Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fresh from the dealership, I cop 3 Phantoms (whoop)
Millionaire shades keep your boy so handsome (fresh)
Don’t hate, see I play with the cards I was dealt with (come on)
I’m all about my green like I ball for the Celtics (cash)
200 G’s so I can ship or shine (ah hah)
And the watch face blue like a New York Giant (damn)
And no commercial trap a homie when I take my trips (uh uh)
Your chick shops at the mall, mine owns her kicks (ah hah)
You see the other niggas doin’ it, but not like me (nope)
It ain’t a team in the league who can out ball me (uh uh)
My money tall like Yao Ming (damn,) you’re short like JD (hah hah)
I live with one model, that’s fuck you pay me (where the cash at?)
Pilsbury boy, I’m about my dough (ching!)
Crib so big you get lost like the TV show (hah hah)
Still black cars spinnin’, shoppin’ habits is reckless
Walk in Neimann Marcus, where the polo section (I got)
