My real time, and look at the sky
You’re better off staying away from Miky, man, you’re feeling the heat
I don’t trust anyone, appearances can be deceiving
Trujillo had a lot of courage, and they even hunted him in a skirt
You catchin’ that?
You give off a bad vibe
Fish without scales
Don’t believe Tony’s talk, everyone knows you don’t roll like that
And you are just a frog
There are long ones, short ones, and medium ones for you
Don’t believe Tony’s talk, everyone knows you don’t roll like that
They say 5G in their glow
But with just one signal, I can take down the internet
I slam ‘em in two by two, I got an R Sport
That puts ‘em down three at a time
80 for the AP, I got more dolls than cartoons
So much chain around my neck
All these babies frozen, who’s got ‘em?
Now I’m dressed in designer
Me on TV and you on the sofa
What weighs you down
Is that my bag is fat and yours is empty
I’m about to eat 2 cookies
For dinner and another for breakfast
Better get yourself more secure than Wells Fargo
We’re gonna insure you like State Farm
I’m on a roll, I got half the release
I got ‘em puffin’
These envious guys are sick with envy
They get worse when they try to front on me
And they’re missing paperwork
They barely even go out there
I never see them
I’m with a golden beard, not at the Aloft
In the business, walking more than Raymond
You give off a bad vibe
Fish without scales
Don’t believe Tony’s talk, everyone knows you don’t roll like that
And you are just a frog
There are long ones, short ones, and medium ones for you
Don’t believe Tony’s talk, everyone knows you don’t roll like that
Round drums like Ferrell Madison
In the George, taking down the guys from Washington
Death will photograph you in Rolliston
And we’re gonna make a post about you like Robinson
There’s no static on the button of my Glock
I’m posted with the hanger like Camila
Blessings in diamonds in Fatima’s hand
And you’re another one who’s gonna die in a Cadillac
7 digits, we can talk about a deal
If I snatch your soul, hollow point to kill
I can go viral torturing you in a reel
Life is like a park and they enter the field
I’m Jordan with the retro, listening to 50
Handling duty-free taxes
We control the traffic in your lane
If you make a fake, it’s gonna be expensive
You guys are snoring because you’re with Fulano
And Fulano is snoring because he’s with us
We’re gonna leave you like an orphan’s crock
Tortured and damn, all full of holes
Man, here we’re brothers or we kill each other
We don’t believe in anyone, not one or the other
Bring out all the sticks, we’re at war here
And I’m with the F in the passenger seat
I never miss a verse
Don’t talk to me, I don’t converse with anyone
Whenever they see me, I’m full of diamonds
And next to me, always a Miss Universe
I have so many women I don’t even count them
More friends subtract and enemies add
We’re moving more kilos than a stadium full
Of a sumo wrestling match
I can’t see the hour on the Rolex because of the shine
They look at me bad but don’t pull the trigger
According to you guys, you’re breaking things, man
And the only thing you have broken is your pocket
A million sneakers for just two legs
10 cars in the garage and none are rentals
Can-Am, KTM-690
I’m like Lindor giving 30-30
You give off a bad vibe
Fish without scales
Don’t believe Tony’s talk, everyone knows you don’t roll like that
And you are just a frog
There are long ones, short ones, and medium ones for you
Don’t believe Tony’s talk, everyone knows you don’t roll like that
When I take out the pencil, what drips is fire
You’re my garment, you can ski
They want to hunt me and I don’t let them
I didn’t let them and I’ll never let them
I don’t have enemies but there are always many hidden
It’s normal, I have to take care of myself
If I take out the akimbos for a walk
They won’t come back
I don’t know what failing is
Since I was a kid, I learned to be real
And to demand respect
Snoring me is lethal
I don’t measure strength, man
My presence is felt upon arrival
They are very easy, brother
After I hit them, I use them for cover
They’re gonna fall and it won’t be from overtime
Anyone who comes here to mess with us
I messed up for mine
Nobody gave me a damn, man
Josea all night
I don’t snore much, I always deliver
If I want to, I steal the spotlight
These guys show off their manhood
But only when they’re online on social media
What are they gonna do when we find you
And we cut off your wifi
