Got To Get It Lyrics


Gotta get it
Gotta get it
I gotta get it, I gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
But you gotta get it, but you gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
I gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
Gotta, gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
I'm on the road to success, I strive to be the best
I never settle for less, if I'm broke I can't rest
A hustler in the flesh and I'm smokin' on the best
'Cause I deal with lots of stress, out here on this paper quest
I'm makin' progress and I'm blessed, oh yes
And I'ma get it to my last dyin' breath, then it's in peace I rest
I'm workin' with that bread like a chef when he cook
Now I'm back to flippin' paper like I'm readin' a book

Stayin' real with your partners, that's a real good look
But when your cash stash low all your boys get shook
I been searchin' for that paper like it's Natalie Holloway
Eight days a week plus I grind on holidays
There ain't no excuse for these boys to be broke
I know some hustlers in wheel chairs, we get it 'til we crock
From south po, to south postal, I gotta stack them C notes
So listen up close, say I gotta get it
I gotta get it, I gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
But you gotta get it, but you gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
I gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
Gotta, gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
I gotta get them dollar signs, all of every kind
Partner, I need mine even them nickels and them dimes
I'm out on the grind, stayin' every lick I find
Goin' get it myself, there ain't no time to try and stand in line
I never fall behind, and yeah, I'm full of that purple slim
But I ain't dead yet, I'm just fine
I'm still in my prime, so I pack at least a nine
'Cause these haters tryin' to block my shine
Like mini blinds, I gotta get it
Long as opportunity knock, I'ma get that gwop
And give it all that I got until my coffin drop
The sun rise I'm the first hustler on the block
And when the sun set, I'm still out here on the clock
I'm tryin' to hustle for them tickets like a traffic cop
I gotta hustle and get it partner, I never stop
I take that paper real serious like Dwight shoot
Stackin' up loot all around the sixteen route
I gotta get it, I gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
But you gotta get it, but you gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
I gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
Gotta, gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
I know the world in a recession, but I'm still progressin'
Take heed to my confession, never fall to oppression
I learn from life's lesson if you keep on pressin'
You'll eventually end up on top like salad dressin'
I'm never second guessin' like bye, bye faith
And however long the race gotta maintain pace
When the haters fall to waist, then my God grant grace
No matter what odds I face, I'ma be in first place
They hustle and the haste to feed expensive taste
But me I got grind out there on that paper chase
They turn they back on clements but I'm still gon' ride
Too many fish up in the water tryin' to float with the tide
No matter how high the gas price I'm still gon' drive
Quit cryin' and complainin' partner, swallow your pride
While you blamin' everybody for your same bad luck
I'ma be on the come up, sun down to sun up, I gotta get it
I gotta get it, I gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
But you gotta get it, but you gotta grind
I'ma put it down, gotta get mine
I gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine
Gotta, gotta get mine, gotta, gotta get mine
I'ma put it down, I gotta get mine

Paul Wall (born Paul Slayton on March 30, 1980) is an American rapper, DJ, and promoter from Houston, Texas. Notable as one of the few successful white Southern rappers, Slayton is affiliated with Swishahouse Records, formerly Swisha Blast Records. Slayton is a graduate of Jersey Village High School and studied mass communications at the University of Houston for three years. Paul Wall was originally one-half of Houston power duo The Color Changing Click, alongside long-time partner (and now estranged acquaintance) Chamillionaire.

Wall's first music industry exposure came as a street team member on the Northwest side of Houston, promoting southern artists such as T.I. and labels like Cash Money and The New No Limit. He is also an accomplished and proficient mixtape and party DJ, known for producing mixtapes in the now-well-known screwed & chopped style, which was invented by the late DJ Screw. While he has recently stated on record that South LE. (in Houston's southside) is his base of operations, it is not the neighborhood that Paul Wall is actually from. Paul Wall has claimed several such neighborhoods over his career, starting with De Soto in Acres Homes (his original home neighborhood), then switching to Gulf Bank (also in Acres Homes).

Paul Wall, Chamillionaire and Jon Higgins were originally affiliated with Swishahouse Records, but left for Paid in Full Records a short time later. After several mixtape and independent releases, including the critically acclaimed Get Ya Mind Correct, the two parted ways on bad terms. Chamillionaire continued to release independent records, while Paul Wall returned to the Swishahouse fold. This move allowed him to appear on Mike Jones' first commercially distributed single, "Still Tippin'", from his first major label album Who Is Mike Jones?.

His major label debut, The People's Champ, has produced a lead single, "Sittin' Sidewayz", which is receiving national radio and television play. In August, 2005, rumors began to circulate that Paul Wall and Chamillionaire had settled any differences that remained between them, and are again on good terms with one another. Paul Wall also appeared with GLC on the song Drive Slow on Kanye West's second solo album, Late Registration.

Paul Wall is the owner and proprietor of TV Jewelry in Houston. The store specializes in the production of grills, silver, gold, or platinum caps and diamond inlays (usually princess-cut diamonds). Grills have become a growing trend in rap culture and have even influenced its own song. "Grillz", by Nelly ft. Paul Wall along with other artists, where at one point Paul raps "Call me George Foreman 'cause I'm sellin' everybody grillz.)
