Hands Up
banks feat 50 cents Lyrics

Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up
Raise your hands up high in the air as a sign of celebration and respect

Hands up shorty when you party with me, we goin' way past quarter to three (I said Hands Up!)
When you hang out with me, be prepared to party hard and late into the night, with your hands still raised high

I'm good in the V.I.P. I got my hammer right here with me (I said Hands Up!)
I am well-respected and protected in the VIP section, as I am carrying a gun for safety

You know when you party with crooks, you gotta learn to respect the jokes (I said Hands Up!)
When you're out with me and my crew, you need to be ready for witty and sometimes offensive jokes and humor

Everything ain't cruise to fame, this shit ain't sweet as it looks (I said Hands Up!)
Success and fame are not easy, sometimes it can be really tough and challenging

You know I'm puttin' something on me right before I leave outta the car (Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up We came to party)
I always carry a firearm for protection, especially when leaving my car to party

You don't tough talkin' at me you gonna leave outta the club with a scar (Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up We came to party)
Do not try to start a fight or talk tough to me, or else you will end up injured and leaving the club with a scar

We pop bottles like it's all free fo' I leave I'ma buy out the bar (Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up We came to party)
We love to celebrate and party so much that we don't mind spending lots of money on buying bottles and drinks for everyone in the bar

You can order what you want it's on me I'm a G take a look at star (Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up We came to party)
I am rich and famous, so you can order whatever you want to drink or eat, my treat

It feels so good to live sucker free
It's a great feeling to live without being taken advantage of or exploited by others

I'm soakin' it all up while your girl suckin' me
I am enjoying the attention and pleasure from your girlfriend while she is performing oral sex on me

It mean the world to her, it's nothing but a nut to me
Her act of sexual pleasure means a lot to her, but to me, it's just a physical release and nothing more

Look miss, get a grip and let a motherfucker be
Please calm down and don't try to control me or my actions

I'm a rap star
I am a successful and famous rapper

Who wants to be ridin' around in that car
Everyone wishes to ride in my luxury car

Two in the front and the back got the plasma
My car has TVs in the front and back seats to watch videos

This ain't a free ride you gotta have the gas ma
My car isn't free to ride in, you need to pay for gas

I wouldn't buy a chick a pump that got asthma
I wouldn't waste my money buying expensive shoes for a woman who has asthma

And I'm busy so I move a bit faster
I am always busy, so I don't have much time to waste

You can't tell me yes if I don't ask ya
Don't assume that I want something if I haven't asked for it

Ha ha I'm a bastard
I have a wicked and mean humor

Damn near showin' his hand over the plastic
I almost revealed that I am carrying a gun by accidentally showing it in my pants

'Cause they wanna see your man go in the casket
People are jealous of my success and happiness and wish to harm me

Rule number one keep your gun and get your ass hit that's it
Always carry a gun for protection, and if you don't, you might get hurt or killed

Lights off and your body's stiff
If someone kills you, your body will be paralyzed and still

By the same niggas you used to party with
You might get killed by the same people you used to hang out and party with

I cruise through the strip
I drive my car leisurely around the city streets

22's on the whip
My car has large 22-inch wheels mounted on it

New rule: gonna hit
I am going to enforce a new set of strict rules

Thousand dollar outfit
I am wearing an expensive outfit and looking stylish

Never snooze never slip
I never relax or make mistakes, always alert

Follow rules or get whip
Obey my new rules or face severe punishment

Nigga move or get hit
Move out of my way or I will hit you

I don't care who's on the strip
I don't care who else is on the street or around me

It ain't only the Ferrari now the jewels got him sick
People are envious and sick with envy not only because of my luxury car but also the expensive jewels I wear

Now it's 2006 I need a new bottom miss
I need a new pair of fancy shoes and it's already 2006

It's aight they can talk I'm amused by the pricks
People can gossip and criticize me, but I find it funny and entertaining

I'm the news out the bricks nigga who's hot as this
I am the most talked-about and successful person from my neighborhood, who is hotter and better than me?

I bet the mansion and the swimming pool got 'em pissed
People are angry and jealous of my luxurious lifestyle, including my mansion and swimming pool

I ain't a cuddler I fuck the drool outta chick
I don't like cuddling or being affectionate, I prefer having rough sex with girls

My niggas ice grill but it ain't the same
My friends have cold and intimidating facial expressions but they have different personalities and are not the same

They don't see the faces they just see the chains
When people look at us, they only see the expensive jewelry and gold chains we are wearing but not our personalities

Like Oh when you get 'em they don't know you with me
People mistakenly think that when I am surrounded by security or entourage, it's hard to tell who is really with me

They probably think the bouncers at the front door frisk me
They might even assume that the bouncers or security personnel at the club are going through my belongings to check if I am carrying a weapon

This is regular shit the everyday mentality
What we are doing and experiencing every day is normal and common for us

They charged up don't make me put in the battery
Don't provoke me or annoy me to the point where I will get aggressive and violent
