[English]

Five thousand pounds in a tractor, I'ma get 'em off

Workin' on the avenue, young Pluto came up servin' raw

Fuck the Constitution, bitch, I grew up in the drug zone

All this prostitution, hoe, you know a nigga love gone

(Metro)

(Can I trust you?)

(Why don't you trust me?)

(Metro Boomin want some more, nigga)

Yeah

I don't give a fuck how good she look, ain't trustin' none of the tings

I got white girls on me, Avril Lavigne

When I smell the smoke, nigga, I turn to gasoline

Underground like I'm UGK, but I'm Supreme

We ain't spoon-fed, nigga, we came up servin' fiends

Hit my target every time, it's like I'm shootin' a beam

Ridin' Bentley presidential, I'll give a nigga his wings

The street made me a king

Five thousand pounds in a tractor, I'ma get 'em off

Workin' on the avenue, young Pluto came up servin' raw

Fuck the Constitution, bitch, I grew up in the drug zone

All this prostitution, hoe, you know a nigga love gone

Smack a hoe, then pass her to my brother, then we toast

Thought I would come in Lamborghini, whipped up in the Ghost

Millionaire, young nigga had done made it off the porch

Million-dollar 'Rari, got it parked beside the Porsche

Go digital, sittin' in the fish bowl, super sport

VVSs invisible, shine on my arms

Racks got me gone, got me feeling King Kong

Trappin' out the house, keep some fire in the slums

High skills, poppin' pills, then we solo for 'em

Shorty them on a drill, they 'bout to go out and perform

Hop in the Phantom, then I skrrt away

Millionaire cover, what else I'ma say?

I don't give a fuck how good she look, ain't trustin' none of the tings

I got white girls on me, Avril Lavigne

When I smell the smoke, nigga, I turn to gasoline

Underground like I'm UGK, but I'm Supreme

We ain't spoon-fed, nigga, we came up servin' fiends

Hit my target every time, it's like I'm shootin' a beam

Ridin' Bentley presidential, I'll give a nigga his wings

The street made me a king

I just blew a check, could've bought a mansion

Ice all white, Marilyn Manson

Get it out the mud, started spendin'

Sent that boy to Maryland, Steve Francis (swish)

You ain't shit until you become a big dog

You ain't shit until you become a big dog (yeah, yeah)

You ain't shit until you become a big dog

You ain't shit until you become a big dog, yeah

(Why don't you trust me?)

I don't give a fuck how good she look, ain't trustin' none of the tings

I got white girls on me, Avril Lavigne

When I smell the smoke, nigga, I turn to gasoline

Underground like I'm UGK, but I'm Supreme

We ain't spoon-fed, nigga, we came up servin' fiends

Hit my target every time, it's like I'm shootin' a beam

Ridin' Bentley presidential, I'll give a nigga his wings

The street made me a king

(I knew we couldn't trust them)

I don't give a fuck how good she look, ain't trustin' none of the tings

I got white girls on me, Avril Lavigne

When I smell the smoke, nigga, I turn to gasoline

Underground like I'm UGK, but I'm Supreme

We ain't spoon-fed, nigga, we came up serving fiends

Hit my target every time, it's like I'm shootin' a beam

Ridin' Bentley presidential, I'll give a nigga his wings

The street made me a king
