Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it up Mr. Roll it up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
I wake up in the morning
And I sip my teacup
I sit down at the table
And I break my weed up
I roll up a blunt
And then I kick my feet up
Go to masscanrev so I can read up
On the green stuff
The weed puff
The only thing I need stuff
I'm the real puff daddy
And I don't mean puff
So I light up the blunt
And smoke it till it's done
Since I have Green Thumb,
I don't go on a run
Yeah, its all I need
So much weed
I drip bud I don't bleed
If things get rocky
Don't be cocky
Call your brother, Appollo Creed
We gonna have a session and get lit
Pissed off - the weed gonna help you forget shit
Black to white, day and night
This weed gonna have you feeling right
If you hustle, hustle this
No need to be dealing white
Record amount of blunts
Make a movie, get the dolly
Smoked out, they can't see me
That's why they call me
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it up Mr. Roll it up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it, Roll it Up
Mr. Roll it up Mr. Roll it up

Smoked out, they can't see me
Being heavily under the influence of marijuana, others may struggle to perceive me clearly
That's why they call me
This is the reason behind my nickname, Mr. Roll it Up

I'm black born and raised in the USA... I just discovered modern african music and it is totally different than the hip hop and r&b in America. This music doesn't degrade women, black men are not ashamed to have black women in their music videos... AND THE MELANIN! Now a days I never see rappers from the USA displaying dark skin girls in their videos. Plus american rappers always have to call women degrading names like bitches, hoes, and thots. I guess this is what i'll be listening to more of now. I've been playing it over and over lol
