Do you understand? I'm the mans in my city

All these drugs got me trippin'
Got a nigga feelin' different, yeah
Do you understand?

I just got the all-white V-AMG 63
Niggas can't catch me (Do you understand?)

Kicked her out on Tuesday
She be actin' bougie (Do you understand?)
I be actin' rudely niggas wanna kill me
Bitches wanna do me (Do you understand?)

Get 'cha team killed with my black car
Ya bitch is a ho, how do I know?
Fucked her for some Snickers and
A bag of Cheetos (Ooohhh)

Sippin' through the pain, man

Draco in the spray ground
My brother keep it real wit' me
I can't trust no nigga
Gotta keep the steel wit' me
Lost my cousin, I was young
That shit still hit me
Do whatever for my brothers
It's the real in me
Never got to say "I love you"
And it's killin' me

Do you understand? I'm the mans in my city
I got bands, spend like $50, yeah
Do you understand?
I know the feds try'na get me
We've been fuckin' up the city, yeah
Do you understand? Ain't no love in my city
Gotta keep my niggas wit' me, yeah
Do you understand?
All these drugs got me trippin'




Got a nigga feelin' different, yeah
Do you understand?
