Think he fuckin' with me
Think he fuckin' with me
Think he fuckin' with me
A1 what you tell em'
Think he fuckin' with me he aint fuckin' take his medicine
I got these senior citizen caps hitting me wantin they medicine
They asking A1 how you doing
I see you improving
Swear my life a movie
I paused and resumed it
In the booth on Monday dropping that shit like church on Sunday
Trappin in Lacoste, reading the Bible and its fraud
No Redbull but I got wings, I'm tryna take off
And these bitch keep fuckin' with me
I'm tryna prove em wrong
Thinking shit be sweet. A 1-2-3 feelin' physco bob
Fire off that firearm that's the only alarm
They say life's a bitch so I pass em to my dead dogs
She only had one job, I told her drop that neck don't stop
Thats Blurrry
Blur, blur, blur, blur, blur, blur
Thats Blurrry
Blur, blur, blur, blur, blur, blur
Thats Blurrry
Blur, blur, blur, blur, blur, blur
Thats Blurrry
Blur, blur, blur, blur, blur, blur
Back in the booth go dummy
Niggas still hating but ain't getting no money
Ion care what you might see me with just know you can't get shit from me
Don't play wit me cuz you hungry pump In yo guts open up yo tummy
Niggas ain't fucking wit Erks but they just might try it don't work shit funny
But I stay it the cut
Gotta lil play gotta k in the truck
One on the waist but it stay in the tuck
Until one of these pussies wan play and get fucked
Callin these plays laying em up
Young pat Riley, Ray in the cut
Dame time same time blazing em up
7k way straight out the mud
Pop straight out and buss back to the same shit
Money don't change shit
Be having too much on my brain I roll up again I'm tryna erase it
Nother One to the face give em one to the face
Give it up nigga face it
Nigga just basic GTA six nigga get wasted
Blurrry
Blur, blur, blur, blur, blur, blur
Thats Blurrry
Blur, blur, blur, blur, blur, blur

Black on black I'm strapped I got that that tool on me now
Confiscate your block it ain't no moving me now
You niggas thinking that you hot I got the cooling kit now
Boy if it's up then it's stuck it ain't no smoothing shit out
Catch me posted on your block and shit
I be dropping shit
Similar to a custodian cuz I be mopping shit.
No convo for a bitch just make it sloppy use a lot of spit
And if I say to do it for the gram
It is not a pic
I stay in you in yo bitch
I'm just working on my stamina
Shoulda named me Melvin
Baby boy I ain't no amateur




Suggest you reconsider if you ever think bout jammin' us
Cuz shit get blurry like a android camera

Absolutely brilliant, as a former British Soldier it was an honour to have served alongside The United States Marines in Iraq & Afghanistan.

Atkinson: God bless you sir. I'm sure my respect reflects that of many when I say thank you for being our faithful partner.

@lilacscentedfushias1852

When my American ex was here in the uk his mom said with all the terrorist attacks he should ring the us embassy in London. He did, they told him he spoke English, so was fair game for terrorists, they didn’t care what accent you spoke it with, British, Australian, Canadian….🤷🏼‍♀️
It did give me a chuckle because I’d already said he didn’t need to ring them & gave a similar reason why 😂
His parents and two brothers were in the us navy, he was idle and barely even worked. I could never get my head around naval air station Whidbey having planes…it should just have boats 😂 to my Aspergers way of thinking. A beautiful place to visit, I’d go again if he wasn’t there

Played at the speed intended by Sousa, by the band it was written for. Love the way the trumpets and trombones held their horns properly, too.

@truthguide1742

I love military marches and music. It gives me a sense of pride, patriotism, respect for military band performers, most of the music is upbeat/moving/arousing. The percussion, timing, disciplined, professionalism stands out.

@sandragreen9560

Tears of pride and patriotism. . .

@mikeprevost8650

It's a Marine divisional band. It's not THE Marine Band, the President's Own.
