[00:05.21]cheesy rat blues
[00:07.77]Nothin can save ya
[00:09.02]Nothin, can save ya
[00:11.59]Nothin can save ya
[00:13.33]*scratched* Nothin
[00:14.15]Just throw your hands in the air
[00:16.15]And wave 'em like you just don't care
[00:17.83]
[00:18.70]Keep 'em there
[00:19.46]
[00:20.02]Yo, run the jewels, run the jewels, run the jewels
[00:21.83]*scratched* Can you feel it
[00:22.95]
[00:23.84]I used to be rollin like a millionaire
[00:25.58]Cash in a flash, bankroll to spare
[00:27.64]Homeboys hangin, champagne and girls
[00:30.77]Got my main woman Diamonds, my mistress Pearls
[00:32.52]Everybody laughin at my corny jokes
[00:34.96]
[00:35.58]I was stupid; I thought that they were sincere folks
[00:38.52]It turned out they liked the money and the fame
[00:40.83]If I ain't get paid, I'd be that nobody James
[00:43.20]The nobody, who dreamed about bein somebody
[00:45.08]Chief rocker at the party
[00:47.33]
[00:47.83]And they was hangin like, ＂Yo, I'm your man
[00:50.35]I don't even care about the ring on your hand＂
[00:53.04]We'd go out to eat and chill
[00:54.91]But they would go to the bathroom when it was time to pay the bill
[00:58.35]I didn't notice all the chuckles and laughter
[00:59.72]Too busy with a female tellin me I'm the master
[01:01.60]
[01:02.41]I was slick like, ＂Huh, do I know you?
[01:05.35]I got play, here, let me show ya＂
[01:07.10]Used to have a girl that was on the ball
[01:09.09]When the cash flow got low, so did her calls
[01:11.10]Used to have a homeboy, always chillin
[01:13.10]My cash went low, he told me I was illin
[01:16.41]
[01:17.16]And don't call cause he don't hang with derelicts
[01:18.97]Broke with no cash, yo, I was in the mix
[01:21.03]Everybody stepped cause my pocket wasn't fat
[01:23.22]
[01:24.10]My girl got a new man, I fixed his flat
[01:26.22]I'm the one that they're laughin' at
[01:28.04]They say, ＂Cheesy rat, you ain't all that＂
[01:31.86]
[01:32.80]Chorus: *BizMarkie again*
[01:34.54]Can you feel it?
[01:35.99]Can you feel it?
[01:37.11]Can you feel it?
[01:38.98]Can you feel it?
[01:41.04]Nothin can save ya
[01:42.31]I mean crabbin, played out by backstabbin; I feel like tiein
[01:45.25]A anchor to my ankle and jumpin right in the ocean
[01:48.12]Cause I'm ashy and I can't afford lotion
[01:50.25]So-called friends in the jewelry store
[01:51.75]Told me, ＂Todd, come back when you get off tour＂
[01:55.12]Souped as hell, I really regret it
[01:57.68]Now the only thing I got in my pocket is bad credit
[02:00.06]How can a man like me
[02:02.31]Be walkin around in a world of misery?
[02:04.18]And if women like a man with a body, it's not mine
[02:07.56]Cause they be walkin past me like I'm a stop sign
[02:09.62]My homeboys laugh when they pass the forty
[02:11.49]Sayin, ＂Todd, as if he used to have a sporty＂
[02:14.50]The Benz was slammin, the Jeep was pumpin
[02:16.31]Ain't that somethin?
[02:17.35]
[02:19.78]I just laugh, this isn't what I was raised for
[02:21.97]When I walk away, it's like ain't this a
[02:23.86]Kick in the rear, that I'm standin here
[02:25.36]And can't afford a tissue for my tear
[02:26.99]Should I drink wine and brandy
[02:28.05]Or get a job puttin stripes on candy
[02:29.68]Or put a hole in donuts?
[02:30.86]Cause when you're broke, your middle name is ＂so-what?＂
[02:33.61]I had to learn in an incredibly fast way
[02:35.80]
[02:40.80]When you ain't got no money they treat you like an ashtray
[02:43.62]I pawned all my jewelry and clothes
[02:45.62]Right after that, I got dissed by all the hoes
[02:48.37]That I thought was mine, but really never was
[02:50.49]Soon the whole neighborhood got the buzz
[02:52.24]That my tank was on ＂E＂, and that means empty
[02:55.24]That Twinkie looks good, so mister don't tempt me
[02:57.55]Everybody thought I was trippin
[02:59.87]I rode the back of the bus, but my grip kept on slippin
[03:02.62]I'm the man that they're laughin at
[03:05.05]They say, ＂Cheesy rat, thatyou ain't all ＂
[03:07.48]
[03:17.47]I wanna hang with my man like, ＂Let's do this＂
[03:19.47]But this man like ＂Who this?＂
[03:22.04]
[03:22.66]That's right, the brother got two faces
[03:24.10]They got me puttin the tips on shoelaces
[03:26.42]P on the Puma, a mop and a bucket
[03:29.29]My motto is... I don't care
[03:32.41]I don't give a damn, so what, why try?
[03:34.97]I might as well rob some Blake Carrington sucker for his money
[03:37.35]It's so funny
[03:37.61]
[03:42.05]Cars ride by with the boomin system
[03:43.68]Sayin, ＂Leave him alone, my man already dissed him＂
[03:46.68]Now I'm on the cheeseline, poverty-stricken
[03:47.92]As the red tape thickens
[03:49.24]I go to the park, they wanna baseball-bat me
[03:51.99]I go to the mall, they throw my old tapes meat
[03:55.97]
[03:57.47]I'm so horny
[03:58.23]And every girl I know be like, ＂He's so corny＂
[04:01.79]I want money in a hurry
[04:03.41]I'm gettin tired of leftover curry
[04:04.91]
[04:05.73]I wanna fall off, but I don't know where the edge is
[04:08.47]I'm so hungry, I eat my neighbor's hedges
[04:10.29]Now I realize I gotta go for mine
[04:12.47]

[04:20.22]
[04:20.90]I'm a desperado
[04:21.53]＂I'ma steal your rims＂ is my motto
[04:25.21]I watch wrestlin until I'm dizzy sore
