Hustler's Withdrawal Lyrics

Yeah, hah
Yo, ugh
Yeah

Yeah, hah
Yo, ugh
Yeah

He went from a street kid doin' regular street things
Straight to a street king
Takin' over the city, block by block
Breakin' down bricks, servin' them rock by rock

He's everythin' a young gun wanna grow up to be
But if only these young guns could see
That murder, money and lust is slowly murderin' us
'Cuz the drug game ain't what it used to be

So look deeper when they paint you a picture
And try to sell you a dream
'Cuz a lot of these drug lords turn
To the feds or turn into fiends

The crack game ain't everythin' it's cracked up to be
Now that same cat that was a, neighborhood celebrity
Is coppin' rocks off the news kids on the block
At the same time tryna school them

But these hoodlums got heads
As hard as the rocks that he's doin'
Hustlin's like a drug, it's got withdrawal symptoms
And if you know this, you won't skip fame

But you will gain wisdom
And wisdom gains power
Don't let your life go sour over power

Hustlin's like a drug, it's addictin'
The more you hustle, the more you get addicted
The longer you hustle, the deeper the addiction
If you used to push weight you relate
(It's the hustler's withdrawal)

Hustlin's like a drug, it's addictin'
The more you hustle, the more you get addicted
The longer you hustle, the deeper the addiction
If you used to push weight you relate
(It's the hustler's withdrawal)

Not only did my father used to deal dope
He used to do the dope he used to deal, I'm jus' keepin' it real
Now my father doesn't have shit, I don't have shit, we don't have shit
'Cuz he didn't stack shit

With all the money he made
He didn't think for one second to put money away
That's 'cuz his mind was clouded with white thoughts
He's lucky that he didn't end up outlined in white chalk

The only thing I can say I gained from my father is
Knowledge of the street game
And I hope that y'all follow this
I can't say I haven't sold weed or cocaine

But I can say this
Money that comes quick, leaves quick
[ Pitbull Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
And y'all better believe this
'Cuz this I've lived and witnessed

Catch a couple of charges
Now, you're on the Lord's shit list
Now, you're forced to do business
Until this business does you of course

'Cuz you can die from doin' dope or dealin' dope, either or
You choose the road that you need to follow
And you choose the people
That you look up to as role models

Hustlin's like a drug, it's addictin'
The more you hustle, the more you get addicted
The longer you hustle, the deeper the addiction
If you used to push weight you relate
(It's the hustler's withdrawal)

Hustlin's like a drug, it's addictin'
The more you hustle, the more you get addicted
The longer you hustle, the deeper the addiction
If you used to push weight you relate
(It's the hustler's withdrawal)

I know about hustler's but I won't mention no names
'Cuz they still got cases pendin'
And some are even, appealin', life in the cage
At least they made it past the first phase, they passed a certain age

Hustlin's like AIDS at first you're infected with HIV and then it's full blown
Only difference is instead of havin' no immune system
You become immune to the system of havin' dough, by dealin' blow
It's a fast life and even if you survive, your mind will die slow

Dirty money attracts, dirty things
And if you plan to deal dope
I hope you're ready for the murder game
'Cuz that's what it brings

I'm not a preacher, I'm not tryin' to preach, no
I'm not a teacher, I'm not tryna teach but yet
Like a faucet, I'm tryin' to leak
Any foe, tell these young'ns and their kinfolk

And let em' know there's more to life than a G of coke
If you used to push weight then you relate
'Cuz you already had a taste of
Hustler's withdrawal

Hustlin's like a drug, it's addictin'
The more you hustle, the more you get addicted
The longer you hustle, the deeper the addiction
If you used to push weight you relate
(It's the hustler's withdrawal)

Hustlin's like a drug, it's addictin'
The more you hustle, the more you get addicted
The longer you hustle, the deeper the addiction
If you used to push weight you relate
(It's the hustler's withdrawal)
