What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Say, this is the realist shit I ever wrote or I said
2
Wake up with it everyday and take it with me to bed
3
Hurting my heart and hanging over my head
4
'Bout the realest nigga these Texas streets ever bred
5
see L Butler better known as Chad or Pimp see
6
The closest homeboy that I ever had
7
Now when we first met, we wasn't on the same page
8
From pettiness understandings that got cleared up with age
9
Two young boys who was ready to mash
10
Put P A on the map and maybe make a little cash
11
Jumped down with Big Tyme, put down a few songs
12
Everybody co-signed saying that we could do no wrong
13
Then hit the streets with a big ass bang
14
Them gangsta ass rhymes with that country ass twang
15
Dropped, "Tell Me Something Good" took off and went live
16
Shit, next thing you know we was signing to Jive
17
Dropped, "Too Hard to Swallow" "A Pocket Full of Stones"
18
Put the remix on "Menace" shit we had it going on
19
Got, love in the streets and played on the air
20
But the homey putting us out, wasn't playing too fair
21
Had to separate ourself, bring in a new team
22
But sometimes the other side ain't always what it seems
23
We dropped "Super Tight" a album full of killer flows
24
But then we got caught up with the drugs and the hoes
25
We didn't realize what was happening on the real
26
And new management was cutting back room deals
27
Hiding different money and concealing the price
28
He had us doing all the work but was keeping the biggest slice
29
Took a while to catch on, to what homey was doing
30
But by the time we did, all the paperwork was in ruins
31
Nigga kept all the receipts so we couldn't file taxes
32
The next thing you know, IRS hitting us with axes
33
Pimp you owe seven figures, Bun you owe six
34
Better get your paper together, get this shit fixed
35
Remixed the management team and tried it ourself
36
Cussed out the GM, almost got put on the shelf
37
Fuck it, dropped "Ridin' Dirty" instant classic in the South
38
Reclaimed the southern title, shut everybody's mouth
39
Got some clout in the game, boys calling us the greatest
40
But meanwhile me and Pimp is still ducking haters
41
The old manager calling and say he fina' sue
42
And put a padlock on the everything we trying to do
43
Put a call out to the Prince, this nigga still hating
44
We got heat for the streets, and we can't keep the people waiting
45
He made a call to [Incomprehensible] and folks, telling the man
46
You gotta cut UGK some slack understand
47
Young Pimp got the plan, Bun got the drawl
48
Rap-A-Lot had our back and we just waiting on Jive
49
We got the big bosses on the same page
50
So me and young Pimp went hit 'em from center stage
51
Next thing you know we got this call from the N.Y.
52
It's Jay-Z saying y'all niggaz getting fly
53
He doing "Volume 3" and got a track from Timb
54
And wondered could some trill niggaz rock it with him
55
Shit big Bun was all for it, but Pimp wasn't sure
56
But "Big Pimpin" hit 'em 187-Pure
57
Number one song on every station you turn on
58
MTV and BET we getting our burn on
59
Grammy nominated can't believe that we made it
60
And we got a call from Jive that left us all faded
61
And it stated, that due to the success of the track
62
We here at Jive records, would like to piggy back
63
Get another beat from Timb, then get a verse from Jay
64
Let Hype shoot the video and we'll be on the way
65
Shit it sounded okay, but me I had to ask
66
If we don't do Big Pimpin 2, would you still put us on blast
67
A song like that might take a nigga to the top
68
But my true fan base, might think a nigga flop
69
They got mad and put niggaz on hold
70
For damn near a year till the buzz got cold
71
So we said fuck 'em and went back to the basics
72
Trying to find ways to get the fuck up out the matrix
73
We put "Dirty Money" together and it was aces
74
But that's around the time that Pimp caught two cases
75
He got probation, said, "Fuck you hoes"
76
We finish the album, got ready to do a couple shows
77
And then he violated, one month before we dropped
78
And shit just got put on hold or fucking stopped
79
Now 30 days done, we back to the nitty-gritty
80
Album got released, big showdown in Chocolate City
81
Niggaz with masks on, vests and all black
82
It's Christmas 2000 and 1, bitch we was all that
83
Strongest on the block, nobody could budge
84
And then he violated, now we right back before the judge
85
They calling him a nuisance, put my dog behind a fence
86
It was January 28th, he ain't been home since
87
Threw a nigga through a loop and caught me in the crosses
88
Standing cold, CEO, now I'm the fucking boss
89
Had the devil on my back, got to drinking and drugging
90
Had to make a choice, get back to rapping or thugging
91
So I walked into my bedroom, got down on my knees
92
Put my hands together and I prayed Lord please
93
Let me get past this bridge over water that's trouble
94
And get back up on my grind on the double
95
He said son don't worry 'cause it's not really hard as it seem
96
And I can turn your nightmares back into dreams
97
You just got to stay true to yourself and succeed
98
Then push away from the devil and get closer to me
99
And every since that night man I promise I been on it
100
Giving that killer flow to anybody who want it
101
Pimp the pen like never before, I'm breaking 'em G
102
Not to mention I got the world screaming free Pimp see
103
So soon as you make parole and they open the doors
104
You ain't gotta worry about nothing, the world is yours
105
Ain't no mo' struggles my nigga and no mo' stripe
106
I kept it real because to me it's UGK for life
