[English]

Ayy

Look out the window, what do I see?

A couple yachts, they got some thots that trot the seven seas

Got CCs and Louis Vs out of every season

Card me please, Forgis make 'em stop breathin'

Mustard just sent the new Ferrari, I just might cop me one

They can't be rich, they just tryna make a carbon copy of 'em

Countin' up this new money, every single day I'm home

I ain't worried 'bout what they be on

You do what you can, I live a lifestyle on the daily, homes

Bracelets on my right wrist, I got 80 on, my fragrance strong

My bitch on top, we're tapin', she don't ride it with no lace on

The lean poured, the Ace gone, the double R, the gray stone

The inside blueberry and the outside is Akon

Look out the window, what do I see?

A couple yachts, they got some thots that trot the seven seas

Got CCs and Louis Vs out of every season

Card me please, Forgis make 'em stop breathin'

It's hard to stomach that

I'm out running laps and I ain't comin' back

Maybach jumpin' like a jumpin' jack off the mumble rap

Where Roddy at? I be chasin' chicken, had to cut the fat

Only wear it one time, did a show, forgot to cut the tags

Another day, another seal, another deal, another bag

Was nineteen, chartin' up the jets, I'm in another class

Niggas couldn't even tell, I was out gettin' cash

Graduated from the streets, I ain't gotta bring up my past

Look out the window, what do I see?

A couple yachts, they got some thots that trot the seven seas

Got CCs and Louis Vs out of every season

Card me please, Forgis make 'em stop breathin'

Look out the window, what do I see?

A couple yachts, they got some thots that trot the seven seas

Got CCs and Louis Vs out of every season

Card me please, Forgis make 'em stop breathin'
