[English]

Ayoozee, what are you telling them?

Liko, Liko, yeah

I just spent another milli in a jeweller.

All the diamonds on me got me feeling cooler.

Lit nigga don't rock Frank Muller.

This molly got me fucking on a cougar.

She's probably your cue in the hoover.

I rent a VR and I will fill it with shooters.

My brother told me I got this, you focus on money, I'll go through the movers.

They shouldn't be too much to say.

When we told them you can't wait.

I was like damn, hey, you're paid.

When I found out my neighbor was hate.

I love my nigga to the grave.

But he got some real weird ways.

I quickly can come back from strays.

But we can't come back from faith.

So whatever you need go take your break.

Told you that ain't shooting that's fades.

Suicidal thoughts, forced minds are made.

Survived the trenches, scars and grazes.

Roses for her, fuck the daisies.

All the Ms that I done made.

Can't get my brother out the grave.

They cue on a boat right by the lake.

Jakes trying to find a little rodie with a dre.

Thinking in my head about the fucking DNA.

I need a lady and MDMA.

Said MJ, no lie Kelme.

You know we still do it even though it's pain.

I'll take what you got cuz I got what it takes.

Red dot under the barrel, it's holding with tapes.

This guy earns so much money on the floor, we need to rank.

I was pouring up to block the pain.

I was popping pills to block the pain.

I was drinking yak to stop the pain.

Now it's 2024, I'm still in pain.

I think only my dog blocked the rain.

Shop till we drop her and shop her again.

Traces made, you're a straight perfect mantae on the way.

I'm gonna call this perfect mantae pain.

Back to the jeweller.

Molly Lambeth, photo cooler.

She bad, I'll blow her.

She bad, I'll blow her, I'll move.

This ain't no paragon, Frank Muller.

But all when I ain't never been a loser.

Life's a game, I take a chance, bet it all right at the dealer.

I was mill, whip it out of plastic.

I was broke, made a stretch like elastic.

Man of bitch ain't bad, she ain't catfishing.

Four phones, I call my counselor.

All the racks on me, bitch can't count it.

Tell my bitch to the jeweller, she drowning.

Go crazy the city needs counseling.

I'm balling, nigga, check's not bouncing.

Couple calls off her MN and call me.

Couple niggas I still roll with the army.

Rich nigga wrapped in the Armani.

Told me which one of these bitches are nasty.

My color white, I'm feeling polite.

She think my type Amarachi.

Just act like you're blind if you're preying on my eyes.

You better not let my dog see.

Dirty dogs, they do the dirty job and we paying them.

We gon' hop on a jet to go Amsterdam.

Lost shit, I was carrying them.

You sat with a pack trying to do it by eye.

What the fuck are you waiting on?

The money come, if you make the play, my nigga, just stay on them.

Richie plain from the jeweller.

She can't stop dick, I'ma sue her.

I got ice cream with Perk on a plate.

I told my bitch come sooner.

I told my lady don't worry about size.

This shit longer than a ruler.

Big sticks, put seven inside.

I've been regrouped, I'm a truer.

I just spent another milli in a jeweller.

All the diamonds on me got me feeling cooler.

Lit nigga don't rock Frank Muller.

This molly got me fucking on a cougar.

She's probably your cue in the hoover.

I rent a VR and I will fill it with shooters.

My brother told me I got this, you focus on money, I'll go through the movers.
