Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Free Big Sawce makin′ sandwiches having motion
Riding my dick they tried to tell me I ain't know shit
′Cause I wasn't with that hoe shit
Real nigga devotion, grind on 10 slicker than a bottle of lotion
Free Big Sawce makin' sandwiches having motion
Riding my dick they tried to tell me I ain′t know shit
Real nigga devotion
Cherish that shit jelly fishes showing emotion
I cried twice prayed once, I should be boastin′
Killing these niggas I'm independent no promotion
What′s all the commotion?
Rappers ain't makin′ money it look good on the social
Pastor told me you gon' be big he had a notion
Threatened me and said you gon' slide then pulled a no show
Pain ease by fuckin′ a porn star on the go pro
Bump my head now when I can listen to old folk
I don′t really hangout, 'cause they don′t understand me
Always had yo' back since we was trappin′ off on Chamblee
Bitch tried to scam me
Lift her up on Howell mill don't play me ′bout my family
Serious rock yo' shit fast and furious
Checkin' my page I know they curious
And they gon′ smoke good get yo′ vibe out
And trapped like a bitch while they hearing this
Real nigga devotion, grind on 10 slicker than a bottle of lotion
Free Big Sawce makin' sandwiches having motion
Riding my dick they tried to tell me I ain′t know shit
'Cause I wasn′t with that hoe shit
Real nigga devotion, grind on 10 slicker than a bottle of lotion
Free Big Sawce makin' sandwiches having motion
Riding my dick they tried to tell me I ain′t know shit
'Cause I wasn't with that hoe shit
Real nigga devotion
Real talk when your diamonds look like the ocean
Park yo′ boat and bitch we floating, had some folk take me for a joke
Big smoke, roll a ten or four, baby say I′m a goat
I got pain from some years I try to work to clear my mind
I can't fake like I′m weird I'm pretty G I′m wit' a dollar
Independent and you watched me worker to a boss
Count me out that′s yo' loss, check good fuck the cost
That's devotion
Nah, he ain′t send it to me but I had just shout you out dog
Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay, for sure, for sure, for sure, for sure
You putting Curfew on there?
Oh, yeah, Curfew gon′ be on there for sure, a hundred percent
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay
For sure, hundred percent (I know)
Get up out that mo'fucker
Man, word
You know what I mean? Just be goin′ thought this shit
