Young P&H Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Niggas claim to be my friends 'til my paper rose
I felt like Jesus Christ on the cross right for his eyes close
I gave them hugs I gave them love
Instead they only wanted blood
So fuck it man, we gave them blood
We kill them it was what it was
Never said I was a gangsta I was trying get my rank up
I was trying stack my paper never wanted confrontations
That real, I'm from the city where cousin lived (where where my cousin lived)
So I know how my cousin feel
He didn't live to see the north and south unite
I got hundred thousand dollars need my swangas done right
Lane lane switching lanes we just switching at night
Lane lane switching lines we just living our life (that's right)

Yeah
You know we swangin'
You know we stay dangerous
She just wanna be famous
Be famous
Yeah

Swanging, swanging, swanging, swanging
Yea I'm from the H
High up in the clouds
In my own lane
Chilling with the crew
Just like the old days
Got my music up
Bumping screw man
Switching lanes gripping gran
Got this cup it's filled with drank
Yea it's purp what you thank
Everyday we fucking bang

Getting money that never changed
Break you off 'cause you lame
H town what I'm throwing
'Cause a nigga swang

Got my hazards on
And you know I'm swangin' all night
Slow it down pop the truck
Represent the west 'cause you know what's up
'Cause you better choose the right one or pick the kiddies up

Yeah
You know we swangin'
You know we stay dangerous
She just wanna be famous
Be famous

In the H-town yeah nigga what it do
In the the southwest yeah nigga what it do
Place them house bets when we comin' thru
We the best, DJ Khaled with the clue

When I set trip on the next shit
LMT flip chicks
Like gymnastics now that's savage
Wala magic it's tragic 'cause y'all can't have it
While out with the magic
