Song: Hustler’s Ambition / Album: Get Rich or Die Tryin’ / Released: 2005
“I want the finer things in my life / So I hustle (hustle)
N***a, you get in my way while I’m trying to get mine / And I’ll buck you (buck you)
I don’t care who you run with, or where you from / N***a, f**k you (f**k you)
I want the finer things in my life / So I hustle (hustle)”
Song: I Get Money / Album: Curtis / Released: 2007
“I took quarter water sold it in bottles for 2 bucks / Coca-Cola came and bought it for billions, what the f***?
Have a baby by me baby, be a millionaire /I write the check before the baby comes, who the f*** cares?”

“Seventy Three Caprice old school when I roll / Breeze pass with the E-Pass, fuck the toll
No more platinum, I’m wearing gold / I’m internationally known, it’s the kid with the flow
That brings enough dough, it’s never enough though”
