Just Paul Wall [Screwed & Chopped]
SwishaHouse remix
Paul Wall, I'm the people's champ
It ain't easy being the people's champ
It's the new me, new me, true me, true me
I got a lot of struggles I done been through, I'm still going through
Paul Wall, Paul Wall, baby, let me show you what it's like to be me
I'm not your average guy, I'm more than meets the eye
I know I'm friendly and fly, but let me tell you why
I was abandoned at an early age, my daddy was a dope fiend
I ain't seen him since the second grade
I sing the same song, deadbeat dad, single mom
When I was in the crowd getting still I was alone
I kept my faith in God even in my younger days
I kept my faith in God even in my younger days
I kept my faith in God even in my younger days
I gave my life to Christ, got down on my knees and prayed
And God answered our prayers, and mama we met
All the burdens she carried, I must admit that it was scary
So now I got a real man as my father figure
Things started getting better for my mama and my sister
Pain took me from a boy to a man
I knew I'd make it to the end if I could stick to the plan
People judge me off my music, but they never even met me
But I'd introduce myself if you let me (Paul Wall, baby)
See, I've been doing this here for a while
Eventually y'all boys gon' respect me, dog, Paul, Paul Wall
Until it's over I'ma ball 'til I fall
I'm the realest in a minute, y'all
Let me tell you new me, new me, true me, true me
Not the glamor and glitz that y'all do see
I'm just a regular G, I gotta do me
I'm 'bout to introduce y'all boys to the new me, come on
It's more to me than all this glamor and glitz
I spent my whole life broke, I'm just trying to get rich
I kept it real all my life, I never stepped on toes
But somehow my friends keep turning into my foes
My ex keep calling me, but I don't wanna talk to her
So then she call the laws on me like I'm the one stalking her
My new girl say I don't love her enough
But all the hating friends jealous cause I love her too much
But all the hating friends jealous cause I love her too much
But all the hating friends jealous cause I love her too much
I'm drinking bottles of Patron, trying to drink away my troubles
But being an alcoholic only makes things double
People judge me off my music, but they never even met me
But I'd introduce myself if you let me (Paul Wall, baby)
See, I've been doing this here for a while
Eventually y'all boys gon' respect me, dog, Paul, Paul Wall
Until it's over I'ma ball 'til I fall
I'm the realest in a minute, y'all
Let me tell you new me, new me, true me, true me
Not the glamor and glitz that y'all do see
I'm just a regular G, I gotta do me
I'm 'bout to introduce y'all boys to the new me, come on
You think you know me, mayne, but you don't know me, mayne
Just because you shake my hand don't mean that you my homie, mayne
It's people praying on my downfall
And I can't understand why, cause I show love to all of y'all
People are grateful for the favors you show 'em
But when they need you for another one they still act like you owe 'em
Everybody be taking credit for something they ain't do
But you need to quit reaching and stand on your own two
I always stayed humble, I never once changed
I never got an ego or a big head cause of fame
People judge me off my music, but they never even met me
But I'd introduce myself if you let me (Paul Wall, baby)
See, I've been doing this here for a while
Eventually y'all boys gon' respect me, dog, Paul, Paul Wall
Until it's over I'ma ball 'til I fall
I'm the realest in a minute, y'all
Let me tell you new me, new me, true me, true me
Not the glamor and glitz that y'all do see
I'm just a regular G, I gotta do me
I'm 'bout to introduce y'all boys to the new me, come on
I'm Paul Wall, I'm the people's champ
But it ain't easy being me
I done put in my fair share of work
Bled, sweat, and tears
I'm a real one
Been passing out flyers in the club
Doing freestyles that don't go on mixtapes
I ain't understand it then, but now I understand it
It's a bigger picture than just what you're thinking
You gotta think outside the box if you're trying to make it
It's chess moves, not checkers, baby
