Git Up, Git Out - Outkast
Artist: Outkast
Ni**a you need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't spend all your time tryin' to get high
You need git up git out and git somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
'Cuz you and I got to do for you and I
I don't recall ever graduation at all
Sometimes I feel I'm just a disappointment to y'all
Every day I just lay around then I can't be found
Always asked to give me some livin' life like a bum
Times is rough my auntie got enough problems of her own
Ni**a you supposed to be grown
I agree I try to be the man I'm 'posed to be
But negativity is all you seem to ever see
I admit I've done some dumb sh*t
And I'm probably gon' do some mo'
You shouldn't hold that against me though
(Why not )
My music's all that I got
But some time must be ingested for this to be manifested
I know you know but I'm gon' say this to you I
Get high but I don't get too high so what's the limit 'posed to be
That must be why you can't get your a** up out the bed before three
You need to git up git out cut that b******t out
Ain't you sick and tired of having to do without
And what up with all these questions
You act as though you know somethin' I don't
Do you have any suggestions
'Cuz every job I get is cruel and demeanin'
Sick of takin' trash out and toilet bowl cleanin'
But I'm also sick and tired of strugglin'
I never ever thought I'd have resort to drug smugglin'
Naw that ain't what I'm about
Cee-lo will just continue travelin' this route without any doubt or fear
I know the Lord ain't brought me this far so he could drop me off here
Did I make myself clear
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't spend all your time tryin' to get high
Ni**a you need git up git out and git somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
'Cuz you and I got to do for you and I
Well uh git up stand up so what's said you dick head
See when I was a youngsta used to wear them f**kin' Pro Keds
My mama made me do it but the devil he made me smart
Told me to jack them weak a** niggaz for they f**kin' starters
In the middle school I was a bigger fool
I wore with tank tops to show off my tattoo thought I was cool
I used to hang out with my daddy's brothers I call them my uncles
They taught me how to smoke herb
I followed them when they ran numbers
So in a sense I was Rosemary's baby
And then I learned the difference between a b**ch and a lady
Hell I treat 'em all like hoes see I pimped 'em
B**ch never had my money so I never whipped 'em
See all the playas came and all the playas went
A playa ain't a gangsta but a playa can handle his sh*t b**ch
You need to git up git out git somethin'
Smoke out 'cuz it's all about money money money
Yeah I said it a ni**a sportin plats and a Braves hat
I hang with Rico Wade 'cuz the Dungeon is where the funk's at boy
I'm true to Organized 'cuz they raised me
I'm also down with La Face 'cuz L A Reid yeah he pays me
And it's cool yeah it's real cool gettin' paid fat pockets
And all that other fat sh*t like that ha-ha
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't spend all your time tryin' to get high
Ni**a you need git up git out and git somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
'Cuz you and I got to do for you and I
A lot of people in my past tried to do me screw me
Throw me over in the fire let me get chunky and charred
Like a piece of wood and dem spirits got the mutant's mind
I'm gettin' paranoid and steady lookin' for the time
It's eight in the mornin' and ain't nobody up yet
I got my long johns get my coat and throw on my ball cap
I'm headed out the door to get off in my ride
I'm diggin' through the ash tray hopin' to have a good day
I had Jamaica's best and when I light it up I hear a voice in my head
(You got to git up git out and git somethin')
Now I know it's on my day is finally started
Back up in my crib eat my sh*t break out quick in my slick
'84 Se-Dan DeVille steady bouncin'
Out the Pointe to Cambelton Road
The valley of the South side flow
Everybody know about that killa that we call blow
So keep your eyes peeled for the 'cover unit
'Cause they known for jumpin' out of black Chevy trucks
And through the fog here come the Red Dogs
I'm bustin' out around the corner in my hog
Dippin' from the area I'm scared
So one of these b**ches might wind up dead
'Cuz I have no time for jail f**k Clampett cops f**k Elgin' Bail
And crooked a** Jackson got the whole country
Thinkin' that my city is the big lick for 96
94 Big Gipp Goodie Mo Outkast a vision from the past
Hootie hoo my white owls are burnin' kinda slow
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't spend all your time tryin' to get high
Ni**a you need git up git out and git somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
'Cuz you and I got to do for you and I
Y'all tellin' me that I need to get out and vote huh why
Ain't nobody black runnin' but crackers so why I got to register
I thinkin' of better sh*t to do with my time
Never smelled aroma of diploma but I write the deep a** rhymes
So let me take ya way back to
When a ni**a stayed in Southwest Atlanta
Y'all could not tell me nuthin' thought I hit that bottom rock
At age 13 start workin' at the loadin' dock
They layin' my mama off of work General Motors trippin'
But I come home Bank like Hank from lickin' and dippin'
Doin' dumb sh*t not knowin' what a ni**a know now
Yeah that petty sh*t will have you cased up and locked down
I dips over to East Point still actin' a fool
Wastin' my time in the school I'd rather be shootin' pool
Cool is how I played the tenth grade
I thought it was all about mackin' hoes and wearin' pimp fade
Instead of bein' in a class I'd rather be up in some a**
Not thinkin' about them six courses that I need to pass
Graduation rolled around like rolly-pollies
Damn that's f**ked up I shoulda listened when my mama told me
That if you play now you gonna suffer later
Figured she was talkin' yin-yang so I payed her no attention
And kept missin' the point she tried to poke me with
The doper that I get the more I'm feelin' broke and sh*t
Huh but that don't matter though I am an OUT-Kast
So get up off your a**
Ni**a you need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't let the days of your life pass by
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
Don't spend all your time tryin' to get high
You need git up git out and git somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try
You need to git up git out and git somethin'
'Cuz you and I got to do for you and I
You need to you need to you need to
