I'm like "I think they just might be scared of me now"
But it's all good, niggas wrong every day, niggas wrong every day
Goin', goin' to LA where I'm tryna get high and do a song every day

I would rather stack it up and put it in a safe
Then peek inside the safe and see I'm runnin' out of space mothafucka that's grindin'

Nigga I'm grindin' for all my shit

I would rather stack it up and put it in the safe
Than peek inside the safe and say I'm running out of space
Believe that

School, find another oo-wop
Tell them niggas cool out
'Cause it can be a mohafucking shoot-out
Kidnap a nigga, beat the truth out
Moms pick the suit out

'Cause bitch I worked too hard for this new house, I'm grindin'

Swag, swag!




Swag, swag!
In the new house, we got the swag
