If I Didn't Rap
2 Chainz Lyrics

I'm the shit but know about it
I am highly skilled and successful, but I don't brag about it

Yeah, buy a pint pour a four up out it
Yeah, purchase a pint of liquor and mix it with codeine syrup

Yeah, I could tell you hoes ain't eating
Yeah, I can see that you girls are not successful or well-off

Yeah, 'cause you ain't got no body
Yeah, because you have no influence or power

Back on the block
Going back to the streets

If I ain't have no shows
If I didn't have any concerts

I'll have to re-up on you niggas
I would have to regain my dominance over you

Swipping and swapping a pack, nigga the corner back
Engaging in drug transactions as the cornerback of the corner

I got me four in the back, whip cost me four hundred flat
I have four weapons hidden in the car, the car itself cost me $400,000

I'm getting thrown in that, still got my same clientel
I'm getting money illegally, but I still have the same customers

If I didn't have me no shows, I been done bought me a bail
If I didn't have any concerts, I would have already bought my own bail money

I been done bought me a scale, I'm getting packs in the mail
I have already purchased a weighing scale and I'm receiving drug shipments by mail

And now I got plaques on the wall, I told them like Sam I can sell
And now I have received awards for my success in rap, I told them like Sam Walton (founder of Walmart) that I know how to sell

These bitches just fought with my locks, like I was straight out of Yonkers
These women are jealous and fighting over me, like I was from Yonkers (known for its confrontational reputation)

And I be somewhere in the trap, if I didn't have me a concert
And I would still be involved in illegal activities, if I didn't have any concerts

If I didn't rap I'll still have a Benz
If I didn't pursue a career in rap, I would still own a luxury car

If I didn't rap I'll still have my friends
If I didn't pursue a career in rap, I would still have loyal friends

If I didn't rap I'll go to my amigo
If I didn't pursue a career in rap, I would turn to my friend (likely referring to a drug dealer)

And tell him in ten minutes meet me with with ten
And tell him in ten minutes to meet me with ten (referring to a drug deal)

If I didn't rap I'll be in a trap
If I didn't pursue a career in rap, I would still be involved in illegal activities

If I didn't rap I'll still have me a sack
If I didn't pursue a career in rap, I would still have a supply of drugs

I got me a sack, a nigga don't know how to act
I have a supply of drugs, and I become unpredictable

Came up with hustlers and killas, you can tell when we come in the building
I grew up with ambitious and dangerous individuals, and it's evident when we enter a place

You can smell when we come in the building
You can sense our presence when we enter a place

Give em hell when we come in the building
We cause chaos and disturbance when we enter a place

If I didn't rap I'll still have a bad bitch
If I didn't pursue a career in rap, I would still attract attractive women

And a side bitch don't about her
And I would have a mistress who wouldn't bother me

You the type of nigga try to take her out the strip club
You are the type of person who tries to rescue a stripper from her profession

And try to fuck the hoe up out her
And attempt to have a sexual relationship with her outside of her work

And my partner got four bodies
And my friend has killed four people

And my broad got low mileage
And my girlfriend has had few sexual partners

Ride around with a trunk full of raw
I drive around with a car trunk filled with uncut drugs

Young nigga better know about it
Young man, you better be aware of it

I tell him meet me in back
I instruct him to meet me at the back

Yeah, drug, dealing, class, 101, ungh
Yeah, this is a lesson in the basics of drug dealing
