Future Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Anything she want she cashin' out without no problems
How you gon' love a nigga that ain't got love for your mama
You can die today, it ain't gon' save me none but drama (Super)
Workin' on a weekend like usual
Way off in the deep end like usual
Niggas swear they passed us, they doin' too much
Pluto
Help me fight my demons off, know the usual
I had put a chopper in her name and a Ruger
She hang on the block where I hang like a shooter
Throwed away a cougar, she didn't wanna leave
Treat her like garbage, my heart was on my sleeve
Shoulda chose better with your company at least
Why should I have love for her if she ain't get it out the creep?
Why should I have trust for you, you ain't get it out the creek?
Why should I have love for you, you ain't kneelin' to my feet?
Why should I be carin' when I know I can't be beat?
See how the ice be glarin' when I come through and retrieve
It's easy to know it's us if a body in the street
Too turned up and the plug talk Swahili
After I pay my taxes, I go Richard Millie
In another tax bracket, you niggas beneath me
Who causin' a racket in Jamaica on the weekend?
Half a ticket on vacation, I ripped up the receipt
And she call me daddy 'cause my money long like Stevie
Stay down with my son, right or wrong, FBG shit (Freebandz)
How you gon' be gang? You bang if you rich, what's in your bloodline?
Come in with some Talibans, everythin' gettin' gunned down
Halloween gang in this bitch, shit gettin' scary
Three hundred thousand for the cheapest ring
Cost a Bentley truck, I'm legendary, lil' bitch
Hot off the thermometer, lil' bitch
Hotter than fish grease, lil' bitch
My ring cost a big VS, blown as my wrist
I'm gettin' money like this, can't tell problems exist
I wake up fresh everyday like I'm goin' to take a pic
Hermes hit my main line, 'cause they know I'm lit
Stuffed a hundred fifty racks in your purse, lil' bitch
And when I wake up, go surf in your pussy, hit
Say she wanna eat sushi, I gave her enough to go shoppin'
This bitch not my bitch, I leveled up and went exotic
How you gon' love a nigga that ain't buyin' a Birkin for your mama
You can die today, I swear I still won't break my promise (Pluto)
Make love on a weekend as usual
Take drugs, goin' up, oh, that's usual
Every time she come, big spender
Every time I put my chains on, big spender
It's cool, man, got red bottoms on
Life is good, you know what I mean? Like
Yeah, hundred thousand for the cheapest ring on a nigga finger, lil' bitch, woo
I done flew one out to Spain to be in my domain and Audemar-ed the bitch, woo
Dropped three dollars on a ring, cost a Bentley truck, lil' bitch, woo
I was in the trap servin' cocaine, I ain't been the same since
I can't entertain all that flodgin'
I ain't been the same since they crossed me
You know how they do when you poppin'
You know Baby can't do all that talkin'
I got fools tryna sue up in Boston
I got dudes tryna sue down in Florida
I got hoes in L.A., got a new boo from Georgia
A milli', saved up to give to my daughter
Over one hundred K to Drew, fill in my lawyer (let's go)
Six digits on cases, we beat it like Tina (hmm)
Baby all on the T.V., that's easy
I mixed mid with the gas and I bought me a Beamer (yeah)
Now I pull up in Ghosts, they ain't see me (Casper)
I know she gon' fuck, I ain't askin' (uh huh)
F&N like a prop, this shit plastic (phew)
Fuck around and get popped just for laughin' (boom)
Put that boy in a box, pick a casket
I got take that ho to Dior, pick a shoe (let's go)
Kickin' shit with your whore, that's my boo
You can go put hardwood on the floor with the hoop (hoop)
We like uppin' the score, we gon' shoot (ball)
I never pick up when she call me (brr, brr)
Help the bitch start a business, she bossin' (uh-huh)
Like to wake up to sex like it's coffee (sex)
Big baguettes on my neck, this shit cost me
Cartier, Audemars, Audemars or the Rolex (let's go)
I've been broke before, bet I won't go back
When she walk through the door, take the iron, make her hold that (hold that)
They ain't see me, go out like a ho yet (ho)
You know these lil' niggas got ho ways
Make them come air it out like the old days (uh-huh)
You a throwaway baby, it's okay
My boy off a pill, need a OJ
Yeah, bitch
Hundred thousand for the cheapest ring on a nigga finger, lil' bitch, woo
I done flew one out to Spain to be in my domain and Audemar-ed the bitch, woo
Dropped three dollars on a ring, cost a Bentley truck, lil' bitch, woo
I was in the trap servin' cocaine, I ain't been the same since, woo
Spent thirty racks on a rap bitch
Could've went and bought a brick, whoa
Quarter million worth a chain
Ask IceBox, everybody lit, whoa
It ain't no coppin' deuces
Nigga, that's your man, everybody get it, whoa
Made a few mill', made a few hits, fuckin' everybody, bitch
Got somethin' to lose so I stay with a shooter
Got game from a GOAT, I know how to maneuver
She kinda cute, really somethin' to do
I got somethin' to do so I gave her to Pluto
Huh, hundred thousand for a body
Go inside a house and everybody get it, huh
Got a plug on exotic overnight, I'm floodin' everybody's city
Extra three-fifty, might buy me a Richie
This shit get ridiculous, sip syrup get sick
Spot in Toronto, just show me the real ones
Give me a few months, I'll be servin' the six, whoa
Rolls truck, four bucks, all white gusts, call it good luck, whoa
Neck lit, wrist lit, look, don't touch, reach, get bussed
Hop out a Phantom, they think it's Houdini
Seven-fifty one day, I bought two Lamborghinis
Hundred racks spent on a four carat diamond
I didn't propose but I bought her a ring
They had my bro, had to let that boy go
He had stick to the code, he ain't tell 'em a thing, uh
Ballin' like we won a championship, yeah
Everybody get a ring, huh
Yeah, hundred thousand for the cheapest ring on a nigga finger, lil' bitch, woo
I done flew one out to Spain to be in my domain and Audemar-ed the bitch, woo
Dropped three dollars on a ring, cost a Bentley truck, lil' bitch, woo
I was in the trap servin' cocaine, I ain't been the same since, woo
Hundred thousand for the cheapest ring on a nigga finger, lil' bitch
Hundred thousand for the cheapest ring on a nigga finger, lil' bitch (yeah)
Hundred thousand for the cheapest ring on a nigga finger, lil' bitch (woo)
Hundred thousand for the cheapest ring on a nigga finger, lil' bitch

Workin' on the weekend like usual
I work even on weekends just like I always do

Which one of you is doing their part for the gang?
I put your face on the news
I'll make sure you're news if you cross me
I put the pussy on the shirt
I had sex with someone and put their picture on a shirt as a memento
After I murk, then make 'em go shoot up the hearse
After I kill someone, I'll have my gang retaliate and attack their funeral procession
Cost me a quarter bird
I spent 250,000 dollars on drugs
Nigga it's worth it, and you a maniac
It was worth the money because you're dangerous
A fucking alien, how you splurgin'?
You spend so much money, it's like you're not from this world
Got that kitty cat, I'm having fun with that
I'm enjoying sex with my partner
Goin' Birkin
I'm buying expensive Hermes Birkin bags
