You can dream on Next year I'm back in the Maybach gettin my lean on Trouble ain't changed me; role model ain't me Don't be angry now if I'm on the same street and make a U-turn Haven't you learned? I'm {"Trouble Man"} [Chorus] [T.I.] Weight on my shoulders, chose to squat with it Real niggaz say I kick it the same way 'Pac did it Tell all them sucka niggaz what the biz is Upset cause they can't do they thang like he did here Shit, another year another bid done No chump change, big bank millions Yuh, my money old but I'm still young Them niggaz lookin for some drama I'ma give 'em some No more beef, a pimp'll say goodbye to red meat But cross a nigga path and you're dead meat Remain on my game time after time '97 college basehead, 99 dime '98 had polices on 285 flyin Skip where you meet K.P. and L.A. Reid, got signed Cut to the present and the rap game mine Some things never change, it remains I'm {"Trouble Man"} [Chorus]
