hate the game

empire cast

when you out here in the cold

you can't trust a soul

gotta play your cards

you can never fold

if you call yourself a man

you gotta hold your ground

make a plan and don't let nobody hold you down

can't be timid in these streets

if you tryna eat

just make sure you got that heat incase they got some beef

i ain't got no time to chill

they gon' get you killed

money on my mind

gotta pay some bills

i'm just ridin' round

ridin' round

ridin' 'round

with that thang

i'm just ridin' round

ridin' round

ridin' 'round

with that thang

with that thang

because a pimp gon' be a pimp

a playa gonna play the game

a pimp gon' be a pimp
