Song lyrics

[Intro:]
Yeah, yeah! (It's a wave)
Crime pays, crime pays, (Yeah)
Yeah, yeah!

[Verse 1:]
Crime pays, nigga, crime pays,
Choppin' up this change with cocaine in my microwave,
Made it through my whole month with my lights out, I seen brighter days,
Watch this shit get knee high, boy, you live and you die by this game.
Homeboy just caught HIV, he lived and he died by his ho.
Have we ever hit the same bitch before? Ain't nobody know.
Have we ever hit the same bitch before? Wasn't nobody business,
Niggas be fuckin' these hoes and say, "Fuck insurance and doctor visits!"

[Bridge:]
Fly like the wind, it's time to begin your life.
(Niggas be sellin' dope and say, "Fuck insurance and doctor visits!")
You've got control to start again and do it right.
Look to the sky and you will feel how to live a life that's real,
(That's real)
Truth and perfect harmony, when the spirit is free.
(Yeah, yeah)

[Verse 2:]
Crime pays, nigga, crime pays,
Choppin' up this change with cocaine in my microwave,
Diamonds in my chain, yeah, I slang but I'm still a slave,
Twisted in the system, just a number listed on the page.
Made it through my whole month with my lights out, I seen brighter days,
Watch this shit get knee high, boy, you live and you die by this game,
Bitch, don't touch my body,
'Cause I put your body all off in a body sling,
You ain't gon' hurt nobody,
Go body for body but we the body gang.
The ho that you brought out to Cali,
Boy, she only fuckin' with you 'cause you fuckin' with Kane,
Thought she was boostin' her credit
With niggas like you that just ain't got enough on their name.
Thought I would front you another one,
Niggas like you that just ain't got enough on the book,
Talkin' that shit in the booth but when niggas come shoot at you,
You couldn't do nothin' but look.
My niggas done bust a four nickel on your nigga,
Bust him, now he on a shit bag,
His homie done borrowed a car and he got it shot up,
Now I know that his bitch mad.
He steadily called up my phone and you huffin' and puffin'
'Cause they at your bitch duckin',
And Roccett done went and bought Jeezy a pair of new shoes,
That nigga was dick-suckin', yeah!

[Bridge:]
(Dick suckin' ass nigga)
Fly like the wind, it's time to begin your life.
(That nigga was dick suckin')
You've got control to start again and do it right.
Look to the sky and you will feel how to live a life that's real,
Truth and perfect harmony, when the spirit is free.

[Outro:]
Crime pays, nigga, crime pays,
Yeah, crime pays, nigga, crime pays,
Crime pays, nigga, crime pays.

We champion people!
This station rules the nation with version!
Huh!
