Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I put in time for this you don't work hard like me then you don't shine like this
And you know nigga I got me a dime lil bitch I see you old hoes steady spying and shit
Light from my watch probably blind a bitch spark up a blunt when I drive the whip
Nobody gone ride when you down again I see all the hate i'm just pilling it
I put in time for this you don't work hard like me then you don't shine like this
Yeah you know nigga I got me a dime lil bitch I see you old hoes steady spying and shit
Light from my watch probably blind a bitch spark up a blunt when I drive the whip
Nobody gone ride when you down again I see all the hate i'm just pilling it
My bread getting long the clip hold a hunnid incase you was wondering
Pull that bitch out and then let off some rounds nobody won't know
Cause they thought it was thundering and I won't let a day go by when I'm not pilling it
Hop in my whip bitch I'm smoking the loudest I keep a pistol right under my mattress
Think that I'm lacking come try I'm a clap some shit I ain't with all that caping shit
Hustling backwards can't tell em shit did my best tryna salvage it
Hope he ain't mad I pull up in the fastest whip
Tried to put you own but you wasn't having it
Hearing yo ego in all yo decisions listen to the captain and niggas who with you
I made the decision I'm bout all my paper whatever I'm with to get it
My brothers my witness swerve with no limit I'm tryna cruise benzes
I get it don't spend it stack that shit up till that shit hit the ceiling
You won't understand my life until you live it
Therefore you know where yo take your opinion
She say you a real nigga I gotta admit
I know babygirl I'm like one in a million
I won't take no days off till I own the building that shit getting realer
I put in time for this you don't work hard like me then you don't shine like this
And you know nigga I got me a dime lil bitch I see you old hoes steady spying and shit
Light from my watch probably blind a bitch spark up a blunt when I drive the whip
Nobody gone ride when you down again I see all the hate i'm just pilling it
I put in time for this you don't work hard like me then you don't shine like this
Yeah you know nigga I got me a dime lil bitch I see you old hoes steady spying and shit




Light from my watch probably blind a bitch spark up a blunt when I drive the whip
Nobody gone ride when you down again I see all the hate i'm just pilling it
