SHIFT
F Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Running to money I’m dashing
I got connects bitch I’m tapped in
Pick and roll like Dirk no Mavericks
Lay me up in a casket
Smoking on dope and it’s better
Never been the one to settle
Don’t turn your back that’s a set up
Fake ass hoes, they got me fed up
Counting my bread up lil hoe get a grip
I ain’t got time to put up with yo lip
Bitch I don’t bang ain’t no blood or no crip
And I ain’t no captain but I’m on the ship
I ain’t in NASA but I’m on the moon
I don’t wanna drive baby I wanna cruise
The people that know me they tell me I’m doomed
The ones that don’t know me they tell me I’m up
And I don’t really give a fuck
If you got a problem bitch you a dub
My mind is on overload, pockets on stuff
I stick to the G code never gone bust
Yeah that bitch a freak hoe always take nut
And you ain’t love baby that’s just lust
Don’t call me Jake the jimmy on tuck
When I’m at heavens gate I’m rolling up blunts
I hit a homer don’t go for no bunt
Don’t want rover man I want a caddy
These hoes cheap man just like natty
I’ll still bend her over man I ain’t gone front
Grind 24/7 don’t wait for no sun
They talk a lot but don’t really no none
Yeah always at work yeah that’s just the regular
Way above schedule getting my cheddar up
Bitch I’m trying to make a move ain’t no letting up
What the fuck you tryna do hoe I said enough
Looking around I don’t see no competitor
Looking for H.E.F right there ahead of ya
Pesos I need my stacks
Case closed I don’t need no rats
If I’m serving that shit boi you know im gone tax
Sugar buger but I don’t smoke crack
I got the gas you smoke reggie
L kicking in and it’s heavy
Heavy like metal
I’ll put my bud in a relo
But Id rather smoke out a gb
Fuck outa my shit hoe what do you need
People be talking to much about grease




Stay lowkey stay holding it down for yo Gs
Bitch I’m 100 till six feet deep

Question so you can turn the 4x4H in motion without pulling over you don’t have tu pull over I have a 2015 f150 4x4 but I’m scared to turn the button on while I’m driving I don’t want to break it

@tonyharwell3463

My face plate is loose. It will not pop or set securely in place. This is causing my differential to lock. Are there grommets or something missing behind my switch face plate??

@Arthurmd22

If driving on interstate, what speed is safe to move between 4h and 2h due to changing (wet,etc) road conditions?

@kyleolin3566

Can you lock the rear diff in 2wd on those trucks? That sounds like fun!

@altchanel9693

Could it be possible.. not absurdly costly
To go from switch selector to lever shifter and put it in place of where the shifter is on the center console in higher trim models?
