[English]

Get my people out them chains nigga

I mean handcuffs, time to man up

Put my hands up? Fuck you sayin' bruh

'Cause I'm a black man, in a Phantom

Or is it 'cause my windows tinted?

Car cost three hundred thou' and I blow Indo in it

You mad 'cause your daughter fuck with me on spring break

Well, I'ma fuck her 'til the springs break

Yeah, roll another one 'cause I'm winning

In my four-door looking real photogenic

Gentleman attire, in threads that won't expire

I'm in a class of my own, my teacher got fired

Money getting long, pussy rate keep rising

Versace outfit cost me three thousand

From the P houses, did it from the wee hours

Selling that chicken no lemon pepper, no sweet and sour

First you get the power, then you get respect

I'm getting so much money I can buy ya bitch

Take it how you wanna, if you wanna take it

I like clubs where all the women working naked

Fell in love with a waitress what the fuck I'm thinking

Bought that hoe a ring, it was for her pinky

Uh, that's pimpin' that's slick

Got a bottle of cologne that cost more than your rent

Fuck y'all mad at me for

Got a black card, and a black Phantom

With a white bitch in Idaho, I do the same thing in (Montana)

Got a thick bitch in Atlanta, got a redbone in the Chi

Got two chains, they two-tone, two hundred racks, no lie (true)

Ali Bomaye! Ali Bomaye!

I'm 'bout to rumble in the jungle in these new Kanye's

Ali Bomaye! Ali Bomaye!

My lawyer threw them gloves on and beat another case

Fuck y'all mad at me for, 'cause my belt got two G's on it

Her bag got two C's on it, my daughter's stroller got D's on it

Free Big Meech, Free Boosie and C-Murder

Like New Orleans, like Baltimore, come to Compton you'll see murders

And my AR see murders, that's beef nigga no burgers

I'm insane and you Usain, nigga better turn on them burners

Got coke swimming in that glass jar, bitch go turn on them burners

Got dope to sell in this hotel, no half price, no retail

You a bitch nigga, no female, I smack niggas, Sprewell

I'm on the block like D12, I got the white, no D-12

Like a little nigga in Africa, I was born totin' that K

And that's real shit, no Will Smith and no Nona Gaye

But they yellin'...

Ali Bomaye! Ali Bomaye!

Thank God that a nigga seen another day

Ali Bomaye! Ali Bomaye!

Got a chopper and a bottle fuck it let 'em spray

I take my case to trial, hire the Dream Team

Robbie Kardashian, Johnnie Cochran, I seen things

I dream big, I think sharp

Inhale smoke, Hawaiian tree bark

Humble yourself, you not a G, keep it one with yourself

Run to niggas for help, favors I keep one on the shelf

I got rifles with lasers, swing it just like the majors

Hit you right above navel, now you swimming in pavement

Gold medals on my neck, I call it Michael Phelps

Hoes settling for less, I call 'em bottom shelf

Niggas tough on them blogs and never did nothing at all

On the road to the riches, bitches not tagging along

Unless it's ass in a thong, hit that ass and I'm gone

Disrespect my nigga Boss and I'm flashin' the chrome

I'm waving the TEC, Tity sprayin' the MAC

Extendos in the back, gonna lap

Got a bitch that look like Laila Ali sittin' in my lap

Got a call from Skateboard, pick 'em up at LAX

Speaking skateboards, where Tune at?

Fuck with him, I'll break a skateboard on a nigga back

2 Chainz!

Skateboard on a nigga track

No lie, "No Lie" already got a plaque

Mama got a house, daughter got accounts

Just to think a nigga like me started with a ounce

Bad bitches and D-boys, we bring 'em out

If them niggas pussy, we douche 'em, we clean 'em out

This the voice of ghetto intelligence

If you got work, go to work, don't work at your residence

For presidents

Word to Muhammad, that triple beam is heaven-sent

Riding through the jungles in that motherfuckin' elephant

That's a gray ghost, with the ears on it

Swimming through the hood like it got fins on it (tell 'em)

You know I got that work on the foreman grill

Weigh the motherfuckers in, made another mill'

Got a nigga feeling like Cassius Clay

Thrilla in Manilla, nigga want it whip his ass today

Ali Bomaye! Ali Bomaye!

Thank God that a nigga seen another day

Ali Bomaye! Ali Bomaye!

Got a chopper and a bottle fuck it let 'em spray

Key Grammar Structures

• You mad 'cause your daughter fuck with me on spring break

  ➔ Omission of "to be" verb in informal contexts

  ➔ "You mad" is an informal way of saying "You **are** mad". This omission of the auxiliary verb is common in casual speech and some dialects.

• I'm in a class of my own, my teacher got fired

  ➔ Informal Passive Voice (Get-passive)

  ➔ "got fired" is an informal alternative to "was fired" (the standard passive voice). It often implies that something happened to the subject, sometimes with a sense of consequence or suddenness.

• Well, I'ma fuck her 'til the springs break

  ➔ Informal Contractions and Colloquialisms

  ➔ "I'ma" is a colloquial contraction of "I am going to", indicating future action. "'til" is an informal shortening of "until". These are common in spoken English.

• Thank God that a nigga seen another day

  ➔ Non-Standard Past Tense/Past Participle Usage

  ➔ In standard English, the past simple of "see" is "saw", and the past participle is "seen". Here, "seen" is used as the past simple, which is characteristic of some informal dialects like African American Vernacular English (AAVE).

• I'm insane and you Usain, nigga better turn on them burners

  ➔ Implied "had better"

  ➔ The phrase "nigga better turn on them burners" implicitly means "nigga **had better** turn on them burners," which expresses strong advice, warning, or a command with a sense of urgency.

• Run to niggas for help, favors I keep one on the shelf

  ➔ Object-Subject-Verb Inversion for Emphasis

  ➔ In standard English, the sentence would typically be "I keep favors on the shelf." By placing the object "favors" at the beginning, the speaker emphasizes what they keep, rather than the act of keeping.

• Disrespect my nigga Boss and I'm flashin' the chrome

  ➔ Conditional Clause without "if" (Imperative + "and" + Result)

  ➔ This structure implies a conditional relationship: "If you disrespect my nigga Boss, then I'm flashing the chrome." The imperative verb ("Disrespect") followed by "and" directly states the consequence of that action.

• Swimming through the hood like it got fins on it

  ➔ Informal "like" as a Conjunction

  ➔ In informal English, "like" is often used as a conjunction to introduce a clause of comparison, similar to "as if" or "as though." Standard English would typically use "as if it had fins on it."

• Like a little nigga in Africa, I was born totin' that K

  ➔ "born" + Present Participle

  ➔ This construction describes an action or state that has been present since birth or an inherent characteristic. "toting" (carrying) implies that the act of carrying a K (AK-47) was something the speaker did from a very young age, almost as if it was innate.

• Money getting long, pussy rate keep rising

  ➔ Ellipsis (Omission of "is" in Present Continuous)

  ➔ "Money getting long" is an abbreviated form of "Money **is** getting long." This omission of the auxiliary verb "is" in the present continuous tense is common in informal speech and certain dialects, making the language more direct and concise.
