All the police try to cuff us, and they bitches try to fuck us
And the fuck niggas they duck us, toast and butter for the breakfast it's nothin'
Money ain't changed, nothin' but chains and watches
Spend my advance, bought some cocaine and choppas
For the love of money, hustlin' O's
Nigga workin' with that white bitch call that hustle and flow
Nigga, no lie, my .45 and both eyes be low
My shows four-five, I'm cross-eyed, if your hoes mine, she go
Niggas wasn't ballin' before the rap shit, now keep it real
Ask about us Coke Boys, shit for real

Fuck around and get duck taped, my lil' niggas they savage
Ride around with choppers, my lil' niggas tote ratchets
Been in it since a shorty, a lot of niggas in caskets
Water whippin', my block winnin', OTF they trappin'
Fast car that Panorama, two door, fuck a Honda
Rubber grip, fuck a condom, Chiraq, we 'bout drama
Niggas know we 'bout that, get your ass smoked like Outback
No computer where that MAC at, run up on me get shot back
O'Block where Top at, bad bitch, where the top at?
Coolin', out west with my niggas, we tell 'em where the thots at and I do it
I ain't fuckin' around, niggas know they can't fuck around
Niggas know when we come around, OTF not a sound
One thing 'bout my niggas, man, my niggas with it (let's get it)
Even with this money it won't make us different (it won't)
Man down, to them niggas I'm a menace (grrah)
Whole bird, flippin' shit like I'm a gymnast (let's get it)
