Standing Ovation
Young Jeezy/Musicfire.in Lyrics

I told 'em straight drop this and zip lock that
I instructed them to handle the drugs carefully and pack it well

Right on my waistline is where I kept that strap (yeah)
I carried my gun right around my waistline to protect myself

I remember nights I didn't remember nights (nights)
I recall having blackouts and losing my memory from the drugs and stress

I damn near went crazy, had to get it right (that's right)
I was on the verge of insanity and had to turn my life around

Now I'm ya favorite rapper's favorite rapper (hey)
Now I am the top choice of all the other popular rappers

Now I'm ya favorite trapper's favorite trapper (ha ha)
Now I am the most admired and respected drug dealer among others in the trade

The absolute truth, yeah I'm no joke
I am undeniably telling the truth about my experiences, and not just trying to make jokes

Who me, I emerge from the crack smoked (yeah)
I came up from the lowest of the lows and the drug-filled environment that I was in

In the hearts of those who grind with O's (O's)
Among those who also deal drugs, they can relate to and feel my struggles and hardships

They feel my pain, they at my shows (jeah)
Those who can relate to my experiences come to my concerts/performances to show their support

That's why I got this glass pot and this triple beam (what)
I use precise tools like a glass pot and a triple beam to measure out drugs carefully

I tell 'em Money Talks like Charlie Sheen (hey)
I explain to them that in the drug dealing industry, being able to speak and negotiate well is important

[Chorus: x2]
This is the chorus that repeats twice throughout the song

Once upon a time, I used to grind all night (grind all night)
There was a time when I would work all night and constantly hustle to make money

With that residue, that was Ipod white (yeah)
I used to handle drugs with a residue that was white like an iPod

I'm a boss, I got Juice like the magazine (jeah)
I am the boss and have power and influence, similar to a popular music magazine

And everyday I see Feds like a magazine (ha ha)
I come across federal agents every day, just like reading a magazine

Psychopathic wordplay, schizophrenic flow (flow)
My way of talking is twisted and my rapping style is crazy and unpredictable

I guess it's safe to say I got schizophrenic dough (damn)
I made a lot of money dealing drugs, but it has also driven me insane

Fuck bad bitches, smoke big blunts (jeah)
I do not care about having sex with women who do not matter to me, instead I rather smoke large amounts of marijuana

Who am I to tell ya different? Ya only live once (let's get it)
I am not in a position to tell people to do otherwise, as we only live once and should enjoy ourselves

All I blow is kush, yeah that cali bud (bud)
I only smoke high-quality, expensive weed from California

Got cali love when I got that cali glove (hey)
I got respect and admiration from others in California for my skills and approach towards the drug dealing industry

My spanish bitch in L.A., yeah I owe her one (one)
I have a Spanish girlfriend in Los Angeles that I owe a favor to

Now them squares seventeen like Uncle Brady's son (yeah)
Now, inexperienced people who knew nothing about drugs before, are involved in the business and look up to me

My brains pulse through my veins, man I can't understand it
I feel a strong rush and sensation in my mind that I cannot explain

Infatuation with the birds, I watch Animal Planet (ha ha)
I have a strong attraction to making money through selling drugs and it interests me like watching Animal Planet

My life's a motion picture in Dolby Digital (hey)
My life is like a high-quality movie that is played in surround sound

Tree raiser and the scale it was digital
I grew and sold large amounts of marijuana and used digital scales to measure it out

Calculate my every step, I'm a mathematician
I carefully plan out every move I make and think about it like a mathematician would

Make them pigeons disappear, I'm a damn magician (yeah)
I can make those who work for me disappear without a trace, like a magician

A .40 cal, rubber bands, and a shoebox (jeah)
I have a gun, rubber bands to wrap my money, and a shoebox to store it all

Run through a hundred grand watching Matlock (hey)
I can easily spend $100,000 while relaxing and watching TV

Got it by the truckload, like the bread people (jeah)
I have a large amount of money like the companies that transport bread have a lot of bread

I got a Sixth Sense, I stack dead people (that's right)
I have a sense and awareness of the illegal activities I am involved in and have gained money from killing others

I'm talking Grants and Jacksons
I am discussing the US Grant and Andrew Jackson notes that I use to count large sums of money
