Devious MC - You Get What You Paid For

I'm living below my means
Don't ask me for a thing
You won't get no play
I'm steadily moving upstream
Hope the wind blows this way
I just need a push
Kindly point me in the right direction
Before I fly by this intersection
The last thing I need is your correction
But I did what I could
Now I'm open to suggestions
They've seen it all done it all slime
But I'm still taking my time
So I think twice
And so you should be nice
Take that road you roll the dice
Hmm
But I won't flex on 'em
Just remind ya'll how you slept on him right?
Stop right there at the light Hmm
You should probably take your own advice
But you get what you pay for
Sometimes hard work don't pay
But you get what you paid for
Don't tell me that you weren't paid
But you get what you pay for
Sometimes hard work don't pay
But you get what you paid for
Just don't tell me you weren't paid
I'm living above my means
Don't tell me it's obscene
Can't a man dream?
One's not enough I need three
You can go and take the backseat
Yeah
You can go and tell the flatfeet
It's not gonna change the backbeat
You ain't gon' get it past me
The end of the line is my street
Uh
Ok save it for a rainy day
But don't tell me what the weatherman say
That's someone who never gets paid
That's someone who digs their own grave
Better yet let it rain on their parade
While I'm sitting on the beach
In the shade
Still they say
Bad weather's headed our way
Plan it all out
Still someone gets paid
But you get what you pay for
Sometimes hard work don't pay
But you get what you paid for
Just don't tell me you weren't paid
