Peace, love, enemies
Nigga I ain't come for the beef
You ain't know she came for the skeet?
Got pipe for the cheeks

B-bounce for the crown
You be hating and I still hold it down
When you round man the girls never lounge
Man I heard you a hound
Bruh man, that bitch need a pound
Tip, tip, tip bounce out her gown
Hands high to the sound
Uh yeah I'm the rich nigga now
Bi-bitch, I'm the talk of the town

Smoke something for ya nerve
Home of the paid on the first
Then nigga going broke by the third
Bounce for the crown
Fast forward getting real tell me now
Every dog need a cat to meow
Every once in a while
I see hands in the crowds
See whites, blacks blazing a pound, ju-jumping around
Tits, ass bump out her gown
B-b-b-bounce from the ground
High for the sound
This verse straight from the morgue
Pop, pop, pop down from the floor
Bounce (bounce)

@STarCRAFT4BRITS

whoever produced this beat is a fucking artistic genius

@SI-cd7xs

Frank Zappa The song is built around a sample. Don't see what's genius about that.

@urgothfather5568

Frank Zappa They sampled "Cherry" by Chromatics

@STarCRAFT4BRITS

All the minds that went into this final product
are included into this statement. Someone had to have an ear to realize it would make an amazing hip hop sample

@josephenders1893

***** samples can often be harder to find and use well and some of the greatest producers, like J Dilla, frequently used them.

@PhantomProduktionz

***** What's wrong with samples?
