[Z-Ro] 
Bout time, they opened up the do' for Z-Ro 
Cause I've been dropping hits, since ten years ago 
Trying to do it legal, and not slang yayo 
If I can't get it legal, to the corner I go 
I never took pride, in slanging cocaine 
Never could get a job, but needed some mo' change 
C.d.'s wasn't selling, because I had no name 
Nothing but a t-shirt, no piece no chain 
Too many times, I was ready to give up 
Run up in a bank, and say this is a stick-up 
Put my pain on records, and record sales picked up 
The tears I done shed, led me to the big bucks 
2000 and 4, I ain't broke no mo' 
Cause God is my life jacket, when I sink solo 
I went to a hundred thousand, from a whole fo' 
So all you haters hate me, as I make a little mo' 

[Hook] 
I'm going platinum this time, (this time-this time) 
I think you fellas, better respect my mind (mind-mind) 
I'm here to collect my pennies, my nickels and my dimes (my dimes-my dimes) 
And ain't nobody gonna block out my shine (shine-shine) 

[Z-Ro] 
They got me living in a '56, Mass L 
My locker full of commsary, and my fan mail 
My city saying Z-Ro, what you gon do when you get out of jail 
I can't do no mo' pyrexes, no mo' scales 
Trying to make a million dollas, off my melody 
Couldn't see it coming, so I caught a state-jail felony 
F-1 bunk twelve, there resides the stars 
Special thanks to love, cause "I Hate you Bitch" climbed me to the top of the charts 
Being free, is like being on lock 
Niggaz still kick it with ya, but try to get some of what ya got 
I ain't never seen, so many feminine men 
Swear to God they holding in the world, but ain't nobody seeing dividends 
That ain't the life of me, I had to get it 
Might not be rich in the present, but I'ma be rich in a minute 
Cause I got three 'causeos sitting up high, rolling 24's 
Screaming A.B.N. get in the do', waiting for Ro 

[Hook] 

[Z-Ro] 
Jealousy and envy, play a major role 
Everytime a playa, try to get his pockets swoll 
Somebody said I did this, and said I did that 
Even told homicide, I pushed the homie's wig back 
They don't wanna see, a nigga make it out of poverty 
When will they realize, God is running with me ain't no stopping me 
Probably never will, so keep on trying 
You can clip my wings, but I see happiness in the sky so I'ma keep on flying 
Until I find, a rested place 
So many battle scars, blood on my chest and face 
Whether I'm working or rapping 24/7, me and Satan be scrapping 
He want my soul, but I ain't gon let it happen 
Even if I lose my life, trying to chase my dream 
Whoever do me, gon have hell when they face my team 
I got them same three 'causeos holding me down, if I ain't coming back 
Bet they bury me with g-stacks, plus a platinum plack 

[Hook - 2x]
