NLE Choppa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now and then, I think of all the times you screwed me over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing

Ayy, don't butt deal with it, we swervin' (we swervin')
It was stolen cars I was hoppin' out with my Glock, tryna give me a murder (pop, pop)
Huh, come on, now we in them tennis suburbs (suburbs)
Pullin' up in all black just for the Glock to match her purse (purse)
Come on, bingo on body for body (a body)
Fuck that, I'm tryna stack up the profit, I love that
I was thirteen, runnin' around like a Rugrat
I'm tryna numb all the pain, where the drugs at?
Gucci (come on), Louis (come on), spend it (come on), blew it (come on)
Remember them days (come on), when I couldn't even do it (come on)
I ain't even need a nigga back then
Present day, he turn red, I knew it (mhm)
Cricket ass nigga, we straight (we straight), yeah
Always on time, never late (never late), yeah
They was doing dirty shit on me, but god was bakin' the cake (bakin' the cake), yeah
Fresh as hell, in some BAPE
My bitch Chanel down feedin' grapes to me
Knew that nigga was a snake
Now he snakeskin on my hoodie

Smokin' on them tonight, rollin' our pack all night (all night)
If I ain't kill him in the flesh, we killed them niggas at life (at life)
Make sure you roll him up tight (tight), make sure you roll him up right (right)
So we can puff all night (night), 'cause we smokin' our pack for life (mhm)
Smokin' on them tonight (mhm), rolling our pack all night (mhm)
If I ain't kill him in the flesh (flesh), we killed them niggas at life (at life)
Make sure you roll him up tight (tight), make sure you roll him up right (right)
So we can puff all night, 'cause we smokin' our pack for life

I don't even need your love,
You treat me like a stranger and I feel so rough

Coop peanut butter jelly on the inside, I gave it (I gave it)
Overseas I'm a household name, nigga, I made it (NLE)
I'm the person that I used to pray to be when I was the old me, yeah
Appreciate, don't hate, use me as motivation (that's old me)
They was on the floor, waitin' on me to fall it's four years in, I still ain't fall off
Nigga went broke, tryna ball ten M's up, ain't nothin' but six feet tall (mhm)
Ran it up, stack it, then do it again (yeah)
Get so much money, don't need a friend (yeah)
Shit, no niggas, wherever, whoever
Don't even give a fuck who I offend
Remember say no to drugs, kids, but I'ma smoke to this (roll up)
With you and you and you and you in the black, I'm on some oppo' shit (yeah)

Smokin' on them tonight, rollin' our pack all night (all night)
If I ain't kill him in the flesh, we killed them niggas at life (at life)
Make sure you roll him up tight (tight), make sure you roll him up right (right)
So we can puff all night (night), 'cause we smokin' our pack for life (mhm)
Smokin' on them tonight (mhm), rolling our pack all night (mhm)
If I ain't kill him in the flesh (flesh), we killed them niggas at life (at life)
Make sure you roll him up tight (tight), make sure you roll him up right (right)
So we can puff all night, 'cause we smokin' our pack for life





And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
