Role Model
Curren$y Lyrics
I'm not ya fuckin Role Model
I sling tail like iguana
Stop it the nina on me like Inguodala
In variations like bible verses I'm not reliable
In a stand off
Knock it off
Bitch nigga sitcho ass down
Ha ha
Show at the Apollo
Ha haGet off my mutha fukin dick
Here's a tip bitch
Just swallow
That's what I know
Talk my shit and grab my dick
Bitch I'm no Role Model
No Way to save him
Avoid corner store condoms
Ya so confident
I apostrophe
Am a monster
You got police reports
Of course it's obvious
I forgot you opp bitch
I'm more chest and nuts then Morris Chestnut
So I'm cocky
I still push pills
Cosby's
My prime optimist
More metal
Than bike garages and shit
What kind of high is this?
Support the child
She let it die on her lip
Who the fuck you think you are?
No role modelWas dropped on my head as a toddler
Diagnosed Giant
Problem for all speedometers
Demon driven despite the licence
My vices are heightened like Nephilim
Hype and hoppin' for high fives
Tyson approach
What you hearing is eerie
A spirit wita Holy feelin'
And four men grilling niggas in tight clothes
I'm Carlos San-Thanos
You play and you C-Lay like a Pueblo
I'm anal as diaper rash
Passion of the Anti-Christ
I was boom-baptized with the blood of Christopher Wallace
A pack of condoms from prophets
I promise to properly Pac it
Shak my Kur audience
Make em hostage and hide em in hospital closets
Locked wita ticking bomb and a mop bucket
Channeling my best Samuel L. Jackson reaction
Facing the camera
I'm the Jugernaut bitch and I gotta bitch wit me
Smiling wita criminal mind
Ready to slap the social security shit outa senior citizens
Dying to Tyler Perry movies
Madae'za different target
The margin is slimmer
Doper than Simpsons
At home wit at Lisa nuf action to load up a Maggie
Then clap at a Bar wita T on
Bagging watches and wallets
Watching for cops
Unscrewing a plasma Tv
Flagging down taxi drivers like I'm new in town
Driving around spazzing til we bring a Mill to the House
Get off my mutha fukin' dick
No way to save him
I sling tail like iguana
Stop it the nina on me like Inguodala
In variations like bible verses I'm not reliable
In a stand off
Knock it off
Bitch nigga sitcho ass down
Ha ha
Show at the Apollo
Ha haGet off my mutha fukin dick
Here's a tip bitch
Just swallow
That's what I know
Talk my shit and grab my dick
Bitch I'm no Role Model
No Way to save him

Ya so confident
