(Your boy getting fat now)
(I got the fat stomach and laid up, eating good now)
(Other girl all stressed out, my girl got the fat ass)
(Shorty mad, pulling her hair out)
Come through the block, in the brand new Benz
Knowing that me and that nigga ain't friends (ok, girl)
Yeah, what I did was wack
But you don't get a nigga back like that (yeah)
Bouncing around, when I'm up in these streets (yeah)
Knowing that me and that nigga got beef (pardon me if I lost my voice) (ok, girl)
(I just get off-stage) yeah, what I did was wack
(I'm into town right now) but you don't get a nigga back like that (sidebar), no
I'm high-powered, put Eva Mendes to sleep
Yo, pardon, that bitch been on my mind all week
But back to you, MAC gloss chick, you're way fit
How you have everything in this world and waste it
Prince told me it'll be okay, I'm so sick like Ne-Yo say
I'm laid back, like Neo, so, I holla back at this Creole ho
She from the N.O., but she never told me "N-O" so
We at the spot to chill, where the food get grilled
She ordered the Kobe beef like Shaquille O'Neal
Second I walked in, the whole room got still
I don't know how to put this, but I'm kind of a big deal
And she conceited, she got a reason
She got her hair did, she got her weave in
And I'ma sweat that out by the evening
You, I don't sweat that now, I got a new
Come through the block, in the brand new Benz (yeah)
Knowing that me and that nigga ain't friends (snipe) (ok, girl)
Yeah, what I did was wack (uh-huh, yeah)
But you don't get a nigga back like that (me and my ward came out)
Bouncing around, when I'm up in these streets (uh-huh)
Knowing that me and that nigga got beef (tell 'em son, yeah)
Yeah, what I did was wack (this is how we do)
But you don't get a nigga back like that, no
Oh girl, I can't believe you zoned out
Played me for this dude, nice shoes and a bottle of coast out Mont'
I'm that Don Wilson
First one to put you up six suites in that Resident Hilton
Mink coach, colorful stones and big stacks
Yeah, I was fucking, but you don't get me back like that
Causing me grief, you know me and homie had beef
Now you got me losing my mind, out up in these streets
You flamingo, showing your true colors
Heard y'all was ducking down low when you see my brothers
But it's all good, I move from ex to next
Got the baddest little chick to sign off of them checks
Fat bubble, her body's like one of the best
But I don't need to say nothing, ask Kanye West
She eye candy, smoother than Godiva chocolate
And you mad 'cause you played yourself, it's your fault, trick
Come through the block, in the brand new Benz (uh-huh)
Knowing that me and that nigga ain't friends (ok, girl)
Yeah, what I did was wack (I told you)
But you don't get a nigga back like that (I'm a big goons, you see)
Bouncing around, when I'm up in these streets (yeah)
Knowing that me and that nigga got beef (wanna play games) (ok, girl)
Yeah, what I did was wack
But you don't get a nigga back like that, no
Shot through the heart, the girl caught me
Shot through the block, with him shot gun
He lucky, I ain't stop, copped the shotgun
Killah type cat, you better be glad, I'm not one
Had a couple stars up in my sky
She was my moon and my sunshine
Dude ain't even fly, he just some guy
You blamed yourself, I'm done, peace, one
Come through the block, in the brand new Benz
Knowing that me and that (yeah) nigga ain't friends (you see) (ok, girl)
Yeah, what I did was wack (she one of those knucklehead)
But you don't get a nigga back like that (females locked, and I'm tryna be)
Bouncing around, when I'm up in these streets (actin' like they gettin' it, all revenge y'all)
Knowing that me and that nigga got beef (ok, girl) (takin' it further is what it really is)
Yeah, what I did was wack (you know what I mean?)
But you don't get a nigga back like that, no (you playin' yourself)
Come through the block, in the brand new Benz (you know what I mean?)
Knowing that me and that nigga ain't friends (ok, girl) (don status, girl)
Yeah, what I did was wack
But you don't get a nigga back like that (we gonna had the whole light now)
Bouncing around (word out), when I'm up in these streets (and when I see money)
Knowing that me and that nigga got beef (ok, girl) (I'ma hang him upside down in the sun)
Yeah, what I did was wack
But you don't get a nigga back like that, no (but not because of you neither, believe that)
It's real
Yeah
Got my swagga back and all that
Be a G.O.A.T for life, yo
Yeah, tattoo off your back and all that
Take that off for you though
