To see if she'll fuck I never asked if she was taken, 'cause honestly That type of shit don't matter to me Just when we was leavin' out the goddamn door Some trick-ass nigga fronted me bout the whore I let the fool file with a diss or two But the nigga kept pushin' the goddamn issue So I pulled out the 9mm And bust his ass in the head, you could see the Blood gushin' out his goddamn skull He played hisself, now his ass gettin' drugged I was charged with aggravated assault But before I got off his ass I made him read these Nike's (Oh my goodness!)
