Aye, Ramy, light up another blunt, bruh

...

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more, no)

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more)

Been a long time since you came around and called my phone

Now you settled down

You ain't playin' around, and you comin' home, nah, nah, nah

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more, no)

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more)

Been a long time since you came around and called my phone

Now you settled down

You ain't playin' around, and you comin' home, nah, nah, nah

I saved you, way back (way), hey Jack (hey)

'Rari, speed past (woo), shoot, I'm like Steve Nash

Bitch, I'm sorry (yeah), faked and you played me (play), betrayed me

Now I'm strong, I don't need you, hoe (no), you can save that (no)

Pulled around on fanny (skrrt), I was fuckin' around with a dancer

And I didn't open the door (no) and my old lady ain't know (ha)

It's play 'til I die (yeah), and this play 'til I go (yeah, yeah)

I'm finna rent a vacation home, work hard, she can't work no more

Mad about this and we argue about that (argue)

And even though I was gettin' money, you'd complain about my track (my track)

And the same thing I was goin' through, you gon' feel that right back

And your conversation is bullshit, and your perfume is wack

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more, no)

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more)

Been a long time since you came around and called my phone

Now you settled down

You ain't playin' around, and you comin' home, nah, nah, nah

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more, no)

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more)

Been a long time since you came around and called my phone

Now you settled down

You ain't playin' around, and you comin' home, nah, nah, nah

You've been gone some time now (gone some time), you should stay away (yeah)

I don't like your attitude, get it out my face

Longitude and latitude, I'm movin' out my space

You knowin' that I'm mad at you, you do it anyway

She a eater (yeah), bustin' out the backdoor (uh-huh)

I'm trappin', you get what you asked for (uh)

I get it in with no passport (uh)

That's a pack in that Jansport, hopped in that Jag Sport

Bad bitch, ain't average, but damn sure I will ignore

Tell me somethin' or tell me nothin'

You come around town like you always stuntin' (yeah)

Pulled up in that blue Jeep in your driveway, like "Beep, beep" (yeah, yeah)

Comin' down that boulevard, shootin' niggas like Chief Keef (uh-uh)

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more, no)

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more)

Been a long time since you came around and called my phone

Now you settled down

You ain't playin' around, and you comin' home, nah, nah, nah

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more, no)

I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more (no more)

Been a long time since you came around and called my phone

Now you settled down

You ain't playin' around, and you comin' home, nah, nah, nah

Key Grammar Structures

• I don't wanna talk no more, we don't even talk no more

  ➔ Double Negation / Emphatic 'no more'

  ➔ In informal English, "no more" is often used with another negative verb (like "don't") to emphasize the negation, creating a double negative. While not standard in formal grammar, it's common in colloquial speech to mean "not anymore" or "not any longer". Here, "I don't wanna talk "no more" means I absolutely do not want to talk anymore.

• Been a long time since you came around and called my phone

  ➔ Ellipsis of 'It has' with Present Perfect

  ➔ "Been a long time" is a common informal shortening of "It has "been a long time"". The Present Perfect tense is used here to describe a duration of time that started in the past and continues up to the present moment, often followed by a "since" clause indicating when the action began.

• You ain't playin' around, and you comin' home

  ➔ Informal Negation 'ain't'

  ➔ "ain't" is a colloquial contraction that can replace "am not," "is not," "are not," "has not," and "have not." In this line, "You "ain't" playin' around" means "You are not playing around." While common in informal speech, it is generally avoided in formal writing.

• I was fuckin' around with a dancer

  ➔ Past Continuous Tense

  ➔ The Past Continuous tense ("was "fuckin' around"") is used to describe an action that was ongoing at a specific time in the past. It emphasizes the duration or the continuous nature of an action.

• I'm finna rent a vacation home

  ➔ Informal Future 'finna'

  ➔ "finna" is a colloquial contraction of "going to," commonly used in informal speech to express an intention or a future action. It functions similarly to "gonna."

• And even though I was gettin' money, you'd complain about my track

  ➔ Concessive Conjunction 'even though'

  ➔ "even though" is a concessive conjunction used to introduce a statement that makes the main statement seem surprising or unexpected. It means "despite the fact that" or "although."

• you'd complain about my track

  ➔ 'would' for Habitual Past Actions

  ➔ The contraction "you'd" here stands for "you "would"". "Would" is used to describe actions that happened regularly or habitually in the past, often implying a repeated behavior or routine, similar to "used to."

• You knowin' that I'm mad at you, you do it anyway

  ➔ Colloquial Present Participle for Reason/State

  ➔ In informal speech, especially in some dialects, the present participle (verb-ing) can be used without an auxiliary verb (like "are" or "is") to imply an ongoing state, a reason, or a concurrent action. Here, "You "knowin'" means "You are knowing" or "Even though you know," indicating a reason for the subsequent action.

• I'm trappin', you get what you asked for

  ➔ Noun Clause with 'what'

  ➔ "what you asked for" is a noun clause. It functions as the direct object of the verb "get." "What" introduces a clause that refers to an unspecified thing or things, meaning "the thing(s) that."

• You come around town like you always stuntin'

  ➔ 'like' as a Conjunction (meaning 'as if')

  ➔ In informal English, "like" can be used as a conjunction meaning "as if" or "as though," introducing a clause that describes how something appears or happens. Here, "like" implies that the person acts "as if" they are always showing off.

• you should stay away

  ➔ Modal Verb 'should' for Recommendation/Advice

  ➔ The modal verb "should" is used to give advice, make a recommendation, or express what is considered correct or appropriate. Here, it suggests that staying away is the advised course of action.
