[English]

Step-step-step up in the party like my name was bad bitch

All these haters mad because I'm so established

They know I'm a beast

Yeah, I'm a fuckin' savage

Haters you can kill yourself

In my space shuttle and I'm not coming down

I'm a stereo and she's just so monotone

Sometimes it's just me and all my bottles all alone

I ain't coming back this time

I can't believe it

It's so amazin'

This club is heatin'

This party's blazin'

I can't believe it

This beat is bangin'

I can't believe it

(I can't believe it)

Hey, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Yeah, yeah, I'm feelin' it now

Check it out, check it out

Step-step-step up in the party like my name was Mr. T

All these hating naggers ain't got nathing on me

Honestly, I gotta stay as fly as I can be

If you will get really, you get super OG

Honeys always rush me 'cause I'm fly-fly-fly

Dumb ones, they can't touch me 'cause I'm floating sky high

I stay nigger-rific you don't need to ask why

You just got to see with your eyes

I can't believe it

It's so amazin'

This club is heatin'

This party's blazin'

I can't believe it

This beat is bangin'

I can't believe it

(I can't believe it)

Hey, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Yeah, yeah, I'm feelin' it now

Check it out, check it out

Check this motherfucker out

It got me in the club-in the club just rocking like this

Oh, oh, oh

Da done done

The sun done

Yep, the sun done

Came up, but we still up in dungeon

Da done done

Yep, in London

Competition, why yes I would love some

How the fuck they getting mad cause they run-done?

Mad 'cause I'm getting money in abundance?

Man, I can't even handle all these hundreds

Duffel bag every time I go to Suntrust

I leave the rest just to collect in-trust

I mean interest

Fuck my nemesis!

Exclamation, just for emphasis

And I don't sympathize, 'cause you a simple bitch

I just pop up on these hoes on some pimple shit

And put the iron to your face y'all wrinkled bitch

This is mega nigger

U-u-ultra niggmatic-matic-matic-matic

Ma-ma-matic

Oh, we just had to kill it

We on the radio, hotter than a skillet

We in the club making party people holler

Money in the bank means we getting top dollar

I'm a big baller, you a little smaller

Step up to my level you need to grow a little taller

I'm a shot caller

Get up off my collar

You a chihuahua

I'm a Rottweiler

I can't believe it

This so amazin'

I can't believe it

This beat is bangin'

I can't believe it

This so amazin'

I can't believe it

(I can't believe it)

Hey, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Check it out, check it out

Yeah, yeah, I'm feelin' it now

Check it out, check it out
