[Intro: Chamillionaire] They only love ya when ya on They only love ya when ya on The only other time is when you're gone They only love ya when ya on What goes up come do-ow-own
[Verse 1: Chamillionaire] Welcome to 2011 where everybody's the realest Everyone who a midget, say they do it the biggest Every part of ya business is everybody business Got my name all in your mouth I should have been a dentist Yeah, everybody done did it Everybody's a critic I'm like "Whatchu talkin' bout" like everybody's a Willis Man, they say they love you when the block on smash Since they so in love, tell 'em they can kiss my cash Wait a minute you don't like me, Well I don't like you These fakers sayin' that they real but I see right through The old me, that was the realest person I knew The new me probably the realest person times two
[Chorus: Chamillionaire] So when you feels like it's everybody for themselves And the place where ya living is'nt far from hell And they keep tellin' you "you were born to fail" And everybody say they real but it's too hard to tell So until I die, I'mma always grind I'mma be ok, I'mma be alright If they say I fail, that would be a lie But there ain't no such thing as a tie They only love ya when ya on
[Chorus: Chamillionaire] So when you feels like it's everybody for themselves And the place where ya living is'nt far from hell And they keep tellin' you "you were born to fail" And everybody say they real but it's too hard to tell So until I die, I'mma always grind I'mma be ok, I'mma be alright If they say I fail, that would be a lie But there ain't no such thing as a tie They only love ya when ya on
[Bridge: Chamillionaire] Northside where ya at Northside let me know you got my back
They only love ya when ya on
Southside where ya at Southside, let me know you got my back Yeah Eastside where ya at Eastside my nigga you got my back
They only love ya when ya on Westside where ya at Westside let me know you got my back
[Verse 3: Nipsey Hussle] Look, I'm a get money nigga, on a daily basis Road to the riches, potholes in the pavements Thats why I follow every rule and regulation Making rap money off this game I've been laced with Uh, and you can blame it on black sam Blame it on Crenshaw and Slauson Ave Fly wit' bad bitch with a fat ass Bail money, big pistol and black mag That's how we play it, we living with the fast cash To all my haters, consider this the last laugh I've been the greatest in my city, now I'm past that It's all money ASCAP, broke bitches bag back Please, Louie notes, Louis back packs First class seats like a pillow top mattress Uh, we can't take it to the casket so I'mma spend these rags Just to laugh at your reaction
[Chorus: Chamillionaire] So when you feels like it's everybody for themselves And the place where ya living is'nt far from hell And they keep tellin' you "you were born to fail" And everybody say they real but it's too hard to tell So until I die, I'mma always grind I'mma be ok, I'mma be alright If they say I fail, that would be a lie But there ain't no such thing as a tie They only love ya when ya on
[Outro: Chamillionaire] I know, I know-ow-ow-ow They only love ya when ya one I know, I know-ow-ow-ow They only love ya when ya one What goes up, must come down What goes up, comes down What goes up, must come down What goes up, comes do-ow-oown!
