Yeah, '88 shit
Let's go, uh-huh
The most valuable, bars that'll clap you
Black British rockers with diamonds in the tassels
Cascade kids rock more glass and'll splash you
My gooned-out project got a Tony Stark statue
I'm like Gandhi on dust
Got young niggas swingin' they blade
Them chain-swingin' cats remind me of us
We got old money, old twenties, gold mouthful of fronts
We in the Swiss Alps fuckin' mad snow bunnies
Syringe rap, forty bundles of smack
I seen lawyers get strung, they started off with the crack
The plug sent me ten bricks, I sent all of 'em back
So they sent me half of a hundred, had to get 'em on that
I got my Cam'ron gun, rubber grip with the pink nozzle
Skate routes, dirt bikes, movin' like Chapo
Bulletproof Spalding googles, cop killer hollows
Fuck around and get the whole shell like a taco

Ghost is global, classic, soulful
Teddy Pendergass on wax with the nasty vocals
Penthouse, doorknobs drawers and the floors is opal
Diamond safe rooms, the indoor pool is purple
Superb like Bird and Magic
A real deep thinker with silk words that's smoother than virgin fabric
And them two-tone gummies, I'm the first to have it
We don't fuck on bearskin rugs, just Persian rabbits
We mad nice, cigar and a glass of water
Got excited when the plug made it past the border
Flood to Florida, straight down to Bora Bora
We ate rotis for eighteen days like we was foreigners
