So Many Ways lyrics

[Intro]
Haha (Tell me), tell me
(What you know?) How you feel about it? Ha (True that)
(Uh-huh) Queen Pen makes it happen
Brooklyn

[Chorus]
So many ways to try and get paid
So many ways to try to make these hazy days slip away
So many yappin' about this and that and
But when you turnin' your back, it be your right hand rattin'
So many chicks behind my back poppin' sh*t
But in all reality, they don't really wanna see me flip
So many ways to try and get paid
So many ways to try to make these hazy days slip away

[Verse 1]
Now why push this glow on this earth?
And runs back and forth on my ghetto turf
Now what's worth hurt? (Uh-huh, nothin') Hurt's worth nothin'
So why put yourself in a sticky situation? No lane's just
Like a shipload full of Haitians (Uh)
Our souls survived and got sacra from the nation
Heartbeats are racin' (Uh-huh), see you not ready for what you facin'
It's these vocal cords that'll definitely break you (Uh-huh)
Take you to another levеl like Blackstreet
Peek the techniquеs, the flocks of mad freaks
Leaks from police had me duckin' from the heat
So why my name always be's the center of attention?
And why after warnings, n*ggas still don't wanna listen?
And why can't I live this life without all the drama?
Insane how perpetrators be all thirsty up for fame
It's the sweetness that draws sugar from the 'caine
And uh, realness that separates me from the lame
So many ways (Uh, ha, haha)
[Chorus]
So many ways to try and get paid
So many ways to try to make these hazy days slip away
So many yappin' about this and that and
But when you turnin' your back, it be your right hand rattin'
So many chicks behind my back poppin' sh*t
But in all reality, they don't really wanna see me flip (Uh-huh)
So many ways to try and get paid
So many ways to try to make these hazy days slip away (Uh)

[Verse 2]
Get down with this realness, notarize this
Seal it with a kiss, makes this a promise (Ha)
I'll explode it, lyrically blowin' at her, what the f*ck?
How you get it all pussied up like wet c*nt? (Woo)
When I comes around, I stays around, stabilizes grounds
Buildin' foundations by the pound
How you feel holdin' this world into your hands?
You're acknowledgeable, always makes a waste of a man
It's me, do you need a flash back of "No Diggity"? (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Feel free to pronounce that freedom of speech
Don't get it twisted, it's still nappy head like your kitchen (What you say?)
Crown Heights, every day, every night, we just listen how I (Uh-huh, uh)
Makes you crave like your appetite
So many hype heads gettin' caught up in the hype, why fight? So many ways
[Chorus]
So many ways to try and get paid
So many ways to try to make these hazy days slip away
So many yappin' about this and that and
But when you turnin' your back, it be your right hand rattin'
So many chicks behind my back poppin' sh*t
But in all reality, they don't really wanna see me flip
So many ways to try and get paid
So many ways to try to make these hazy days slip away

[Verse 3]
Now I bet your bottom dollars to your last copper cent (Uh-huh)
I take the place of that belt and have your black ass bent (Uh-huh, uh-huh, oh yeah, oh yeah, ha)
Watch the heads spin of phony n*ggas with fake grins
In two year careers before they even begin (What you say?)
Be all up in your chest on what? Like floo flim (Ha)
Put the needle to the record in the party, you be him
This the style that we have and you people's all leery (Uh)
Brooklyn chicks always bring the drama, do you hear me? (What? Oh yeah, ha)
I be's certified nationwide with no tires attached (Hold that)
Run lines through your city like a map
pus*y intact, like how I'm guaranteed the fact
By the end of the quarter, hip-hop will be back, so many ways

[Chorus]
So many ways to try and get paid (Ha)
So many ways to try to make these hazy days slip away
So many yappin' about this and that and
But when you turnin' your back, it be your right hand rattin'
So many chicks behind my back poppin' sh*t
But in all reality, they don't really wanna see me flip
So many ways to try and get paid
So many ways to try to make these hazy days slip away
