Yo, young Sahob

Sahob responds.

Come here for a minute, let me holla at you right quick

Speaker wants to talk to Sahob briefly.

(Huh? What's up?)

Let me holla at you, my Sahob

Speaker addresses Sahob and wants to talk.

(Okay)

Sahob agrees.

Listen up, man, how you been? You been cool?

Speaker inquires about Sahob's well-being.

(I've been cool, I've been cool)

Sahob confirms being cool.

Alright, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool

Speaker acknowledges Sahob's well-being.

Ayy, so, basically, ayy, um

Speaker introduces a story about a happy hustler and a crappy criminal.

Did I ever tell you the story of the happy hustler and the crappy criminal?

Asking Sahob if he heard the story of the happy hustler and crappy criminal.

(Nah, family, you ain't tell me that, no)

Sahob hasn't heard the story.

Okay, okay, hear, hear me out

Speaker proceeds to share the story.

The crappy criminal was crappy at bein' a criminal and he stayed crappin' out, right?

The happy hustler the one that got in the game and got his money and got out

See what I'm sayin'?

(Rick Rock beats)

Transition to Rick Rock beats.


Underrated, they said that he'll never make it

Speaker asserts his status, confidence, and success in the rap game.

He came on the scene and blew up the spot and obliterated it

-

It's unfortunate they don't educate the youth

-

About pioneers like E-40, the legend, he livin' proof

-

I'm top tier, I got some game for your ear

-

I clean up well with my gear, my heart don't pump any fear

-

Another year and I'm here with a kick-ass career

-

I don't play reindeer games, I'm grown, bitch, do I make myself clear?

-

I'll put your blood on my spear if I'm forced to take it heights

-

Military assault weapon with the bayonet knife

-

I ain't never been outdated, bitch, I always been valid

-

It's impossible to last this long without any talent

-

We went from idolizin' the drug dealer to idolizin' the drug addict

-

Look at my Patek, my diamonds shine like TV static

-

Look how I'm rappin', the style I use is not the average

-

I'm the "what's happenin'," you the "what it's not" and they laughin'

-

(Goop, goop, goop, goop) no more servin' goop (goop)

Chorus: Expressing the desire to move away from dealing drugs (goop).

(Goop, goop, goop, goop) he won't go back to pushin' goop (goop)

-

(Goop, goop, goop, goop) no more servin' goop (goop)

-

(Goop, goop, goop, goop) he sick and tired of pushin' goop (goop)

-

When he was flea flickin', tossin' goop to the class

Describes the challenges and advice related to criminal life.

They didn't fuck off the count, so they built an alliance

-

Then put his guys position and had it down to a science

-

Do your homework before you put in work when it come to violence

-

Gotta be a barbarian, can't be frightened

-

The OG's try to give him advice and a little guidance

-

Some of 'em listen and some look forward to dyin'

-

Some of 'em be bumpin' they gums, not talkin' trident

-

Write out a will before you bust

-

Put your funds in a trust 'cause retaliation is a must

-

Pick out a tombstone and a place where you wanna be in the earth

-

In the V, all the funerals be at Old Path Church

-

You havin' money, buy a crib, not a Royce

-

Take care of your chicken, beast mode voice

-

"Don't spend it all in one day," that's what your plug supposed to say

-

If you're servin' goop, get in and get out and get out the way

-

(Goop, goop, goop, goop) no more servin' goop (goop)

Repeating the chorus, emphasizing the desire to quit dealing drugs.

(Goop, goop, goop, goop) he won't go back to pushin' goop (goop)

-

(Goop, goop, goop, goop) no more servin' goop (goop)

-

(Goop, goop, goop, goop) he sick and tired of pushin' goop (goop)

-

Playa, ayy, ayy, young playa, Sahob, Sahob

Speaker advises Sahob to get a job and avoid a life of crime.

(What's up? What's up, Sahob?)

-

Sahob, what's happenin'? Ayy, look, you still with me?

-

(I'm here)

-

Listen, man, man, get you a job, Sahob

-

(Okay)

-

Man, look, three or four years' worth of timin' and grittin'

-

(Mm-hmm)

-

Ain't worth thirty years of prison, my ninja

-

(I know, I know)

-

It just don't add up

-

(I know, I know)

Sahob acknowledges the advice.
