A brown boy like me in the game ain't what they used to
A brown boy like me in the game ain't what they used to
A brown boy like me in the game ain't what they used to
A brown boy like me in the game ain't what they used to

Course mode in my foreign I'm dodging the pot holes (skrrt)
Married to the game, ain't cuffing no thot ho (thot ho)
Fucking 'round with prescriptions taking a deadly dose (dose)
Everybody knowing my name now from coast to coast (coast to coast)
Fuck it I rap 'bout drugs all the time, 'cause I do 'em too (I do 'em too)
Double cup filled with mud, I'm 'bout to abuse you (abuse you)
If I catch my opps with they gang, they making the news too
A brown boy like me in the game ain't what they used to (brown boy)

'Til my time is up, I'ma get a check, run it up, yeah
Took care the gang, they good, I loaded my mama up, yeah
Did everything I could, I'ma do everything I should, yeah
Diamonds shine everybody look, yeah
They ain't ever getting took, yeah
Dior runners for everybody on my team, okay
VVS A-D-X's bitch gon' fuck us right away
Why not get a lil' street sweeper, so he can clean, let it spray
Why not pay for my car in cash, they gon' ship that shit today

Course mode in my foreign I'm dodging the pot holes (skrrt)
Married to the game, ain't cuffing no thot ho (thot ho)
Fucking 'round with prescriptions taking a deadly dose (dose)
Everybody knowing my name now from coast to coast (coast to coast)
Fuck it I rap 'bout drugs all the time, 'cause I do 'em too (I do 'em too)
Double cup filled with mud, I'm 'bout to abuse you (abuse you)
If I catch my opps with they gang, they making the news too
A brown boy like me in the game ain't what they used to (brown boy)

Sip lean two months straight
YSL jeans too tight they don't fit me
Got a new girl, she great and we get high like Bobby and Whitney
Money locked in my safe, cash out every check that they send me
Took over my brother's case, I paid all bills that they let me
I don't care if they hate, as long as they talking 'bout me its okay
Stacked my money so tall, I can't see anyone anyway
Treating my cars like Hot Wheels, bring my toys outside to play
Lame ass rappers recycling flows, I ain't got no time to waste

Course mode in my foreign I'm dodging the pot holes (skrrt)
Married to the game, ain't cuffing no thot ho (thot ho)
