[English]
I'm no saint but I'm Saint Laurent steppin'I'll make my own way, I don't need no favors
You can't be my friend and my hater
You niggas gotta pick a side before you get shaded
You too, we'll paint your face up
Got the big head?
We'll tear your lace up
Good morning, I don't need no makeup
Your ass and your titties fake
Without it tip dry
My niggas gotta eat
I set them all at the table
Said we ain't gon' do no beef
We gon' bake potatoes
They thought I left, thought I put my cape up
Bet on yourself, nigga, put your cake up
Got the middleman out, get your paper
I can feel the hate
I know that they hate us
I been distant, I know that they missin' me
How can you bring up rappin', don't mention me?
How many months, you gotta be kidding me
You is a fool if you think I ain't going down in history
I won't fold, I won't fold, I won't fold, I won't bend
Can't no amount of paper make me turn on my friends
Through my veins, it's in my bones, it's in my heart, and on my skin
I be with some shooters that don't like to be on film
They can't fuck with you or your bestest friend
Breaking for the baby style, whining
He like it when I ride it
She said she wanna be our side chick, yeah
He like it when I ride it
She said she wanna be our side chick, yeah
Saint Laurent steppin'
I'm no saint but I'm Saint Laurent steppin'
