Ballers Flossin'
II Tru Lyrics

Ballers flossin' in their rides
There are rich people showing off with their fancy cars

But we still drivin', drivin', drivin' our hoopties
We are still driving our old, beat-up cars

Another one of these days, early in the morning
This is just like any other day

I hear you blowin' (Car horn)
I hear you honking your car horn

Here we come, out the door
We are leaving the house

What's up, Arch?
What's going on, Arch?

Pass the Windsor, can a sister so smoke with you?
Can I have a cigarette, Arch?

Let me get that back seat to hear them six by nines
Let me sit in the back seat to listen to the loud speakers

Radio on ten, factory speakers about to bust
The radio is turned up all the way and the artists are about to blow out

Master P coverin' up noise from that exhaust
The loud music is drowning out the sound of the car's engine

Destination: Gordon Park, steadily smokin' on leaves
We are going to Gordon Park to smoke marijuana

Nothin' but the drop six-four's on D's
We only see people driving lowrider cars with 64 inch wheels

Bouncin' like a mother, rims sparklin' in sun
The cars are bouncing heavily and the rims are shining in the sunlight

Us, we got three hubcaps and a ?
Our car only has three hubcaps and something is missing

Commence to roll the House of Windors at this red light
Let's roll the cigarettes now that we are stopped at a red traffic light

Drop-top candy-apple red six-four pulls up to the side
A convertible red lowrider car pulls up next to us

Tight-ass chrome, I swear this playa got wet paint
The car has shiny chrome accents and the paint looks wet

Turn the system, down, they drownin' out our sounds
Lower our music, their music is too loud and we can't hear ours

Man hittin' switches - watch him floss
The driver is making the car bounce up and down to show off

Hittin' 3's; let's pull off
He is making the car bounce three times, let's leave

There's the store, gotta get some Zinfindel
We need to buy some Zinfandel wine from the store

And ? for the park
We also need something else for the park

They rollin' with a backseat full of speakers
They have lots of loud speakers in the backseat of their car

And a trunk full batteries, talk on a cellular on the regular
They have lots of car batteries in the trunk, and they often talk on their cell phones

You can tell when a nigga got cheese
You can tell when someone is rich

And see this Ford Escort with no brakes
Look at this Ford Escort that doesn't have any brakes

It's pushin' on E, baby, and I'm sick of this
The car is running on empty and I'm tired of it

It's a shame what a sister has todeal with all these things
It's unfortunate that I have to deal with all these struggles

We gotsta kick it, now
We need to hang out now

Out the car, where my lighter at?
Let's get out of the car and find my lighter

Kickin' back, tape in my pocket
Relaxing, I have a cassette tape in my pocket

Doin' pancakes, lookin' lovely
The car is bouncing up and down smoothly

You can ball, AJay, in your trunk, he come off frontin'
AJay can show off and look rich by putting expensive items in his car trunk

Just for ten, thanks for the support
They sold a cassette tape for ten dollars, thank you for buying it

Now we back to the hoop, gotta another tape off
Now let's go back to playing basketball, I have another cassette tape to sell

Let's watch these playas act a fool
Let's watch these people act crazy and show off

Let's get me up on some Hen
Let's drink some Hennessy cognac

And we can pretend like we sippin' on Don, playa
We can pretend to be drinking Don Perignon champagne

'Cause we still got to hustle, welfare for cold of poverty
We still need to work hard to escape poverty

If we gon' smoke this weed
If we are going to smoke marijuana

We better push some more or these tapes
We need to sell more cassette tapes

It's gettin' dark, they be takin' their shows in
It's getting late, they will be leaving soon

Better hurry before it's too late
We need to hurry before they leave

Parlay in the heart of Land, just hangin'
Let's hang out in the center of town

'Cause it's summer time
Because it is summertime

Three deep in the fo' hoopty
There are three people in the old car

All around us, ballers in they rides
There are rich people with fancy cars all around us

Seen enough ballers flossin'
I have seen enough people showing off with their expensive things

Time for us trues to get some cash
It's time for us real people to make some money

One of these days sister's pockets gon' be on swoll
One of these days I will have lots of money

II Tru and AJay gon' have some rides to boss the roads
I will buy a nice car with the money I make from music

'Cause I'm gon' get mine
I will get what I am owed

When I get paid off these here rhymes
When I start making money from my music

And you can put that on your family
I guarantee it, you can tell your family so

I'm a put on my trues, we want this tape
I will wear my best outfit, we want to sell this cassette tape

Player, recognize II Tru's comin' to get you fools
Be aware, II Tru is going to succeed

And these ghetto blues done had us faded too long
We have been suffering from poverty for too long

And the ballers that's flossin' in they rides
The people showing off with fancy cars

Gon' be bumpin' to our songs
Will be listening to our music

Blaze it up, Jhaz
Light up the marijuana, Jhaz

Two hits, then you pass
Take two puffs and then pass it to someone else

In another year, we gon' be top class playas in this game
In a year, we will be successful and respected in the music industry

We gon' change for them good thangs
We will improve ourselves for good things to happen

Let them floss, 'cause it's all good until we get paid
Let them show off, because once we make money, we will be the ones with the power
