Young Jeezy Lyrics

Woke up at the Ritz Carlton, damn sun in my face
I woke up in a fancy hotel, but the sun was shining right in my face and it wasn't a good experience.

Racks in my jeans, gun still on my waist
I'm carrying a lot of money in my pockets and a gun in my waistband for protection.

And I ain't leaving shit in my cup, that's such a waste
I won't leave any drink in my cup, that would be a waste of money.

You know I'm sipping on that straight like that 'oh, what a a taste!'
I'm drinking hard liquor straight and enjoying its taste.

Tip the valet a hundred, I love to stunt
I'm giving $100 tip to the valet to show off my wealth and enjoy the attention.

Pulled up in that mean machine, leave it up front
I arrived in my expensive car and parked it upfront to attract attention.

This passed out thing beside me, I barely know her
A woman is lying unconscious next to me in bed, and I don't even know her well.

But you can just imagine the shit I'm 'bout to show her
I'm about to have sex with her and teach her some new things.

Snow way, them streets too cold, them bitches polar
The streets are too cold and dangerous, and the women here are too hard to handle.

Expectations out of this world, I'm thinking solar
My expectations are very high, and I'm thinking of achieving something great and out of this world.

That's why I do it for that Kalamazoo
I'm doing all this to achieve my goals and dreams, like the people of Kalamazoo.

And then NOLA, that's what happens
I'm also inspired by the people of New Orleans who pursued their dreams.

When you learn to mix it with that soda
I achieved greatness by mixing something ordinary with something extraordinary, like soda with booze.

I wake up just to bake up, get my cake up and rise up
Every day I wake up early to smoke some weed, earn money, and rise up in society.

Motivating factors that I'm liver than most
I'm motivated to succeed in life more than others and achieve more than them.

I boast and bang, pour some pain in that thing
I show off my wealth and success and mix my booze with painkillers to enhance my experience.

Put some purple rain on your brain, unravel the flame
I mix a potent weed strain called purple rain with booze to get high and feel great.

Maintain my fame, get you new pictures
I work hard to maintain my public image and get new photoshoots done.

Just to put in your frame
I get my pictures taken to hang them on my wall and show off my success.

We in the hood blowing kush with The Game
I hang out with rapper The Game and smoke some high-quality weed with him.

Foot in the cane, walking just like I'm an Indian chief
I walk with a swagger and confidence like an Indian chief when I'm high.

With no beef, real brief, with a wreath
I don't have any problems or beef with anyone, and I wear a wreath to show off my success.

You may think it's a leaf!
Some people may mistake my wreath for a leaf, but it's actually a symbol of my success.

With the residue stuck deep down in your teeth
When you smoke weed with me, you may get the residue of it stuck in your teeth.

When you smoking with the dogg, shit, you might not eat!
When you smoke weed with me, you may get high so much that you don't feel like eating.

The coffee that I had, it was good to the last drop
The coffee I had earlier was very good, and I enjoyed every bit of it.

But now I'm fresh out and you know it don't, stop
I've run out of coffee, but I won't stop searching for more and enjoying it.

So please man, somebody call the weed man
I'm out of weed, and I need someone to call my dealer and get me some more.

I'd call mine, but he's been low on herb even
I would call my dealer, but he's also out of stock and can't provide me with more weed.

I'm fiending, daydreaming of the times when I had
I'm craving for weed and daydreaming about the times when I had plenty of it to smoke.

Much mota, many different kinds in the bag
I had lots of weed of different strains and types stored in my bag.

I fell hard for the funk, I can't fake the love
I love the weed so much that I can't fake or hide my obsession for it.

I smoke dro, good Reggie, smoke shake to nugs
I smoke different types of weed from high-quality strains like dro and Reggie to lower quality ones like shake and nugs.

If it's weed, then I'm with it
I'm ready to smoke any type of weed available to me.

You got a paper? Then twist it. You got a bowl? Fill it.
If you have rolling paper or a bowl, I'm willing to smoke weed with you and enjoy it together.

Got a blunt? Let me split it down the gut
If you have a blunt, I'm willing to cut it open and smoke it with you.

But shit for what? Cause ain't no green on the scene
But why bother smoking weed together when we don't have any weed to smoke?

Man, what the fuck?
I'm frustrated and disappointed that we don't have any weed to smoke.
