Bernard Herrmann - M.G.M. Studio Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We been on the steep for way too long man
Now that we on the cliff, we better go off Fr
Let's go
Me and my niggas off the cliff
And we goin' off
Me and my niggas off the cliff
Put that sig on the paper
And we wrote it off
Put that sig on the paper
And we wrote it off
Me and my niggas off the cliff
And we goin' off
Me and my niggas off the cliff
And we goin' off
Put that sig on the paper
And we wrote it off
Put that sig on the paper
And we wrote it off
End of the tunnel and I'm 'bout to go on
I sip liquor when I'm feeling blessed overall
Been getting money since 12 it's nonstop
Icon on my wrist like Audemars
I'm a pillar of the house and I'm strong
Pure talent no filter and I'm going raw
Losing my grandma is the biggest loss
But I'm going on like I have it all
Ain't gone play this time
All the bills on me this time
I flip the page I'm flippin' my life
Getting the money I'm telling no lies
Peep my rhymes
I'm feeling the vibes
Yeah
I'm doing too much better agree
Finance myself can't you see
I'm the head, I'm the brain
Nah, full body of the industry
Singer, songwriter, rapper producer
That's my girl don't seduce her
Me and my niggas off the cliff
And we goin' off
Me and my niggas off the cliff
And we goin' off
Put that sig on the paper
And we wrote it off
Put that sig on the paper
And we wrote it off
Me and my niggas off the cliff
And we goin' off
Me and my niggas off the cliff
And we goin' off
Put that sig on the paper
And we wrote it off
Put that sig on the paper
And we wrote it off
I'm too diverse like I'm Colorado
I put myself in this place and I say bravo
Man I'm powerful better check my cardio
Had a lot of nonsense that I had to cut off
These days man I love to move solo
My music so artistic like Picasso
I'm 'bout to rule this game like I'm Mikado
I'm moving too fast like I'm spermato
My brain flexible like the toe of turaco
I can lift my body cause I got a strong core
Even when I move solo I can make it to the top
I been poppin' rhymes like a skin pop
My song going too hard it's a tiptop
Tell em put on a helmet
Cause Helcy M is coming with the headshot
