Cars
Curren$y Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

On the low like a ground effects kit
20/24 chronic in this bitch
Took my drivers seat out, put a throne in my shit
We street kings, concrete castles, penthouses is lavish
It was established I could have it when I met her, but
I ain't even gon' fuck
Just gon' bend a corners on a couple my homies
See what the gas man got for me
Light one at the light, as I got on the highway
Passenger occupied by pretty eyes half open
'Cause she been smokin'
That girl so high, that girl on fire for a rider
Now she right on side one

Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system

S10 blazers, dancing bears
I used to draw 'em on my loose-leaf papers
Now the proof is on the pavement
We made it we major
We turned people who used to be cool with us into haters
So? Can't be scared to grow, they want you afraid to shine
'Cause they too pussy to try
I'm paid cuz, I said do when you said die
I laid down log, paid dues, bend rules, never lie
Tony made what he could on the side
Never turned you Frank
Just tried to add a couple zeros to the bank
But you know how that went
Ambition to get tigers at the crib and all types of crazy shit

Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system




Cars with the boomin' system
Cars with the boomin' system

Curren$y is the only rapper I know who won't just blindly throw money at a car. He can haggle his shit like a true car enthusiast. He moves smart. Not just buy the newest most expensive car on the lot. Much respect to Young Spitta Andretti.

I mean... Chamillionaire invested...don't think it was cars either

Bob

As a owner of a 63 and 65 impala He trying to do what I do keep it all og!

@David Álvarez It is a luxury to have millions at your disposal, but I digress. This "spend it, why save?" mentality is the main reason people in general go broke. Even the wealthiest men/women still have to properly invest and manage their money wisely.
