Hey
Ma ville et mon quartier me traitent comme si j'étais Zeus

J'rentre dans le club et on m'traite comme si j'étais Zeus (yah)
Si tu bouges pas ton boule c'est qu't'es qu'une bouffonne
La foule me suit comme si j'étais une boussole (yah)
J'leur pisse dessus du haut d'ma montagne (yah)
Un magnum et le bon Dieu qui m'accompagnent
J'retourne le club avec mes migos, migos
Slalom dans ces putes comme si j'étais Zico, Zico
On whip la sauce derrière les rideaux, whip, wjip
Dis-moi où ils sont j'les braque aussitôt, ouh
