State
BGourd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I know the life i lead
baby i proceed
i take up all the fees
maybe im a fiend
anti histamine
drugs i take they all free
up til recently could open up a pharmacy
they wanna be me
ive seen the enemy
sales lookin all teeny tiny bit of energy
finna get the oolong tea
coup de toa i aint cee lo green
baby i am lean get me a cup
mark cuban with the start up
sheikh haikal should've blown up
i am the unicorn with a small dick but big horns
never scorn might get into a scuffle
but he super chill you might get a better deal
relics all real vaping til i get a label
might shake up all the people
in the north east love the yeast there
my bread better when it gluten thick
mind's empty like the dumb and dumber flick
state to state in my brain
i aint immune to no pain
i take it like a man
i might shave off my mane
ride around in this lane
i won't be snitchin no name
take it like a woman
they are the only reason
tide to tide in the crane
i aint belivin in fame
take it like a gourd
i wanna light up in flames

imma light a cigarrette now
my mama pay rent
i build a big tent
i fry my chicken wet
i read the books low
i flip the pages all high
i'm taking pictures with my eyes
i see the memories in mind
i go online
to see muay thai
check the box score
looking real fine
i got the belt up on my neck see it real down low on my waist
keep it calm no similes on my name
all family to my name




I'm in the mood
in the mood
