[English]

Bandana wrapped, wrapped 'round your head

The bandana wrapped 'round your head

Fuck niggas, they're shit

Ain't nobody triller than me

Ain't nobody triller than Scott

Ain't nobody trill man, I'm takin' their spot

30s in the city movin' slow

$3, 500 for the coat

Only real niggas keep you float

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Ladies order up the champagne, a whole lot of it

Painkillers, they got back pain, know you gotta love it

Tens out in N-Y, they in my hallways, I gotta lobby of 'em

Up and down with Chase, Monday nights, we made a hobby of it

Still down with the same dogs, man they never loved us

Gave my niggas all gold chains to remind me of it

We're still holding that old thing, tryna rob me of it

One time for the trill bitches that'll let me touch it

I'm papi though, they get it poppin' with me when I'm out in public

Flyin' through, I got a young 'Yonce with an Iggy on her

Me and Metro do the same drugs, got a lot of it

All these cups and damn, all these hoes, these niggas up to somethin'

Touch down out in H-Town, there it might get ugly

Its trill niggas wit trill niggas, a whole army of 'em

I run the check up, I'm a hot nigga, don't tell my 'countant on me

Free Rowdy Rowdy, free Bobby Bobby, them the Shmurda homies

Good lord!

30s in the city movin' slow

$3, 500 for the coat

Only real niggas keep you float

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

...

Dro with me, drank with me, lean like I'm Clark

Copping a Wraith then I throw it in park

You niggas from Mars, you ain't got no heart

I know lil one gon come with that A and that R

(Only trill niggas I know)

I know lil one gon come with that A and that R

I'm counting I'm dripping I'm fiending

I'm not from this planet, I was abandoned

Trill niggas real niggas popping them pill niggas

I stack up a mil nigga like its a lil nigga

This for the one that's gon' load up the k for me

This for the ones that ran off and didn't wait on me

This for the ones that ran off and didn't wait on me

This for you bitch you ran off and did weight for me

(Only trill niggas I know)

Hood nigga fuck all that red carpet shit

Hood nigga I fuck a red carpet bitch

I put a Rolls and a Royce on my wrist

You can smell promethazine when I piss

I pray to God he bring me Actavis

Ain't nobody triller than Metro ain't nobody triller than Scooter

Hop on the private I do it, take all the mollies I do it

The Bentley put up with no mileage I do it

These Styrofoams with me legitimate

I'm proudly down these Percocets

We just want to be stoners lately, I've been on on on

This money an option, this weed is an option, this lean is an option

Your bitch is an option, her bitch is an option

I send them through auctions

You paying that price for that punanay

This gold on my neck is a new Grammy

30s in the city movin' slow

$3, 500 for the coat

Only real niggas keep you float

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

30s in the city movin' slow

$3, 500 for the coat

Only real niggas keep you float

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

My bathtub the size of a swimming pool

Backstroke to my children room

Maybach in the living room

I spent racks on these tennis shoes

Niggas know what I'm finna do

Time for me to put the mink up

Forgiattos on a Brinks truck

My favorite rapper drove a pink truck

I do shit that you dream of

I was born with a mean mug

I was born with nappy hair, drinkin' breast milk out a lean cup

Tity Boi's my alias

Real niggas my radius

Trill niggas on the song with me

If she bad as hell I'll pay the babysitter

In a black Mercedes with her

Doin' about 180 with her

I was born a hustler paraphernalia in my baby pictures

Resident all eloquent, leather shit in my front yard

TV by my swimming pool, got the bitch like a sports bar

Chevelle with a new motor, got the bitch like a sports car

Ya my name is Tity Boi, I don't fuck with hoes that wear sports bras

Crib bigger than your imagination

Call the trap house the gas station

Call momma's house the Jag station

Emoji sad faces

Look at these niggas

I need to buy pocketbooks for these niggas

30s in the city movin' slow

$3, 500 for the coat

Only real niggas keep you float

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

30s in the city movin' slow

$3, 500 for the coat

Only real niggas keep you float

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Ain't nobody triller than me

Ain't nobody triller than Scott

Ain't nobody trill man I'm takin' their spot

We ride on a yacht

Ain't nobody triller than Metro, ain't nobody triller than Scooter

Ain't nobody triller, I knew it, ain't nobody triller, we knew it

Pour up an Ace out on niggas, don't play 'round like Janice and Judy

(Only reall niggas keep it float)

Say fuck all the rumors say fuck all the rumors

(Only trill niggas I know)

Say fuck all the rumors say fuck all the rumors

(Only trill niggas I know)

Say fuck all the rumors say fuck all the rumors

30s in the city movin' slow

$3, 500 for the coat

Only real niggas keep you float

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know

Only trill niggas I know
