On Top
The Girl Next Door feat. WMD Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Watching haters wonder why
Gambino got the game locked
Half Thai thickie
All she wanna do is Bangkok 
Got her hair done, French braids
Now she A$AP bino so insensitive
She askin' "Why you say that?!"
I'm chillin' (yeah) , real nigga feelin'
Rich kid, asshole paint me as a villain
Still spitting that cash flow, DJ Khaled
I got a penthouse on both coasts, pH balance
Real nigga, I rep those
Why though? 'Cause I said so
Hip deep in that Pepto
I got five on her like Ben Folds
I got more tail than that PetCo
You faker than some Sweet'N Low
Yeah, you got some silverware
But really are you eating though
Are you eating though?
Nigga, are you eating though?
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner's
For beginners, you ain't even know
Never catching cases
Why they faces look so E-M-O




Watch a hater hate me
Wanna play me like a piano
