[English]

Yeah someone says my spoon’s filthy (I come from shitty background)

I don’t care, when I grab MIC I beat them who got golden spoons

And lash out, there are many rare steaks not cooked properly

I’ll be chewing over and over at the star’s dinner

World business core

Number 1 favorite for casting sold out

Not many of this class, savor the value

With this good scent, stinking is a foul

MIC MIC BUNGEE

MIC MIC BUNGEE

BRIGHT LIGHT forward

You thought I was going down but I’M FINE sorry

My bad BILLBOARD

My bad WORLDWIDE

I’m sorry mom your son is so killing it

Should I chip in? For the duties you missed as a good child

In our concert we never have no empty seat

I DO IT. I DO IT. You’re a tasteless RATATOUILLE

If you’re so jealous and it hurts then file a lawsuit

SUE IT

Did you see my bag?

Did you see my bag?

It's hella trophies and it's hella thick

What you think bout that?

What you think bout that?

I bet it got my haters hella sick

Come and follow me follow me with your signs up

I'm so firin' firin' boy your time’s up

Keep on and runnin' and runnin' until I catch up

HOW YOU DARE

Another trophy

My hands carry 'em

Too many that I can't even count 'em

MIC Drop MIC Drop

Foot foot watch it your mouth mouth you watch it

Somebody stop me

I'm bouta pop off

Too busy you know my body ain't enuff

MIC Drop MIC Drop

Foot foot watch it your mouth mouth you watch it

Baby watch your mouth

It come back around

Once upon a time

We learnt how to fly

Go look at your mirror

Same damn clothes

You know how I feel

개행복 (Damn Happy)

How many hours do we fly

I keep on dreamin' on the cloud

Yeah I’m on the mountain

Yeah I’m on the bay

Everyday we vibin'

MIC Drop Baam

Did you see my bag?

Did you see my bag?

It's hella trophies and it's hella thick

What you think bout that?

I bet it got my haters hella sick

Come and follow me follow me with your signs up

I'm so firin' firin' boy your time’s up

Keep on and runnin' and runnin' until I catch up

HOW YOU DARE

Another trophy

My hands carry 'em

Too many that I can't even count 'em

MIC Drop MIC Drop

Foot foot watch it your mouth mouth you watch it

Somebody stop me

I'm bouta pop off

Too busy you know my body ain't enuff

MIC Drop MIC Drop

Foot foot watch it your mouth mouth you watch it

Haters gon' hate

Players gon' play

Live a life, man

Good luck

Don’t need to see you anymore. This is the last farewell

Don’t got no words to tell. Don’t even apologize

Don’t need to see you anymore. This is the last farewell

Don’t got no words to tell. Don’t even apologize

See, you end up just like that

Just so fizzy, we’re like cola

Your cornea gets shocked when it sees us

Quite quite stylish s- s- stylish
