Hussle man a shooter that's a fact, nigga
Thirty-two extendos in my MAC, nigga
Spend a thousand on some t-shirts up at Saks, nigga
I ain't nothing like you fucking rap niggas
Hussle man a shooter that's a fact, nigga
Thirty-two extendos in my MAC, nigga
Spend a thousand on some t-shirts up at Saks, nigga
V12s in the vallet, black on black, nigga
Ese in the Valley do my tats, nigga
White boy in Manhattan, pay my tax, nigga
Drive out to the Hamptons to relax, nigga
I stopped smoking weed, then I relapse, nigga
Traveled 'round the world, then I came back, nigga
Worth a couple a million, that's a fact, nigga
But I am nothing like you fucking rap niggas
I own all the rights to all my raps, nigga
German plates with sheepskin on my mats, nigga
Murder rate increasing if I snap, nigga
Ain't no hanging out, we take y'all off then double back, nigga
Open trust2 account deposit racks, nigga
Million dollar life insurance on my flesh, nigga
Beamer's, Benz, Bentley's or a Lex, nigga
Ferrari's and them Lambo's that's what's next, nigga
I ain't nothing like you fucking rap niggas
Hussle man a shooter that's a fact, nigga
Thirty-two extendos in my MAC, nigga
Spend a thousand on some t-shirts up at Saks, nigga
I ain't nothing like you fucking rap niggas
Hussle man a shooter that's a fact, nigga
Thirty-two extendos in my MAC, nigga
Spend a thousand on some t-shirts up at Saks, nigga
AMG Mercedes, back to back, nigga
Chopper to his face now that's a wrap, nigga
The streets talk and that's a rat nigga
Yo' P.O. call you up, look that's a trap, nigga
Beat that case that was that, nigga
Told the world look I'm back, nigga
Signed my deal, then I crack, nigga
They folded, so I left, nigga
Can't no motherfucker tell me shit, nigga
We the No Limit of the West, nigga
Percy Miller at his best, nigga
Jigga with the Rollie and the vest, nigga
Acne jeans and Giuseppes, nigga
Serving fiends off the steps, nigga
Murder sprees for the set, nigga
All facts, ain't no mothafucking threat, nigga
I ain't nothing like you fucking rap niggas
Hussle man a shooter that's a fact, nigga
Thirty-two extendos in my MAC, nigga
Spend a thousand on some t-shirts up at Saks, nigga
I ain't nothing like you fucking rap niggas
Hussle man a shooter that's a fact, nigga
Thirty-two extendos in my MAC, nigga
Spend a thousand on some t-shirts up at Saks, nigga
