If I run down, it's a drum round (Grrt)

All you gonna hear is gun sounds

I got fifty-two shots in this Glock

And an infrared up on an opp if he let off

Trey Suvy hold a chop

Yellow tape where it pop, knock his head off

Load up the chop, it go dumb

See me and they run

Silencer up on the gun

Will shoot you for nun'

Trey Suvy, boy playin' with the toolie

I bet he'd make a movie (Woo, woo)

Pop dripped up in Louis

Couple hundred in some jewelry

Spent fifty-five on her booty

Touch her and shootin'

AP, spicy

I bust a check in my Nikes

Am I a killer? Might be

Two tone, icy

Talk to me nice, or don't talk at all (Huh?)

I make a call and it's war

Talk to me nice, or don't talk at all (Huh?)

I make a call and it's war

I'm off that Adderall
