The Largest
Letra:
[English]
(Tony Coles, Tony Coles)
Ay (let the band play)
Safe to say I'm the biggest, the largest
Been steppin' on shit since my mama stayed
In them apartments, regardless
My daddy told me keep the heat
Even when I'm in foreigns, I'm heartless
'Cause these niggas is hating on me
Just because I'm the biggest, the largest
The biggest, the largest
30K on my wrist just for hard times
These niggas just mad 'cause they bitch in my archives
Jordan came back, throw the .45
If you play, then you lay right there by yo' own kind
Pour up a four in a 'Loco
Tell 'em, "Run this bitch back like Soso"
Got this rap shit here in a chokehold
Did a show out in Austin, shoutout to Bobo
Moved out the trenches, now we look how we live
Told my BM to furnish the crib
Walk out the mall with some shoes for the kids
Deposit a check, shit, my bank full of Ms
Paid up my rent now I'm up for the year
The view look crazy from here
What I paid for some dogs, could've bought me veneers
Texas piece on my neck could've bought yo' career
Safe to say I'm the biggest, the largest
Been steppin' on shit since my mama stayed
In them apartments, regardless
My daddy told me keep the heat
Even when I'm in foreigns, I'm heartless
'Cause these niggas is hating on me
Just because I'm the biggest, the largest
The biggest, the largest (ay)
Stuffin' Cali plug weed in a blunt
Let my lil' brother roll him a Dutch
My lil' boy get whatever he want
Madam T don't be askin' for much
Pourin' lean on the nuggets of Runtz
Spill the rest of that drank in a punch
Left wrist on some "I had to stunt"
Right wrist, I just did it because
600 the label, you know we comin'
Tell them niggas they ain't taking nothin'
Standing on business, we shooting or punchin'
Hatin'-ass niggas, go get you some money
I just got off of tour, finna go on another one
Album dumb, finna drop me another one
Couple of Ms, finna run up another one
Super Bowl rings, shit, I had to go double 'em
Safe to say I'm the biggest, the largest
Been steppin' on shit since my mama stayed
In them apartments, regardless
My daddy told me keep the heat
Even when I'm in foreigns, I'm heartless
'Cause these niggas is hating on me
Just because I'm the biggest, the largest
The biggest, the largest, aye
