They found weed in my system, I told my girl I was quittin' They sent me back to San Quentin for 90 days, did my time and got out Now I'm in the unemployment line, tryin' to figure shit out But the penal system got me by the necks, aha With my troubled past, I can't even get me a job My partner rap, he got his own record label, they doin' they thing If I holler at him, maybe he can shoot me some change Plus, I'm a loyal nigga, man, I learn quick, bro, I ain't stupid All you gotta do is show me one time and I can do it My fellow put a hustler under his wing, showed me the game Now I'm doing my thang [Chorus: T-Pain] Hey, don't underestimate me A couple of days is all it's gon' take me 'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin' Don't underestimate me A couple of days is all it's gon' take me 'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin' [Verse 3: E-40] I'm tryna stay out of trouble and triple, double, quadruple This little change that I got by throwing a few concerts But I'm not too sure if I'm ready to spend this mill' The reason why is rap shows don't always go that well (Uh) And the chances are that I probably won't recoup So I'ma take this loot and book some old-school R&B soul groups That way the venue insurance won't be that high And plus, I'm minimizing the chances of somebody dying, that's right I got a homie that work at the toll bridge He make good money, plus he get benefits He been hollerin' at me never-the-lessin' Tryna get a nigga a job there, which is a blessin' (Uh) But I don't think the homie really understand I'm an entrepreneur, man, I ain't workin' for no white man Attitude of a hood boy All my life I been running from the Elroys, I'm serious [Chorus: T-Pain] Hey, don't underestimate me A couple of days is all it's gon' take me 'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin' Don't underestimate me A couple of days is all it's gon' take me 'Cause I'm so serious, it go like that I drop it off and it come right back, I get it in the mornin'
