Lyrics

Yo I got some of that
Give me some of that
Yo Hank what up man
Why don't you come over here
Yo Hank what up
Come over here for a minute
Yo fuckin' drop it
Dying for that money
Ayo fuck
Hey word to 2Max
Money is meaningless
Check it out
Now this is not a situation I condone
Maps of the bank posted up in Hank's home
Nothing's written out it's all in Hank's dome
And this is the bank that gave Hank a loan
Became friends with staff plenty years past
Always brings checks never brings cash
For his deposit counterfeits out the closet
So ready even has an altered face composite
Woke up it's a good day for a withdraw
Prepares all day he moves at nightfall
Years ago put a micro camera in the hall
Got the security code keys and all
He hit the spot didn't get caught
Tip-toed his way over to the vault
Cracking the safe he was extra nice
Respected Gene Hackman's role on The Heist
He cracked the safe door fairly wide
He's already white but now he's whiter than rice
It was an empty vault to his surprise
There was no kind of money in front of his eyes
He felt cheated defeated
The next day paper he didn't wanna read it
But he did did did did did did did did did
Last night a break-in at the bank
Where approximately 250 thousand in cash was taken
Investigators are now ruling inside job
Being it was such a clean hit
The robbers used security codes and keys
To enter both the vault and the front door
A professional scene by all means says Officer Barney
I just don't get it man
Someone must have been watching me
Man step by step man
It just doesn't make sense
Hank folded the paper up put it under his arm
Went to his apartment and noticed the alarm
Had been wired the entry was clean
On his couch sat a man who he couldn't quite see
"Hank it would be good for you to take a seat
I'm here to propose an offer that you can't beat
See we've been watching you Hank
Which is why we beat you to the money at the bank
We'll quadruple that 250 plus
Don't be a thief the government they work for us"
Hank asked the man for his name
He replied "Never mind that this is why I came
Listen we're here to wipe out the Miz don't trip
Everyone gets a kickback who goes along with it
But you're the missing piece to this sketch Hank
The head person that they'll have to catch Hank
You'll go down in our storybooks
As a genius not a crook shifty with dignity"
"The offer is interesting I'm afraid I'ma do my own thing" said Hank
Before the man voices complaint
Atmosphere turned blank Hank slit his throat with a shank
Put on the composite and broke out
Took his dagger but left the croak out
Hank knew he was being scoped out
Since they were so blunt they got smoked out
Now Hank's on his escape
To get to his property he has to cross three states
They're halfway and what's the most bizarre thing
Hank gets pulled over by Officer Barney
