[English]

Layin' on my back now, lay another track down

Brought the black cats out, bad luck

If and when I snap now, try not to get capped now

I'll bring the black cats out, now you fucked (fuck)

Watchin' for the pigs while I ride real slow

Smoking thraxx, read my tats from the backseat (thraxx)

Why you throwin' shade like you finna phase me?

You a ho-ass bitch, need a Maxi (bitch)

Pad for your pussy blood dripping down your skinny's

I could serve you for some 20s, but my raps free

Young bitch, I got plenty, on my bottle it say, "Rémy"

On my belt, that shit say, "Fendi and the back green" (clean)

Got me talkin' 'bout my clothes, girl (clothes, girl)

When I fall, won't you pick me up?

I'm talkin' 'bout my old girl

When I call, she don't pick it up

My head hurt from the drugs

It's somethin' in the bud, man, I need a new plug (new plug, ayy)

I feel it in my veins (oh)

All my bitches dumb 'cause they give me all they brains

Put me on the map now, I could hold the map down

See me in the background, rolling up (yeah, yeah)

I don't gotta rap loud, bitch, I got that trap sound

Hold on to my strap with the Cobra Clutch

Watch out for the bitch in the black Range Rove'

Drivin' fast while she listenin' to Max B (what, what?)

Got the tats on her ass and the black ski mask in the back

If you tryna get yo' ass beat

One for the money, blow, two for the show

My flow go perfect with a sad beat (sad beat)

Everywhere I go, all I ever see is snow

In the summertime, pussy make me happy (make me happy)

Now they're hundred percent, that's crazy

...

That's the real music, man

Come back home, motherfuckers see how real it is, man

He said like, "Damn, man" like, you know

'Cause the world is so big, you feel me? And you like

I wanna spread so much love, you know?

It's like, man, I got a lot of love to spread, and

I just want for the world

Got me talkin' 'bout my clothes, girl (yeah)

You feel me, I want the world to hear it, you know?

So it's like, I'm cryin' for everybody, man

Won't you pick me up? (Yeah)

And for real love man, 'cause

That's where the music comes from man

I'm talkin' 'bout my old girl (yeah)

It's hundred percent love, man, you know?

When I call she don't pick it up (yeah)

This is, this where we at, man, this is the home, man

My head hurt from the drugs

This is where motherfuckers started somethin'

It's somethin' in the bud man, I need a new plug (yeah)

You know, nothing's promised, man

I feel it in my veins

So we just doin' what we do, man

Shouts out to Based fam, you know everybody that believe in me

Everybody that's holdin' it down, you know, uh
