Still the only one I do that with
Still the only one I do that with
Ain't that some shit
Still the only one I do that with
Still the only one I do that with
Ain't that some shit

See I've been trippin' and fallin'
No more slippin' and stallin'
Got no numbers I'm callin, just wanna be in the coffin
All this trouble we've been causin'
Benz I'm crossing, I've been saucin'
Exercising my endorphin's since you told me you was walkin'
I've been searchin, huntin, crawlin
Whats it costin me it ain't doing much, saucin me through a loop
I hush the voices in my head for a minute so I can listen to you
And all I ever heard was "I ain't listenin", shit is cripplin'

Still the only one I do that with
Still the only one I do that with
Ain't that some shit
Still the only one I do that with
Still the only one I do that with
Ain't that some shit

Niggas on that word of mouth, 'til they see them boys come out
I ain't ever robbed a nigga, best believe I air ya out
See me in your area, ya'll niggas hilarious
I'm addicted to writing shit that make niggas scared of us

Niggas on that word of mouth, 'til they see them boys come out
I ain't ever robbed a nigga, best believe I air ya out
See me in your area, ya'll niggas hilarious
I'm addicted to writing shit that make niggas scared of us

Niggas on that word of mouth, 'til they see them boys come out
I ain't ever robbed a nigga, best believe I air ya out
See me in your area, ya'll niggas hilarious
I'm addicted to writing shit that make niggas scared of us

Niggas on that word of mouth, 'til they see them boys come out
I ain't ever robbed a nigga, best believe I air ya out
See me in your area, ya'll niggas hilarious
I'm addicted to writing shit that make niggas scared of us

I got rubbers in my pocket, niggas like to gossip
If I need to drop em let me know
'Cos I don't do much talkin', unless it's 'bout the money
If you got an offer let me know
I was sellin' cabbage, until I moved to Cali
Money in a mattress on the floor
Until I messed with niggas, with fingers on the trigger
We was runnin' kickin' in the doors

Niggas on that word of mouth, said they see them boys come out
I ain't ever robbed a nigga, best believe I air ya out
See me in your area, ya'll niggas hilarious
I'm addicted to writing shit that make niggas scared of us

I use protection, my nigga, so fuck direction, my nigga
And fuck yo section, my nigga, I got the rest of my niggas
My niggas rushed on my niggas, my niggas love all they niggas
I fell in love with a nigga, that nigga skipped out the picture

Line by Line Meaning

Still the only one I do that with
I continue to engage in this particular activity with only one person

Ain’t that some shit
Isn’t it surprising that this continues to be the case?

See I’ve been trippin’ and fallin’ No more slippin’ and stallin’ Got no numbers I’m callin, just wanna be in the coffin
I used to make mistakes, but now I’m focused and no longer wasting time on unnecessary calls - I just want to die

All this trouble we’ve been causin’ Benz I’m crossing, I’ve been saucin’ Exercising my endorphin’s since you told me you was walkin’ I’ve been searchin, huntin, crawlin Whats it costin me it ain’t doing much, saucin me through a loop I hush the voices in my head for a minute so I can listen to you And all I ever heard was “I ain’t listenin”, shit is cripplin’
We’ve been causing problems, but I’m still driving my car, taking drugs and finding happiness. I’ve been looking for you, but the search has not been fruitful. I try to quiet my mind to listen to you, but you always refuse to listen, and that hurts me

Niggas on that word of mouth, ’til they see them boys come out I ain’t ever robbed a nigga, best believe I air ya out See me in your area, ya’ll niggas hilarious I’m addicted to writing shit that make niggas scared of us
People talk big until they face the consequences. I won’t rob anyone, but I will defend myself. You guys are funny to me, and I enjoy writing lyrics that intimidate others

I got rubbers in my pocket, niggas like to gossip If I need to drop em let me know ’Cos I don’t do much talkin’, unless it’s ’bout the money If you got an offer let me know I was sellin’ cabbage, until I moved to Cali Money in a mattress on the floor Until I messed with niggas, with fingers on the trigger We was runnin’ kickin’ in the doors
I carry condoms with me and people like to talk behind my back. If you want me to fight someone, I will do it for money. I used to sell drugs, but now I keep my money in my room. I started hanging out with dangerous people and became involved in criminal activity

I use protection, my nigga, so fuck direction, my nigga And fuck yo section, my nigga, I got the rest of my niggas My niggas rushed on my niggas, my niggas love all they niggas I fell in love with a nigga, that nigga skipped out the picture
I am responsible and use condoms, so I don’t care about anything else. I don’t like your group of friends and I have my own. My friends will always support me, and I once loved someone who left my life
