Strathmoor Payroll Giovanni

[Intro: Tasha Smith]
You was born Pay, and all I remember is bein’ a baby
And the next thing you know, you was flyin’ down the block
In all kinda whips, and rims, and the sounds bangin’, I’m like
When did you switch from the guy ridin’ down the block
With the rims, bangin’, goin’ to high school, to this mega star?
Like when did you transform your regular life to what it came?

[Verse 1: Payroll Giovanni]
(4-1)
Niggas grown doin’ shit we did in high school
Damn, these niggas so behind, movin’ like they froze in time
Niggas lookin’ at they watch, seein’ if it’s froze as mines
Outgrew a lot of shit, a lot of it just come with time
Stuck to my cause, never fucked over dogs
The reward is respect, you can’t buy it with a chеck
I’ma shine harder if we got thе same Patek
It’s the man, not the jewels, it’s the driver, not the coupe
I don’t wanna hear the song if it’s a liar in the booth
Sold crack ‘til I retired from the stoop
Kids admire ‘cause I’m proof, yeah, you can do it too
Same shit they into is what a nigga used to do
Now, I’m far removed, but I’m still with ‘em
If somethin’ fishy, I won’t deal with him
If you can’t trust him, you can’t build him
They curious if we still get ‘em
If you know, you know, if you don’t, you ain’t supposed to know
