[English]

Gangsta Freddy cuz I know I'm not famous

But got everybody staring at me

I'll be pulling out cars, cuz my block roll hard

And the trap like a money machine

Make em believe make em believe

Make em believe make em believe

I don't know no one like this, I'm so icey

I might not know how to bail, but bitch I know I got my money right

Get your hands up!

Blodda show my ass Mr. never picked my pants up

Big watch and bracelet looking like a fed handcuff

Bitch I'm dead gang chain swing when I stand up

I'm from that Southside where shit ain't gone braver street nigga

I ain't trying to be no basketball player

My dog in the feds cuz he clutch choppers

The Actress, gun cocka done dotta

Game shova in the thumbnail take it

And we still whole pounds like a dumbell rack

I know Roger Butler, the real Roger Butler yard full of Pitts

Aka big brother

Who be getting money?

Hello world I'm the man outchea!

My name rang everywhere I stand outchea

My name rang everywhere I stand outchea

Gangsta Freddy cuz I know I'm not famous

But got everybody staring at me

I'll be pulling out cars cuz my block roll hard

And the trap like a money machine

Make em believe make em believe

Make em believe make em believe

I don't know no one like this, I'm so icey

I might not know how to bail, but bitch I know I got my money right

Got some fly rides, go to jail trying to shine

I don't even drive mine. Interception!

My pack got intercepted

My wide receiver see them loot pass fumble protection

Curb where we see him curb where we leave them

Back down up under the words on the breach.

How about you want me dead the Gloc go to clicking

Made a promise to my hood

Won't let the block go unassisted.

Penn'd bitches to the prison guard

Love this children, god mother still suffers with a drug addition

Bumpin Travida Gates like Jeezy

Straight drop no whip I ain't like Jeezy

84 and a half equal 36 ounces quick

You do the math 63 off of 2

That's stuff I'm in the bag

Only thing you ever cut was another nigga hair.

Gangsta Freddy cuz I know I'm not famous

But got everybody staring at me

I'll be pulling out cars cuz my block roll hard

And the trap like a money machine
