Young nigga preach

You know what I'm tryna do
Hey, let's pop the E off at LIV
I've got some timing to blow
I've got the money to blow
I've got the money and blow
Don't have to guess how I know
Oh, it's a secret? Trust me, I'll keep it
Your old niggas boring as bones
You put the PARTY tape on
You know what's going on, you know what's going on
She keep it wet like Tsunami
She think she sunk the Titanic

She think it's wavy and gnarly
I think I'ma pop one for you

I've got to find me one out here that's good at taking direction
I'm convinced that my calls are being recorded
So hit my assistant to get me the message and make the connection like, brrt

All in their feelings these days
But hearing the scripture with that many 6s you should be afraid
