lyrics

Fast money best know when to sell
phil slick invited to ring the opening bell
fifty's the new twenty when you're up at the bar
gimme the loot
lovely
and Ill run to the mall

They gon hit or they miss
gon live with the jist
spending rebate checks on liquor and kicks
need credit for scripts and the kids
Won't edit the ridiculousness
Soul threatened from the system we live
go-getters in an ignorant bliss
Know better make sure the picture is crisp
Life's a gamble, break your thumb twiddiling
Big bucks for the fist pump middlemen

This for the
Dale Gribbles in the crowd
This for the
Stale Pistols in the ground
This for the
Synthesized high fructose corn syrup in the nutrition in our mouths

In the land of gamble and huff
no band gon handle the funk
so sue me, I'ma sample the stuff
More than just the jam of the month
flows deep beneathe the earth's crust and it erupts
The same Challenger that made yall feel his pain machine
is now shocking hip hop when he lace the scene
Be the
new creature with the ancient genes
Rules everywhere around me
ain't the CREAM
never hate to dream
It don't take, I don't take offense
I lace up and change events

Like a DJ with breaks on deck
never liable
B-Boy Chiro:
Saved your neck

Emcees like whinos in major debt
blindfold on the wise old sage who jests
Threw on vinyl
timed all delays correct
with no timecode
I wrote a page of text and got over.

To my people out there ain't living legit
all people out there crate diggin for hits
all workers out there straight clickin' through shifts
tune out for a minute, say

"Gonna get over"

To writers when they flipping your script
all fighters when they stiffen defense
ill bands hitting up talent buyers like "Listen to This!"
Believe me when I say that you

"Gonna Get Over"

Trying to make it with an honest rapd
be new but pay homage back
getting caught for sampling something not even on the track
I'm tell you, you

"Gonna Get Over"

To all of yall that's still struggling
Survival got you bugging
but you alive on arrival
Even if your boss downsize you
throw your hands in the air like

"Gonna Get Over"
