[English]

All these jewels that I spit

Fools will get chipped

Can't change the game cause there's rules to this shit

When you follow suit whole crew will get rich

I'm the proof check the motherfucking views in this bitch

Yeah, as I cruise in my 6

Need a 100K a show that's my muse when I spit

I'm the type to make the news when I trip

Prolly be my downfall a short fuse on a crip

And I'm working on my temper put some jewels on my wrist

Cause I'd rather be that nigga on a cruise with my bitch

Boat dock, only food is a fish

On the coast to Greece nigga where the views is the shit

Follow me home come and view the abyss

Take a walk with me take your tool just to take a piss

It ain't safe tell a nigga get a grip

Hard headed niggas gotta take a bag to take a shit

Where if you let a nigga mark you out

You labeled as a bitch

Can't take a strike back so niggas ain't taking shit

They see you with it prolly take a nigga shit

If you got that on your record prolly take you for your chick

Disrespect you infront of your kids

Treat you like the broad that you is

That's on God and my kid

Imma have you gone with the wind

Stop them games where they start begin

Lion heart in my brim

And nigga it get dark in the den

Question is homie with the sharks can you swim?

Smell fakes, smell pussy, smell fear

Killer instinct we can tell what's pretend

I be getting to the money

Ain't a damn thing funny

You can see this cash all on me

I'll be on it till I'm dead and gone, dead and gone

After that then I'm heading home, heading home

I be getting to the money

Ain't a damn thing funny

You can see this cash all on me

I'll be on it till I'm dead and gone, dead and gone

After that then I'm heading home, heading home
