[English]

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

Ladies order up the champagne, a whole lot of it

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

(Only trill niggas I know)

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

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

(30s in the city movin' slow)

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

(Straight up)

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

(Only trill niggas I know)

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'

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

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

(Only trill niggas I know)

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

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

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 who'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
