What they gone’ do?
What they gone’ do?
What they gone’ do?
My wrist on ooh (ooh)
My wrist on ooh, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Southside on the track, yeah
Put blindsides on my eyes, young nigga
I can feel the money (I can feel the racks)
I got some young niggas pull on the opps
And they kill for money (they slide they slide)
You ever felt a zombie? (Who?)
Yo’ body gon’ smell like vomit (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I done went bad (bad)
Ever since I got checks I don’t run and get mad
That’s not how I react (react)
But she throwin’ it back, I done threw it right back
I spent 40K flat (flat)
Don’t worry, my nigga, get part of the clip
So I got it right back (right back)
By the way, way that it’s going down, it’s been going up
I can’t hold nothing back, I won’t hold you up
I can’t fit all my pain in this styro’ cup
Always talk to myself ’cause it’s only us
Always deep in my mind, don’t know who to trust
I been rolling ’round town feeling woozy
Tryna ride on my side, I get choosy
I don’t know who is trying to use me
(Hey) Pimpin’ ain’t easy (pimpin’)
Hoppin’ out the ‘Ghini (‘Ghini)
All my wishes came true like a genie (wishes)
All my money comin’ blue when they print it
That nigga Offset (brr-brr)
F*ck you in a sentence (rah, rah, rah, rah)
See you in a minute, I see you in a minute
I see you in a Rolls and it’s rented (rolls)
Nigga tried to try me like I was a gimmick (exposed)
Now I got a number one and they hear me (number one)
You heard that?
I was trappin’ and I had to take a bird bath (yeah)
Guns on me, I was going down the wrong path
I’m humble with the money and I don’t cry (no)
Beat me at the game, I’ma grab it (grab it)
I stock all my pinks in the cabinet (stock stock)
Drippin’ too clean like a napkin (drip-drip-drip)
She was on a bean with her rack out (the bean)
Money to the racks so I lap ’em (woo)
Don’t give ’em a formula, I cap ’em (nah)
I’m from the jungle, I’m a animal (rah)
These bitches ain’t shit, they scandalous (woo)
Knock his head off, I commanded him
I’m from the bando, my daddy had abandoned me (bando)
Mama tried to cover up and bandage me (mama)
I’m the first one to lead the whole legacy (legacy)
Put blindsides on my eyes, young nigga
I can feel the money (I can feel the racks)
I got some young niggas pull on the opps
And they kill for money (they slide they slide)
You ever felt a zombie? (Who?)
Yo’ body gon’ smell like vomit (ooh, ooh, ooh)
They thought I would fail, I conquer (fail)
I swim with the sharks, piranhas (piranha)
You tried to tell, informant (twelve)
I move like a boss, I’m important (boss)
I fuel up the ‘Rari, performance (skrt)
I been left out the streets like an orphan (streets)
I was strong but I wanted to forfeit (strong)
I got famous and rich, now I’m corporate (uh)
By the way, way that it’s going down, it’s been going up
I can’t hold nothing back, I won’t hold you up
I can’t fit all my pain in this styro’ cup
Always talk to myself ’cause it’s only us
Always deep in my mind, don’t know who to trust
I been rolling ’round town feeling woozy
Tryna ride on my side, I get choosy
I don’t know who is trying to use me
Them shooters gone slide and it’s quiet, ain’t nobody here (on God)
I nut on her titties and booty
She cleanin’ up the residue with her lip (straight up)
Every nigga cross me, dawg, on God
I’ma catch him, I don’t care if it’s in ten years (21)
Lost my bruddas to the street, we gon’ slide
Kill some, go home and shed tears (true story)
When it’s time to ride (slide, slide, slide)
Catch me in the 6 with a blicky (blicky)
Nigga took the stand, he a Mickey (mickey)
Niggas get to tellin’ when it’s sticky (sticky)
Can’t believe you niggas tryna diss me (what?)
Show you how fast I’ma get him (on God)
Bet I find his body by three Mississippi (on God)
Richard Mille on me cost half a ticket, dog (half a ticket)
Need to open up a bunny ranch
‘Cause I got all the bitches, dawg (on God)
Why you in the car if you ain’t gon’ shoot?
You another witness, dog (lil’ bitch)
Them big-ass, cheap-ass veneers
Y’all need to see another dentist, dog (straight up)
Been fuckin’ with ‘Set like way back, dog
This shit go way back (way, way back)
Disrespect, we don’t play that
You can get shot in your wave cap (whole lotta shots)
You was in the house playin’ ‘Tendo
I was on the block where the J’s at (on god)
I’ma stand on it if I say that
Say it with your chest when you say that (21, 21)
Nigga, pussy, bitch
Put blindsides on my eyes, young nigga
I can feel the money (I can feel the racks)
I got some young niggas pull on the opps
And they kill for money (they slide they slide)
You ever felt a zombie? (Who?)
Yo’ body gon’ smell like vomit (ooh, ooh, ooh)
They thought I would fail, I conquer (fail)
I swim with the sharks, piranhas (piranha)
You tried to tell, informant (twelve)
I move like a boss, I’m important (boss)
I fuel up the ‘Rari, performance (skrt)
I been left out the streets like an orphan (streets)
I was strong but I wanted to forfeit (strong)
I got famous and rich, now I’m corporate (uh)
