Peeked out of the window
I saw my partna nigga Trae
Smokin on the hay
That's the way it goes when ya ballin parlay
So I got up
And I hopped in the shower
Ya know a big dude like to smell good
So I took about an hour
Popped the cherry maan
With a playa bald fade
That's the way it go when a playa stay paid
On the scene with my partna Pete

Niggas be swervin out the lane
