Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sometime I rhyme quick
Sometime I buy blow,so I supply bricks
Motherfuckers looking at me sideways
But can they tell that I'm getting money fly ways, lot of leatherwood
and they seats vibrate, chatting wit a bitch like your boys on Myspace
But she right here in my face, take her to a fly place
With a fly fireplace,no marshmallows
Girl its you're turn,I told you lies all my life
But you hold me down wrong or right
So its only right she get that Porsche truck
All black black rims call her Porsche
Let you're weave blow in the wind, 'cause believe every d boy need a friend
When can we, get away and enjoy each other
Get away and explore each other
All I wanna know is,when can we
Get away and exchange our feelings
Keep it poppin like a movie screening, I only wanna get away
In into heavy dope, I don't kiss very ho
So when I like a bitch, I am miss Mary o
Feed alarios, sip ever glow,wit Gloria
That's a fine and humilio, baby really though
Its you're best bet,they'll be 6 O's in my next check
Wit a gun in hand I've always been a money man
Crack running man,fat Randall Cunningham
Look here I'ma tell you like this
We need time just to kick it like this
She licking my lips,she digging my kicks
So we did it like this,its rick Ross I'm the man of the hour
She love to make love,and we can in the shower
Back against the wall I'ma stand like a tower
Every time I'ma stand like a tower
Sometimes I rhyme slow sometime I rhyme quick
Sometime I buy blow so I supply bricks
You can't look me in the face girl
When you wrog ima put you in you're place girl
