[English]

Aye, aye day, pay day

Counting a quarter million

I was a poor civilian

I used to stress about a bitch

Now I ignore the feelings

Now I don't record the feelings (no)

Now I'm gon' ball for healing (woo)

Now I got money from floor to ceiling

I am for sure resilient (okay)

She give me that brain (oou, brain)

I am for sure she brilliant (okay)

Aye, I put a resort on billin'

This ain't at all the Hilton (not at all)

And you don't want more, we ign'ant

And we resort to killing (uh, grrrrrrrt)

Uh, ain't no superheroes, bitch we all the villains (all the villains)

We fuck all the opinions (fuck all the opinions)

I'm takin' all the womens (all the womens)

Put on her long Brazilian

Fuck her from wall to window (from wall to window)

The money was callin', callin'

Had to abort the mission (I know)

Oou, aye day, pay day

Just blew a half a brick (okay)

On some new dapper shit (okay)

Brand new Gucci Star (brand new Gucci Star)

Had to go crash the shield (had to go crash the shield)

Champagne in a glass and shit

On some real classy shit (on some real what?)

Aye, and we don't lack for shit

My shoota's gon' blast for shit (uh grrrt)

Uhn, she ain't gotta ask for dick

I fuck her on accident

Aye, I like a conceded bitch

She like that I'm arrogant (okay)

Uh, still on that trapper shit

Two blocks in the cabinets (bop, bop)

Uh, got a bank account in my mattresses (okay)

So, when I fuck my bitch

It's a little more passionate (I love you)

Uh, I'm icing her out, she icing me out

Free style get shit (okay)

Uh, Put Tito on a pistol and shot go boom

Straight maxed that shit (boom-boom, grrrrt)

Aye, aye day pay day

Counting the price of a Lamb' (counting the price of a Lamb')

I should go buy me a Lamb' (I should go buy me a Lamb')

When I'ma flip this, if I'm gon' spend this

I'ma go buy me some land (I'ma go buy me some land)

Oh, are you a stand-up guy? (What)

Well, pussy, you can die where you stand! (Bop-bop)

Better think twice lil' man

Ain't talk this big lil' ice my man (this big ice)

Oh, you can't afford this? (No)

This rich price lil' man (this rich price)

She shakin' her ass like dice in her hands

(Shake that ass, shake that ass)

Aye, her nigga pulled up to the club

Now she outside fighting her man (damn)

Now I feel bad 'cause I was really planning on piping her, damn (damn)

We know these hoes is loose

They be all taped up, man (they be all taped up)

O.G got me fried, feel like my mind in a pan (whoosh)

Uh, counting this guap in my hand

Tellin' my guys we gotta expand (oouu)

Aye, it's aye day pay day (aye)

(Count it up, count it up, count it up-)

Aye day pay day (count it up, count it up, count it up)

Aye day pay day

(Count it up, eh)
