To manaja twa, in my Adidas
Not loui vuitton dwag, these kncok-offs
I'm tryin' to get my papers like Peter Popoff
Late night BET need a bear cloth
Savin my money like so dead lost
Sex tapes like I'm wrestling -beu tokes- ?
Smoke weed, doing shots, it ain't my fault, so

Jump, jump, Like you famous
Shake, shake, Like you famous
