Weezy, Wee (Weezy, baby)

Bright thing on my hand sayin' (look at me)
I got your girl doin' a handstand (look at me)
Copped them 28-inch Birdmans, mami (check out me)
With fine brown eyes

It's Lil Weezy, for real
Only Cash Money Hot Boy that stood still
I got a good deal
I'm from a trill hood, I smoke real good
Slide on them skinnies in the bike with an ill hood
Pipes, rally stripes and fog lights
T-shirt white, three stripes with all ice
What that boy name? Birdman Junior, huh
Four was mild but five is so wild
I can smoke a green mile
Got a chrome nina Rolls shined up for you, baby, blin' blaow
I rock a throwback Jordan 23, rollin' on hot 23's
Tote a big Glock-23
You're lookin' at the Seventeen Ward of New Orleans
My block livin' me
I want you to look hard at some easy money
Stop playin', this is Weezy company, uh huh

Bright thing on my hand sayin' (look at me)

Copped them 28-inch Birdmans (check out me)
With fine brown eyes (OK, OK)

I'm the son of Cash Money, the father of the squad
And Baby 'bout to buy me a house in the sky
'Cause I'm so fly
When my feet touch the ground sometimes I gotta ask myself, "Why?" (Why?)
Coupe kinda wide but I move sorta quick (sorta quick)
Lookin' for my roof, where it went? (Where it went?)
Mink on the floor, big shoes on the bed (on the bed)
Windows are the tint, more wood than a bench (than a bench)
Water in the hood more green than the Grinch (than a Grinch)
Please don't play 'cause I'm connected like Sprint (like Sprint)
D's on the tray, poppin' up the back-end (back-end)
Peppermint leather with a feather in my brim (in my brim)
It's Lil Weezy, something on my wrist real breezy
And this is what I say when you see me
Look, and leave your broad at home, she get took
'Cause I'm a player hold the game by the book (yeah)

Bright thing on my hand sayin' (look at me)
I got your girl doin' a handstand, whoa (look at me)
Out them 28-inch Birdmans (check out me)

Bright thing on my hand sayin' (look at me)
I got your girl doin' a handstand (look at me)
Copped them 28-inch Birdmans (check out me)
Big thighs with brown eyes (okay, okay)

Some call me Weezy
But hoes holler "look at Lil Wayne"
In that booger-green lay like should've been Mase
Sweet, do speak but I should've put tres

So w-w-what you say shawty? We could do breakfast
Normally I wouldn't but, B done flew to Texas
And B done went to the A, keep with Jazze Pha
Okay, I'm on my way, 'cause I know he got that hay
Hey little mami, you a ghetto fire ten
You come to my post on the island

When I stop, rims don't keep spinnin', they keep shinin'
Money don't stop, keep spinnin' and keep grindin'

Bright thing on my hand sayin' (look at me)
I got your girl doin' a handstand (look at me)
Out them 28-inch Birdmans (check out me)
