[English]

Told you I'd play with the key, right

Told you I'd play with the key, right?

Nah mean

Rich on the beat one time

I put more rings in my fingers

I got her white like topanga

Walkin' in trap with my banger

A mansion I don't got no neighbors

Pocket stuff got a check just to fuck it up

Ran it up they been hatin' I don't give a fuck

My dick in her mouth a retainer

I pull out the strap with a laser

The Goyard got racks you a hater

I got her white like topanga

Run it up, woke up with 50 racks, my pockets stuffed

I got a Glock like a ranger, walk up on me you in danger

Skrt, I was broke til' I went to vert

Bend it over, that's yo bitch, I'm liftin' up her skirt

You cuffing' a whole of top, I'm bagging queens on the block

Rick owens it cost me the guap

Ain't fucking I just want the top

I put more rings in my fingers

I got her white like topanga

Walkin' in trap with my banger

A mansion I don't got no neighbors

Pocket stuff got a check just to fuck it up

Ran it up they been hatin' I don't give a fuck

I put more rings in my fingers

I got her white like topanga

Walkin' in trap with my banger

A mansion I don't got no neighbors

Pocket stuff got a check just to fuck it up

Ran it up they been hatin' I don't give a fuck

If a pussy nigga hatin' I don't give a fuck

If a pussy bitch hatin' I don't give a shit

I'm just tryna' duck the police nigga crying shit

I'm just tryna' duck them people in them crown vics

Pour a four then slow, woah

Told that bitch put her clothes up

i8 got the doors up

Sandwich on me, nigga cold cut

Recording on the back of the bus I done poured up, (Swear)

Make the lil bitch jump like a frog yeah nigga I told her

I put more rings in my fingers

I got her white like topanga

Walkin' in trap with my banger

A mansion I don't got no neighbors

Pocket stuff got a check just to fuck it up

Ran it up they been hatin' I don't give a fuck

I put more rings in my fingers

I got her white like topanga

Walkin' in trap with my banger

A mansion I don't got no neighbors

Pocket stuff got a check just to fuck it up

Ran it up they been hatin' I don't give a fuck

Your main bitch the one you hate

I need that lean like a patient

I know that you said I wouldn't make it

I walk on Chanel, got on laces

Give a fuck about magazines, the pistol it came with magazines

Rich The Kid on the beat

Bend her over, make her skeet

I got the ticket to fuck it up

They hating' on me I don't care, Fendi socks and underwear

In love with the man in the mirror

Hold up ran up a sack then brought it to the trap

We forever on the map

Breaking my wrist bring it back

The Mazi paint it matte black

I put more rings in my fingers

I got her white like topanga

Walkin' in trap with my banger

A mansion I don't got no neighbors (I don't!)

Pocket stuff got a check just to fuck it up

Ran it up they been hatin' I don't give a fuck

I put more rings in my fingers

I got her white like topanga

Walkin' in trap with my banger

A mansion I don't got no neighbors

Pocket stuff got a check just to fuck it up

Ran it up they been hatin' I don't give a fuck(Yeah!)
