(DJ Durel)

Gotta flex a lot

I was broke as hell, walking around selling CDs in the parking lot

Now my girl wants five racks for a new bag, are you rich or not? (Rich or not)

P- good, had to pay for it, let me knock it out like the Juggernaut (juggernaut, yeah)

Let me stop (hold on)

Flexing (flexing)

Wake up and brush my teeth, wearing a flooded Cuban necklace (ice)

I was broke, couldn't even buy Waffle House, my pockets were empty (pregnant)

Hold on (hold on), let me count it, gimme a second (beep)

Rich as hell

Bad bitch, gotta duck 'em all, I've slept with them all, but I can't kiss and tell (yeah)

Baby mama's constantly trippin' on me

Why is she hating on me? Tell her, "Go to hell" (go to hell)

Young nigga, I've made it big, the money is so tall I could go to jail (yeah)

Yeah, it was just me and Durel

Yeah, I had to grind for real

I had to ride the train before I saw a million

Wake up, I put on new Chanel (yeah)

Left the house, couldn't leave my scale behind (uh)

Left wrist looking like a hundred-and-twelve

Mama was mad, couldn't stand the smell (mama)

Too many racks, left a paper trail

Fuck the police, I would never snitch (fuck 'em)

No deposit, ran a check, and I bought a Maserati (skrrt)

Start my own label, not Yo Gotti (Yo Gotti)

I knock it out, she calls me, "Big Papi" (Big Papi)

Flexing, so many diamonds, can't forget my bank account used to be on empty

Look at my Cuban links, got me walking around with your bank account on me

Flexing (flexing)

Wake up and brush my teeth, wearing a flooded Cuban necklace (ice)

I was broke, couldn't even buy Waffle House, my pockets were empty (pregnant)

Hold on (hold on), let me count it, gimme a second (hold on, beep)

The ocean, I'm out at sea, hanging my AK by the side

The bitches make noise, rolling in a zigzag

Lots of stacks, thank God, they already know I'm out here—

It's not a Phantom, it's a Cullinan; I'm covered in gear, and it's not from Iraq

The Aventador beast, a mansion like Playboy's

Everything a young boy dreamed of one night

Some say I'm a playboy

Fuck it, no, no, no

I don't even know how many bitches I've had

This girl in the truck, I'm taking her along, who cares?

Ready to get it going

Flexing (flexing)

Wake up and brush my teeth, wearing a flooded Cuban necklace (ice)

I was broke, couldn't even buy Waffle House, my pockets were empty (pregnant)

Hold on, let me count it, gimme a second (beep)

Flexing

Wake up and brush my teeth, wearing a flooded Cuban necklace

I was broke, couldn't even buy Waffle House, my pockets were empty

Hold on, let me count it, gimme a second
