Yea, I'm an affiliate, I'm no hit man
Yea, I'm an affiliate, I'm no hit man
Yea, I'm an affiliate, I'm no hit man

In case you don't understand, we'll make it understood again
King of the underground, my gangsta will never fail
You bout to make me go postal for fuckin' with my mail

Real street niggas, all the ghetto hoes on our jock
When I hit the strip, all my troops listen while I talk
This what I tell em, "Take these yams lil' man
Break it down, get back, see a couple grams"
And don't talk to square niggas, you know, Spongebobs
Kanye West niggas, talking through the wire dog
Watch for goonies when you got it, niggas want to rob
And pull a staff and quarterback 'em like Brett Favre

Smoke purp by the pound, ounce by the fifth
Re-up on the first then again on the fifth (yea)
We trap or die nigga, we trap or die nigga
Ya know these hoes love a nigga cause they know that we the truth




Got the Chevy same color Tropicana orange juice (yea)
We trap or die nigga, we trap or die nigga
