Used to have bad luck til I went n switched it up
Ain't nobody show you love til you go n do it up
How i got it out the mud i got this hustle in my blood
I got this hustle in my blood spending gwala in the club
Fucked ya bitch she a dub yea yea yea
Money money run it up from a Benz to a Bently truck
I remember when i was stuck now they all on my dick
My life is a movie might catch me on Netflix
Gotta keep the pistol right under the dresser
I know niggas was mad when I hopped in the Tesla
Skirt skirt getting to the bag now
I got some niggas mad now and i don't give a fuck na na na
Skirt Skirt started with a cherry Beamer then to black Benz
I had to switch it up yea yea
Smoking on this dope running away from the police
In a rolls Royce niggas think that it was stolen
Rip Kobe I'm tryna ball out til they know me
Don't judge a book by its cover til u hear the story
I got big long nose don't make me shoot
Like Ginobili or hit you with the 40
Hate when niggas front like they got it
But they aint got it, nigga phony nigga show me
Really started from the bottom i don't really say much
Used to have bad luck til i went n switched it up
Ain't nobody show you love til you go n do it up
How i got it out the mud I got this hustle in my blood
I got this hustle in my blood spending gwala in the club
Fucked ya bitch she a dub yea yea yea
Money money run it up from a Benz to a Bently truck
I remember when i was stuck now they all on my dick
