Swerve
Makonnen Lyrics

Now we ain't tryna have no fuckin' party
We don't want to party unless the girls are ready to get wild.

Unless your girls tryna all get naughty
The party is only worthwhile if the girls are willing to have fun.

I got some lean in my truck right now
I have some cough syrup mixed with soda in my car.

And I'm tryna make it all go down
I want to drink it all and get high.

My friends like sniffin' cocaine
My buddies enjoy snorting cocaine.

They hit the strip club on a bitch and make it rain
They go to the strip club and make it rain money on the dancers.

I like making money on the fuckin' corner too
I enjoy earning cash by selling drugs on the street corner.

But I'd much rather be somewhere doing Wall Street dudes
However, I would prefer making money from investments in Wall Street trading.

I had to swerve on 'em, I had to swerve
I had to avoid some obstacles while driving.

What's the word on them? What's the word?
What's happening with them? What's the news?

So can I swerve on 'em? Can I swerve?
Can I avoid them while driving?

Now I'm always flying down on the highways
I'm often driving really fast on the highways.

I be tryna make a money turn to five ways
I'm trying to multiply my money into five different sources of income.

I remember when I used to have a two way
I recall when I had a two-way pager in the past.

And now I make a club go up on a Tuesday
Now, I have the power to make a nightclub popular even on a slow weekday like Tuesday.

My cousin outta town with that new shit
My cousin is out of the town with a new kind of drug.

He comin' right back like a new pit
He's coming back with strength, like a new fighting dog.

He balkin' with that new fuckin' sparker
He's boasting about his new lighter that lights drugs more effectively.

Niggas out here crazy like they Waka
Some people in the community are crazy like the rapper Waka Flocka Flame.

I don't like to share my drugs
I prefer not to share my drugs with others.

'Cause all these niggas wanna smoke my bud
Because many people want to smoke my marijuana.

Don't nobody have no fuckin' money
Nobody seems to have any money.

They laugh at jokes, ha ha, they think this shit is funny
They laugh at jokes, but I don't find it funny.

But ain't nothin' funny at all
But there's nothing humorous about this situation.

I had to make a hundred thousand before fall
I needed to make one hundred thousand dollars before September.

I got niggas tryna kick me out my house
There are people who want to force me out of my residence.

I got niggas in the trap like a mouse
There are people I know who are currently caught in drug-related activities.

Now I'm 'bout to fly outta town
I'm about to leave town by airplane.

I'll be back in September when it's brown
I'll return in September when the leaves have turned brown.

On the leaves but I'll still have that green
I'll have money even without the summer foliage.

I mean my friends kinda know what I mean
My friends understand my actions and what my words really mean.

We be gettin' fuckin' drunk all the time now
We often get heavily intoxicated now.

I be tryna be in the High Times now
I'm aiming to be featured in High Times magazine now.

On the front cover with my fuckin' dojer
On the front cover with my designer poodle.

I play games bitch I'm PlayStation controller
I like playing video games, and I'm the one in control.

So let me swerve on em', so let me swerve
Let me avoid some people while driving, let me swerve.

You know I had to swerve on 'em, I had to swerve
I had to avoid some unexpected obstacles while driving.

So what's the word on 'em? Tell me should I swerve?
What's the latest news regarding them? Should I avoid them?

Because I swerve on 'em, yes you know I swerve
I avoided them in the past and you know it.

So what's the word on 'em? Can I swerve?
What's happening with them? Am I able to avoid them?

You know I swerve on 'em, you know I swerve
You're aware that I often avoid people while driving.

So what's the word on ' em? What's the word?
What's happening with them? What's the news?

Because I swerve on 'em, you know I swerve
I've already avoided them in the past.
