[Verse 1 - Andre]
1 for the money, yes sir, 2 for the show
A couple of years ago on Headland and Delowe
Was the start of something good
Where me and my nigga rode the MARTA through the hood
Just trying to find that hookup
Now everyday we look up at the ceiling
Watching ceiling fans go round, trying to catch that feeling
Off instrumentals, had my pencil and plus my paper
We caught the 86 Lithonia headed to Decatur
Writing rhymes, trying to find our spot off in that light
Light off in that spot, knowing that we could rock
Doing the hole in the wall clubs - this shit here must stop
Like "freeze!" We makin' the crowd move but we not makin' no G's
And that's a no-no

[Verse 2 - Big Boi]
Check it
A 1 2, a one two dope niggas
In the Cadillac" they call us, went from Player's Ball to ballers
Putting the South up on the map was like Little Rock to bangin
Niggas say motherfuck that playin, they payin
We stay in, laying vocals, locals done made it with them big boys
Up in this industry, "Outkast, yea them niggas they makin big noise"
Over a million sold to this day, niggas they take it lightly
'96 gonna be that year that all y'all player-haters can bite me

[Hook]
Me and you, your momma and your cousin too
Rolling down the strip on vogues
Coming up, slamming Cadillac doors

[Verse 3 - Big Boi]
Back in the day, when I was younger, hunger
Lookin' to fill me belly with that Rally's bullshit, pull shit
Off like it was supposed to be pulled
Full as a tick I was stoned like them white boys
Smokin' them white golds before them blunts, got crunk, chunky asses
Passes gettin' thrown like Hail Marys and they lookin' like Halle Berries
So so fine, intertwined, but we ain't sippin' wine
We's just chillin, I'm the rabid villain...and I'm so high
Smokin freely, me Lil B, Reek, Mone and Shug
And my little brother James, thangs changed in the hood
Where I live at, them rats know, "Mama I want to sing, but
Mama I want to trick, and Mama I'm sucking dick now"
We moving on up in the world like elevators
Me and the crew, we pimps like 82
Me and you like Tony Toni Tone
Like this, East Point and we gone

[Hook]

[Verse 4 - Andre]
Got stopped at the mall the other day
Heard a call from the other way
That I just came from, some nigga was sayin' something
Talkin' bout "Hey man, you remember me from school?"
"Naw not really", but he kept smiling like a clown
Facial expression lookin' silly
And he kept asking me, "What kind of car you drive? I know you paid
I know y'all got bookoo of hoes from all them songs that y'all done made"
And I replied that I had been going through the same things that he had
True, I've got more fans than the average man
But not enough loot to last me to the end of the week
I live by the beat, like you live check-to-check
If you don't move yo' feet then I don't eat, so we like neck-to-neck
Yes we done come a long way like them slim-ass cigarettes
From Virginia, this ain't gonna stop so we just gonna continue
