im a thug
Trick Daddy Lyrics

I don't know
What this world's gonna bring
But I know one thing

Could it be my baggy jeans or my gold teeth
That make me different from ya'll
Ain't trippin', dog, but listen, dog
I was raised a little different, dog
Just doin' my thang, usin' my ghetto slang
And I represent thug shit
Niggas who I roll with, watch them niggas they gon' love this (they gon' love this)
Niggas who out on bond, on the run and got ten years on parole
Since you can't say it dog, I'ma say it for y'all
Motherfuck the po-pos (uh-huh)
Fuck the judge and CEOs, fuck the DA and POs
Fuck the family of the victim, witness
And snitchin' ass hoes, nigga

I don't know
What this world's gonna bring
But I know one thing
That this is the life for me
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
All day, every day
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
Wouldn't change for the world
Uh-uh, 'cause I'm a thug
That's right you heard
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
Uh-huh, oh yeah, check it out

See I'm so tight, niggas be like
That nigga got so many hoes (uh-huh)
And I know he got clout, look at his mouth
That nigga got so many golds
Niggas be tellin' they hoes
To set 'em up with that nigga
Bitch, I've been watchin' you watchin' him
You must want to fuck this nigga (that's right)
My name alone been known to break up happy homes (uh-huh)
No disrespect, dog
But you ain't had no business even answerin' her phone (hello? Who is this?)
If your ass was home then me and her could've been gettin' it on (hold on)
And you couldn't have been hittin' her right
'Cause ever since the night she been hittin' the phone
She want a thug

I don't know
What this world's gonna bring
But I know one thing
That this is the life for me
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
All day, every day
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
Wouldn't change for the world
Uh-uh, 'cause I'm a thug
That's right you heard
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
Uh-huh, oh yeah, check it out

Since y'all niggas want to smoke the blunts, tote guns
I'ma show you how to thug it, dog
Just give me half a pill and some Zinfandel
And I'm like, "Fuck it, dog"
As long as my ecstasy got the best of me (ecstasy)
And none of you niggas ain't stressin' me
I got one request in this bitch
And you can have the rest of this shit
If a nigga drop some shit, it's whack as hell
And don't make no damn sense
Take it back, talk about it and tell your dog don't even buy that shit
And I don't care who he is or where he from
I represent thug shit
And you ain't gotta give me my props or nominate me
'Cause, damn it, I love this

I don't know
What this world's gonna bring
But I know one thing
That this is the life for me
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
All day, every day
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
Wouldn't change for the world
Uh-uh, 'cause I'm a thug
That's right you heard
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
Uh-huh, oh yeah, check it out

I don't know
What this world's gonna bring
But I know one thing
That this is the life for me
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
All day, every day
Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
Wouldn't change for the world
Uh-uh, 'cause I'm a thug
That's right you heard

Baby, 'cause I'm a thug
Uh-huh, oh yeah, check it out

In "I'm a Thug," Trick Daddy portrays a life of a thug as something that he loves and cherishes. He acknowledges that he doesn't know what the future holds but that his life as a thug is worth it. He emphasizes his identity as a thug and wouldn't change anything for the world. Through his lyrics, he highlights the characteristics that make him a thug, including his baggy jeans, gold teeth, and using ghetto slang. He further affirms his status as a thug by explicitly mentioning that he represents thug sh*** along with the people he rolls with. However, he also expresses his disdain for the law, cursing the police, judges, and parole officers.

I don't know What this world's gonna bring But I know one thing That this is the life for me
Uncertainty may be ahead, but I'm confident this thug lifestyle is for me.

Baby, ‘cause I'm a thug All day, every day Baby, ‘cause I'm a thug Wouldn't change for the world
I'm a thug through and through, and I wouldn't change that for anyone or anything.

Uh-uh, ‘cause I'm a thug That's right you heard Baby, ‘cause I'm a thug Uh-huh, oh, yeah, check it out
I'm a thug, and I want everyone to know it. It's just who I am.

Could it be my baggy jeans or my gold teeth That make me different from ya'll Ain't trippin', dog, but listen, dog I was raised a little different, dog Just doin' my thang usin' my ghetto slang And I represent thug s*** This who I roll with, watch them n****s that don't love this N****s who out on bond, on the run and got 10 years on parole Since you can't say it dog, I'mma say it for y'all Motherf*** the po-pos F*** the judge and CEOs, f*** the DA and POs F*** the family of the victim Witness that snitchin' a*** h**s, n****
I might look different with my baggy clothes and flashy jewelry, but it's not about that. I come from different circumstances and I'm just living my life with my own language and representing what I believe in - thug culture. I hang with people who understand me and don't judge me for it. And yeah, I'm not afraid to say that I have strong opinions about authority figures and people who snitch.

See I'm so tight, n****s be like That n**** got so many h**s And I know he got clout, kook at his mouth That n**** got so many golds N****s be tellin' they h**s To set ‘em up with that n**** B****, I've been watchin' you watchin' him You must want to f*** this n**** My name alone been known to break up happy homes No disrespect, dog, but you ain't had no business even answerin' her phone If your a** was home Then me and her, kid, been gettin' it on And you couldn't have been hittin' her right ‘Cause ever since the night she been hittin' the phones She want a thug
People recognize that I'm a thug and see me as some kind of player. It doesn't matter how many women or how much jewelry I have, it's all about what I represent. I don't even have to try hard to get women - they come to me. But if you try to get involved, watch out, because I have a reputation for breaking up relationships. And if someone else has been messing around with my girl, then they obviously weren't satisfying her - but I did as a thug.

Since y'all n****s want to smoke the blunts, tote the guns I'mma show you how to thug it, dog Give me half a pill and some Zinfandel, and I'm like, “F*** it, dog” As long as my ecstasy got the best of me And none of you n****s ain't stressin' me I got one request in this b**** You can have the rest of this s*** If a n**** drop some s***, it's whack as hell And don't make no damn sense Take it back, talk about it and tell your dog don't even buy that s*** And I don't care who he is or where he from I represent thug s*** And you ain't gotta give me my props or nominate me ‘Cause damn it I love this
I'm here to teach you how to be a real thug, with all the drug use and partying that comes with it. As long as I'm high, nothing else matters and no one can stress me out. But there are certain standards I hold myself to - if someone drops a bad track, I'm going to call them out on it and tell everyone not to buy it. I don't even need recognition for my thug life, because I love it so much.
