Young nigga, young nigga I'll rather be richer
Than flexing these cameras and taking these pictures
I'm a young nigga, I walk 'round the hood
I got boss credentials, they callin' me mister
Quick to shoot 3, Derek Fisher
No referee I'm official
I just might pull out my Fisker
You pussy I see your whiskers
Call up the plug no Santa
But he sending trees and gas for Christmas
Whippin' the dope, I terminate it
J's they say it's delicious
I got a bitch in my kitchen
With a onion booty I call her Delicious
And after she water whip it
I make that bitch wash the dishes
Into the Fisker, I'm doing 250
I'm praying I don't get a ticket
Yes I'm a Migo, but I don't wear Dickies
I'll rather put on True Religion
And if you want fame over money my nigga
Then you not true to your religion
I'll rather be rich
'Cause its some niggas that's famous that ain't got shit.

Nigga I'll rather be rich than famous
R-Rich than famous

Nigga I'll rather be rich than famous
Nigga I'll rather be rich than famous

I'll rather be rich, I flex with your bitch
You can have the fame, you can have the gold chain
M's nigga, want them M's nigga
Got some niggas in the hood, they got M's nigga
Ask P, ask me
Northside Migo gang OG
Ridin' round, deuces on a damn Audi
'Fore I had a deal, young nigga copped it
Them dubs, them fifties, them hundreds
My trap always bunkin' you niggas is funny
I'm laughin with money
Beatin' the pot like I'm Sonny
Taking them trips making them flip
12 hit the block then I dip
Callin' up P, for the whips
Get in the pot then I WHIP!
