What?!
What?!!
Look?
Okay, let's cut the crap
I'm straight gangsta - forget the rap
I only stick with that 'cause my ma don't wan' see me flip the crack
And I'm quick to click and spit the gat
Sip the Coke mixed with Jack - Calico, clip to match
Like: where them cats who trippin' at? - Point niggas out
'cause right now I'm full of that spinach that'll knock Lennox out
The Mack-10 is out, as well as the gauge and the pump
You turn the page on the newspaper, see my face in the front
I lock it down for all my niggas that still caged in the dump
So if I come, nigga, just save me a blade and a pump
I'm raised in the slum where the bad grow
Unlike no other, I'm real (??) like bag 'Bauds
I stash O's in the drawers of my trash hoes
I flash dough at the laws when they pass slow
I mash low in a stolen hot RAV-4
The Macks blow bullet holes for my cash flow
Is that so?
(Hook [Lil Wayne])
I don't think you realize what's happenin', dog
That lil' boy's 'bout to come 'round here blastin' at y'all
If you don't get the hell when he swervin' by
That's your issue - God bless ya - you deserve to die
[Lil Wayne]
Look,
Which one of these niggas playin' with me?
I'ma strap up and slam his parent's street
When I blast, bullets spit faster than MC Hammer beats
I be damned if he get a chance to sleep
I clamp the magazine in my gun and cut his family tree
I flash the piece at your lil' woman and make her dance for me
Then jam the freak with a broom - blood leak from her panty crease
There has to be some explanation for this insanity
Yeah, y'all niggas faker than that boy (fill in the blank)
Now give me the dank
Niggas claim they want war when I suggest you live in a tank
What's your kid gonna think?
Come home and find your wig in the sink
I dig in the bank, and pull out eighty, then cruise to Haiti
For fifty G's I get ten ki's and straight out weight it
I lock my area down - you can ask these boys
They know Wheezy got more white than the Backstreet Boys
Never catch me (??) without them plastic toys
It get drastic, boy
Niggas that's askin' for it
Wheezy, nigga
It's Wheezy, nigga
Who? Wheezy, nigga
It's Wheezy, nigga
(Hook [Lil Wayne])
I don't think you realize what's happenin', dog
That lil' boy's 'bout to come 'round here blastin' at y'all
And if you don't get the hell when he swervin' by
That's your issue - God bless ya - you deserve to die
[Lil Wayne]
I hope y'all niggas understand that I ain't playin' or jokin'
Bust shots, make you think the Grand Canyon open
Leave a busta bandana smokin' from hot hollows
Me and my niggas flip your coke, then cop hot hoes
Two pistols, desperado gun busta
Pump one under your chest and knock a lung from ya
Hung under them killers and duck the pigs
And all of our diamonds shine, and our trucks are big
And, nigga, I don't really care if I don't sell a million quick
'cause right now I'll quit and go and sell a million bricks
I sticks to what I love, and that's the street
And stay away from what I hate, and that's police
And I keep a trigga somewhere on me to start blowin'
And leave a nigga somewhere lonely with his heart showin'
When we all knowin' that Wheezy have never been fake
The metal will spray and let the bullets tear up your face
Who is Wheezy, nigga?
Who is Wheezy, nigga?
Wheezy, nigga
Lil Wheezy, nigga
(Hook-2x [Lil Wayne])
[Lil Wayne]
Say, I don't think you realize what's happenin', dog
That lil' boy's 'bout to come 'round here blastin' at y'all
[Lil Wayne (talking)]
It's Wheezy, nigga - Lil Wheezy, nigga
Don't tangle it, nigga
It's time to step down, ya heards me

You turn the page on the newspaper, see my face in the front
My face is on the front page of the newspaper
I lock it down for all my niggas that still caged in the dump
I represent and protect my friends who are still trapped in a bad situation
So if I come, nigga, just save me a blade and a pump
If I arrive on the scene, my friends should prepare a sharp weapon and a gun for me
I'm raised in the slum where the bad grow
I grew up in a poor and dangerous neighborhood
Unlike no other, I'm real (??) like bag 'Bauds
I am unique and authentic, like a rare type of designer handbag
I stash O's in the drawers of my trash hoes
I hide drugs in the underwear of my unimportant women
I flash dough at the laws when they pass slow
I show off my money to the police officers who are driving too slowly
I mash low in a stolen hot RAV-4
I drive a stolen hot RAV-4 SUV while staying low-key
The Macks blow bullet holes for my cash flow
My guns help me make money by creating bullet holes in my enemies

If you don't get the hell when he swervin' by
If you don't leave when I show up and start acting wild, it's your own fault
I clamp the magazine in my gun and cut his family tree
I load my gun and prepare to kill the family of anyone who opposes me
There has to be some explanation for this insanity
There must be a reason why I am behaving so violently and erratically

You will return home to find your hairpiece in the sink after I attack you

My friends know that I have more drugs than the famous music group Backstreet Boys
It get drastic, boy
The situation can easily become violent and dangerous
Me and my niggas flip your coke, then cop hot hoes
My friends and I steal your drugs and then spend the money on attractive women
Two pistols, desperado gun busta
I am carrying two guns and am willing to use them recklessly
Pump one under your chest and knock a lung from ya
I will shoot you in the chest, causing a lung to collapse
Hung under them killers and duck the pigs
I associate with dangerous murderers while evading the police
And all of our diamonds shine, and our trucks are big
My friends and I have expensive jewelry and large vehicles
And, nigga, I don't really care if I don't sell a million quick
I don't care if I don't become famous and successful quickly
'cause right now I'll quit and go and sell a million bricks
But if I can sell a million dollars worth of drugs, I will quit music and focus on that instead
I sticks to what I love, and that's the street
I am dedicated to the lifestyle and culture of the streets
And stay away from what I hate, and that's police
I avoid and dislike police officers
And I keep a trigga somewhere on me to start blowin'
I always carry a gun to start shooting if necessary
And leave a nigga somewhere lonely with his heart showin'
I will shoot and kill someone, leaving their exposed heart as a symbol of my ruthless behavior
When we all knowin' that Wheezy have never been fake
Everyone knows that I am always authentic and true to myself
The metal will spray and let the bullets tear up your face
My gun will fire rapidly, causing bullets to damage and disfigure your face
Say, I don't think you realize what's happenin', dog
Again, I don't think you fully understand the dangerous situation at hand
That lil' boy's 'bout to come 'round here blastin' at y'all
Someone is planning to attack and shoot at us very soon
