[Music]🎵(Mello made it right!)🎵
🎵Nigga, I down bad, now I’m on a jet for real🎵
🎵Got all this ice on me, baby, told my Patek to chill🎵
Sippin’ on this codeine, my baddest b*tch is on X pill🎵
🎵I want a couple million without a record deal🎵
🎵Got 25 thousand on me,🎵

🎵Nigga, I was really on the floor, then I woke up in a jet🎵
🎵Ain't never had to dodge no n****,🎵
🎵I just might cop Demon🎵
I’m shoppin’ at Neiman’s, ballin’ every season🎵
🎵Feelin’ like I’m dreamin’, shinin’ every weekend🎵
🎵 All they know is that I was broke, 🎵
🎵 then I got a brand new coupe 🎵
🎵 Louis V’s on my shoes, 🎵
🎵 f**kin’ all my bitches by the twos🎵
🎵First time in V12, she was hangin' out the roof🎵

🎵She just popped an X pill, 🎵
🎵 wanna see how the ‘Vette feel. 🎵
🎵Fiji on my Rollie make him 🎵
🎵 wanna have some s*x for real. 🎵
🎵Tennis chain, my neck on chill, 🎵
🎵 I ain’t have to go get no deal. 🎵
🎵Last month I spent a hundred thousand on the closet🎵
🎵I bought the penthouse just to handle ménages🎵
🎵Got the new crib, my n**** fresh out, he kept it solid🎵
🎵20 bands on me, can’t even fit inside the wallet🎵
🎵B*tch, I’m ballin’, 13 on me like I was Harden, yeah🎵
🎵N****s know Ricchy, I’m lit, 🎵
🎵 might take my ride through the 6. 🎵
🎵I’ve been mixin’ my designers, 🎵
🎵 n****, I’m fly as a b*tch! 🎵
🎵I just talk about my lifestyle, I don’t write this sh*t🎵
🎵Ever since that jail cell opened up, 🎵
🎵 I let these diamonds hit. 🎵
🎵Nigga, I was down bad, now I’m on a jet for real🎵
🎵Got all this ice on me, baby, told my Patek to chill🎵
🎵Sippin’ on this codeine, my baddest b*tch is on X pill🎵
🎵I want a couple million without a record deal🎵
🎵Got 25 thousand on me, 🎵
🎵 when I’ve been ridin’ in a Phantom. 🎵
🎵Got all designer on me, b*tch, 🎵
🎵 I’m so fly it don’t matter. 🎵
