Moving out in my logo tee
Early morning, fresh out
Yeah, you can't touch me

Off the Porch
I had to plant my seed
Now it's growing
Been raining for three whole days

Nah nigga, I ain't been the same
Yeah, I'm cruising with the homies
You can't fuck with stains

You a fucking lame
And you fucking heard me
I don't care about your Instagram
Or your fame, lil bitch

We sit sideways
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

[Hook]
You can catch me sittin' sideways
In somethin' pretty with the ratchet on me
I stay strapped cause I always keep a package on me
Dirtay!
It gets serious niggas die here
Ya'll niggas had it up to now?
This is my year

[Verse 1]
I'm dirtay
Movin coke thru the turnpike
These niggas call me Michael Jackson cause they know the Don turned white
I live the goon's life, and move with the moonlight
A hundred bricks in the dark'a turn the room bright
Greenville
We gridin' 'round here
Sittin' sideways with guns the size of dinosaur tales (ha ha)
Step yo' swag up I only move with smart dudes
And my trap pump more than your heart do
Fishscale
Yeah, I'm scarred for life
And slangin' bricks in the jungle
I got a Tarzan price
Plus the money longer than the vines he swang on
While ya'll niggas breakin' buds we cut them bells with the chainsaw
Dirtay!
It's the clip when it cock back
Carbon-15 got more drums than a rock band
Ridin' in a dropback
I got plenty raw
White-on-white Benz the same color as some dental floss
Fuck fed fishscale move the big fish
I'm so breaded you can call my money fish sticks


[Hook]
You can catch me sittin' sideways
In somethin' pretty with the ratchet on me
I stay strapped cause I always keep a package on me
Dirtay!
It gets serious niggas die here
Ya'll niggas had it up to now?
This is my year

[Verse 2]
I'm dirty
And my eyes sittin' real low
And the coupe doors up
Like I just kicked a field goal
A-ha-ha!
And hop off in a Tahoe
I blow so much color purple you call me Harpo
Ya'll niggas can't get close to the Don!
Yeah I got more scraps than yo moms throwed to the dog
Bloody Dada make you faded homie
If I kill you the only way they find you is they gotta cut a couple gators open
I been gangsta
Since I been born
And these pussy niggas phonier than a 3 cent coin
I'm a renegade
I blow yo fuckin' head off
Choppa so big look like I pulled my fuckin' leg off
Sittin sideways
I gotta kill this track
I swear Don Dada got more white than the opposite of black
This game been mine
And ya'll try'na get it back and plus I love how ya'll hate this shit opposites attract
And I got a red flag
And I got a red ho
And I'm grindin' out in China so I'm gettin' red dough
Fuck a lil' Beammer
Dada whip a red rove
And the inside Rudolph
Outside red nose
I keep cocaine money ya heard I'm dead rich
That mean I got more fish and bread than Jesus fed with

[Hook]
You can catch me sittin' sideways
In somethin' pretty with the ratchet on me
I stay strapped cause I always keep a package on me
Dirtay!
It gets serious niggas die here
Ya'll niggas had it up to now?
This is my year
(OK hommie)

[Verse 3]
Dirty
Now shit's about to get wicked
And bullets hoppin' out the choppa like some muh' fuckin' crickets
Greenville that's my home it gets dirty here
Ain't nothin' for a nigga to get murdered here
I'm movin' quick fast for this quick cash
And keep a package on me like a nigga with a shit bag
Fresh outta jail
So the Don do it the con way
Hit the runway and holla at fam off in Conway
This the Don way matta'fact the Don day
And I only move two blocks like a pawn play
This my day off and don't feel like touchin' nothin'
But I got some cocaine that jumpin' like she double-dutchin'

[Hook]
You can catch me sittin' sideways
In somethin' pretty with the ratchet on me
I stay strapped cause I always keep a package on me
Dirtay!
It gets serious niggas die here
Ya'll niggas had it up to now?
This is my year
