WHATS POPPIN – English Lyrics

• By: Jack Harlow

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

What's poppin'? (Pooh, you a fool for this one)

Brand new whip just hopped in (just hopped in)

I got options (oh Lord, Jetson made another one)

I could pass that bitch like Stockton (it ain't nothin')

Just joshin'

I'ma spend this holiday locked in (ooh)

My body got rid of them toxins (mmh, mmh)

SportsCenter, top ten

I could put the ball in the end zone

Put a bad bitch in the friendzone, ooh

This shit sound like an intro

Jetson, give me that tempo, ooh

Told Pooh he a fool with this shit (he a fool)

Told her don't let her friends know (don't)

In the 'Ville and I move like a don (don)

Eating fettuccine at Vincenzo's

Me and my 'migos got that free smoke

On the West Coast, yeah, I'm talking 'bout pre-rolls (pre-roll)

Dark haired bitch and she look like Shego (she do)

Hometown hero, feeling myself, can't murder my ego (can't do it)

She heard of my deep stroke

She said, "Babe, does it hurt when I deep throat?" (It does)

Certified freak hoe, hang around us and she learnin' my lingo

Back then, wasn't worried 'bout me though

In the gym tryna work on my free throw, goddamn

Spending money at the club like Sam's (cha-ching)

Yes, ma'am

She a lil' freak on cam (that's facts)

But she don't put this on the 'Gram (nah)

Lil' boys tryna diss on the 'Gram (ay)

I can't switch on the fam (bitch)

Shit's hot, hit the switch on the fan (hit that shit)

This where my head is (listen)

I feel resentment from every direction

Even some homies be wearing expressions

I be discouraged from sharing my blessings (damn)

We used to share a connection

Now it just feels like it's wearing and stretching

I'm getting real sick of taking advice

From people that never could stare at reflections

Somewhere in there is a lesson

Y'all ain't evolvin', it's very depressing

I'm at the club with the basketball team

Me and the Cardinals are sharing a section (facts)

Gotta cherish the present

I'm drinking water and wearing protection

Got a career and I'm very invested

Some people call it a scary obsession (ooh, period, but)

I like to call it a passion

I can't be sitting relaxin' (nah, I can't)

PG, we getting some traction

I'm at the venue, it's packed in (packed out)

I'm digging her accent

I got a B.B. Simon belt on me and she tryna get it unfastened

That's my type of distraction

That's my type and she Latin (that's facts, ooh)

Got my own flow and I'm 'bout to get a patent

Brand new sheets for the bed, they satin (soft, real soft)

Y'all wasn't tuned in back then (nah)

My swag, they keep jackin' (keep on jackin')

I ain't doin' no verse, quit askin' (quit askin')

What's poppin'? (Pooh, you a fool for this one)

Brand new whip just hopped in (just hopped in)

I got options

I could pass that bitch like Stockton (it ain't nothin')

Just joshin'

I'ma spend this holiday locked in (ooh)

My body got rid of them toxins (mmh, mmh)

SportsCenter, top ten
