engage in oral sex and not resist the urge to do so.

And when she did it, she started jockin' me
And when she engaged in oral sex, she started craving more from me.

I saw it in your eyes, you felt like sockin' me
I saw in your eyes that you wanted to punch me for what I did.

For every action there's a consequence
Every action has a consequence.

Playa-haters always tryna start some shit
Haters are always attempting to cause problems for players.

But then you gotta fight these niggas here
But then you have to fight against these people here.

It feels good to be a playa, bitches everywhere
It feels good to be a player, with women everywhere.

I feel like eleven albums ain't enough
I feel like I need more than eleven albums.

And at the same time you feel like you can't come up
And at the same time, you feel like you cannot make it.

Sometimes real life don't feel right
Sometimes real life does not feel correct.

You been fuckin' her for years but its still tight
You have been having sex with her for years, but it still feels tight.

Then I came through bammin', vagina started expandin'
Then I came through and had sex with her, and her vagina started to expand.

Used to be shallow, but now you landed in
Her vagina used to be shallow, but now you have landed in it deep.

Deep water drownin' and that's some real game
You are in deep water and struggling, and that is the reality.

It's been your pussy for years, but it don't feel the same
You have been having sex with her for years, but it does not feel the same anymore.

I been creepin', feelin' your bitch up on the weekend
I have been sneaking around, touching your woman over the weekend.

Is it still good she calls me Dr. Feelgood
Is it still enjoyable for her, which makes her call me Dr. Feelgood?

I'll be her last pimp, you just a has been
I will be her last pimp, and you are just a has-been now.

And when she talks about you its all past tense
And when she talks about you, it is all in the past tense.

I said I don't give a fuck about history
I said I do not care about history.

I'll tell you bout my life then show you how this dick'll be
I will tell you about my life and then show you how good my penis can be.

In you all night, go ask your bitch was she feelin' me
I will be inside her all night, and you can ask her how she felt with me.

Man, you niggas be killin' me, haters
You haters are really amusing me.

[Chorus]
The chorus is repeating the same verses about having money or being broke, but still being a player or hustler.
