9
[Too $hort]
10
The foundation was laid several years ago
11
I built a whole empire in your stereo
12
Got a four leaf clover representin the Bay
13
Oakland, Frisco, Vallejo, and EPA
14
We keep the shit together, let's keep it that way
15
From Sacramento all the way to San Jose
16
We in a new era, for ten years you made hits
17
so what's up E-Feezi? (We still the shit) Beotch!
18
[E-40]
19
How you think I got this pot belly, overnight?
20
Shet a nig-ga was hongry, I had an appetite
21
Just like a lot of my people that's caught up in the struggle
22
Motherfuckers tryin to bubble, niggaz tired of slangin
23
Barney Rubble, gettin in trouble and fuckin up
24
Parole got me makin my kids piss in a cup
25
It's cold, that's why I got a few bucks, I put up
26
from sellin greens, investing in some vending machines
27
From the ground up
28
[Chorus: K-Ci and JoJo]
29
We started, with nothing
30
From nothing, we made something
31
Nobody really gave a damn about us
32
From the bottom, we started
33
We started, with nothing
34
From nothing, we made something
35
Nobody really gave a damn about us
36
From the ground on up!
37
[E-40]
38
From the ground up, here go some details
39
This verse right here was made, said strictly for the females
40
Don't y'all know it's time for y'all to blow up, like Napalm
41
Instead of sellin Tupperware, and Avon
42
Get your business license, go on and put the peas in the pot
43
Tell your baby to get your baby daddy to buy you a nail shop
44
or a beauty saloon, since he come to be the biggest tycoon
45
with methamphetamine laughs and heroin balloons
46
[Too $hort]
47
The po-lice pulled me over laid a nigga on the ground
48
Searched my car real good I know you know what they found
49
I had the trunk, full of that junk
50
X-Rated lyrics, laced with the funk
51
No doubt, I was just about to flood the streets
52
Big boxes full of tapes with them dopefiend beats
53
Two white boy rookies, mad as hell
54
Black man makin mail, couldn't take him to jail
55
[Chorus]
56
[Too $hort]
57
I spent sixteen hundred makin Born To Mack
58
Used my niggaz gold ropes and his Cadillac
59
I was broke and starvin, didn't give a fuck
60
Couldn't tell me Short Dawg wasn't comin up
61
When motherfuckers roll by bumpin your stuff
62
It makes you feel good, like when you bust a nut
63
Now I'm a millionaire, and can't get enough
64
Forty tell em how it is (way too tough Short Dawg)
65
[E-40]
66
When I first started rappin motherfuckers would cap!
67
"That nigga fake he sound like Woody Pecker on crack (ha ha ha HA ha)"
68
Niggaz would laugh and say I rap too fast way back then
69
But now I be catchin all kind of motherfuckers
70
tryin to sneak my little old style in
71
And that's a compliment, cause I ain't trippin on the money
72
(what about the money what about the money)
73
Ask me, sheeit, I think there's enough money up in this bitch
74
for all of us, we can Sasquatch pimp the system without a doubt
75
All we gotta be is bout our paper route
76
[Chorus]
77
[E-40]
78
That's real, Too Sheezee, Ant Banks, Forty Fonzarelli
79
K-Ci and my nigga JoJo we all come from the ground up
80
BEAOOOTTCH!
81
[K-Ci and JoJo - repeat 2X]
82
Right from the bottom to the top
83
From the ground up we never stop
84
Right from the bottom to the top
85
We never stop
86
[ad libs]
87
Never stop, no we will never stop baby
88
We will never stop, we will, we will never stop
89
We will never stop!
90
From the ground up, from the ground up
91

92
From the grouuuuund up, from the ground up
93
From the bottom to the top baby
94
Baby baby baby baby...
