Yeah yeah yeah
937 bitch
Ouu
Fruits of my labor done ripened
Look at me bitch I'm smiling
Niggas only eat when they biting
They paranoia just heightened
Nigga only tough when they typing
Type of shit have me dying
This just family no buy in
No my body not like them
Go go go go go
Nigga I know I'ma goat
So so so so Might fuck around and wear 24
I ain’t gotta flex when it come to this shit cuz the weight put on still light see
Nigga called my phone talking all that static but the shit popped up scam likely
Ouu
I know my truth shit
I'ma recluse shit
I’m from da zoo shit
These vultures flocking are flukes shit
I would assume ya gave em the room
Just to get some cheddar
Nigga I’m bouta ruffle some feathers
This vendetta cut off the head they severed
They ain’t no real go getters
Bitch you bitter
He’ll never amount to me I don’t give a fuck how many times you measure
Apply pressure that’s my pleasure
Another man's trash is another ones treasure
So keep dropping them tracks nigga
Thinking that yo shit better
X mark the spot when you coming from the block and them niggas got a price up on yo head
Niggas don’t care bout rights for ya first amendment get killed for what you said
Know you got a lot of fucking snakes in ya camp tell me nigga why you ain’t never see them shed
That’s how you end up dead
While a nigga out cutting grass instead
Fruits of my labor done ripened
Look at me bitch I'm smiling
Niggas only eat when they biting
They paranoia just heightened
Nigga only tough when they typing
Type of shit have me dying
This just family no buy in
No my body not like them
No my body not like them
It's a gap between us like a hyphen
To be realistic I can just snipe them
Starting waves in the crowd you just a hypeman
I only focus on the cheddar and making life better
Ya shorty on me cuz you hating
Not focused on getting her wetter and music
But that's why you tuned in look
If I put a mill in a book
I bet you you niggas wont read it
Cool
That's why I be spitting my thesis
Smoking weed while I'm shopping for pieces
At the top linked up with my brothers
Doing business and we helping each other
But you mad you don't get the same treatment
I'm sick of people talking down cuz I peeped it
Hold up my money machine started beeping
Designer on me for a reason
I work hard it don't stop for a season
I flow like god but they doubting like heathens
Young Watty
Yeah ya know who the best
Top of the rope
Flexing with jewels on my chest
I might just go up
I might just go nuts
I might just put you on a stretcher
I'ma professional flexer that mean I live for the stunt
Getting sober where the fuck is my blunt
If you don't know me what the fuck do you want
Chasing M's fuck around and get some
Never chasing films make a new one
Top ten and they know I'm the one
Watty
Yeah
Fruits of my labor done ripened
Look at me bitch I'm smiling
Niggas only eat when they biting
They paranoia just heightened
Nigga only tough when they typing
Type of shit have me dying
This just family no buy in
No my body not like them
