I mention it a few times, but I don't go crazy with it. I ain't a coke rapper, na'mean? I wasn't no big drug dealer neither, B. You know what I mean? I made enough to get fly, keep a little stack in the crib... couple of stacks in the crib. But I wasn't crazy with it. So that s**t ain't... I always worked for somebody. I got some other n***a rich.” KnowsMenKindMeanLittlesMadeSometimesEnoughBigsRichCrazyProudCoupleDrugAngelRapperBe ProudCornyDealerCokeDrug Dealers Author:Sean Price
