Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Uh-uh, fuck that (Fuck that)

8 doobies to the face, fuck that

12 bottles in the case, nigga, fuck that

2 pills and a half-weight, nigga, fuck that

Got a high tolerance when your age don't exist

Man, I swear my nigga trippin' off that shit again

Pick him up, then I set him in cold water

Then I order someone to bring him Vicodin

Hope that take the pain away

From the feeling that he feel today

You know when you part of Section .80

Feel like no one can relate

'Cause you are, you are, a loner, loner

Marijuana, endorphins, make you stronger, stronger

I'm in the house party trippin' off

My generation sippin' cough syrup like it's water

Never no pancakes in the kitchen

Man, not one our lives is caught up

In the daily superstition that the world is 'bout to end

Who gives a fuck? We never do listen

Unless it comes with an 808

(A melody and some hoes)

Playstation and some drank

(Technology bumping soul)

Looking around and all I see

Is a big crowd, that's product of me

And they probably relatives

Relevant for a rebel's dream

Yep, her president is black, she black too

Purple label on her back, but that tab is light blue

She take it straight to the head

Then she look at me, she got A.D.H.D

8 doobies to the face, fuck that

12 bottles in the case, nigga, fuck that

2 pills and a half-weight, nigga, fuck that

Got a high tolerance when your age don't exist

Like woah-oh-oh, woah

(Don't got a limit, just gimme some more with it)

(Don't got a limit just gimme some more with it)

(They always told me A.D.H.D did it)

And then she started

And then she started feelin' herself

Like no one else in this apartment

Beg your pardon

Oh, I rap baby, how old are you?

She say 22, I say 23

Okay then, we all crack babies

Damn, why you say that?

She said, where my drink at?

I'ma tell you later, just tell your neighbors

And the police relax

I stood up, shut the blinds

Closed the screen, jumbotron

Made to the back, where she reside

Then she said, read between the lines

Yep, hope that I get close enough

When the lights turn down

And the fact that she just might open up

When the Nuvo start to drown her body

And I, know the both of us really deep in the mood now

It's nothing we can do now

Somebody walked in with a pound

Of that Bay Area kush

She looked at me then looked, at it

Then she grabbed it

Then she said, get it understood

You know why we crack babies

Because we born in the 80s

That A.D.H.D crazy

8 doobies to the face, fuck that

12 bottles in the case, nigga, fuck that

2 pills and a half-weight, nigga, fuck that

Got a high tolerance when your age don't exist

Like woah-oh-oh, woah

(Don't got a limit just gimme some more with it)

(Don't got a limit just gimme some more with it)

(They always told me A.D.H.D did it)

You can have all my shine

I'll give you the light

Double cup, deuce, four, six

Just mix it in Sprite

Ecstasy, 'shrooms, blow, dro, hoes

Whatever you like

You can have all my shine

I'll give you the light
