Yeah-yeah (Yeah-yeah)

Yeah, yeah

I don't trust niggas, I ride by myself

All I need is my strap and my armor (Buck, buck)

All I can see is these fuck niggas

It must be somethin' they put in the water (Buck, buck, buck)

I quit my job at McDonald's and built an empire

And now I'm a gold mine (Hey)

Nothing was handed, I dreamed it, I did it

Been wantin' this shit for my whole life (Buck, buck)

Move, move, move, get out the way, nigga bossed up (Buck)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, I just got laid, I'm gettin' sauced up

Ayy, ayy, ayy, gotta go up 'til I motherfuckin' lift-off

Wasn't supposed to make it past 21

Nigga, I can't believe I done made it this far (Hey)

You know you too lit when you stretchin' these bands

You know you on top when your enemies fans (Buck)

You know you too blessed when they think you a threat

Try and aim for your neck but I never be scared

Niggas on drugs, I was packin' all the work

Couldn't find a spot, we was trappin' out the church

Boost mobile phones, have me waitin' for the chirp

Fresh to death, I was waitin' for the hearse

Casket fresh, had the weight goin' crazy (Ooh)

Show up to your door like the Avon lady

I could be the GOAT but the hate won't save me

If niggas hate me, then they hate Tom Brady

Go against the grain, you gotta be brave

She don't like me, then she gotta be gay

To take me down, then you gotta be paid

There ain't enough money I gotta be paid (Woo, woo, woo)

I don't trust niggas, I ride by myself

All I need is my strap and my armor (Buck, buck)

All I can see is these fuck niggas

It must be somethin' they put in the water (Buck, buck, buck)

I quit my job at McDonald's and built an empire

And now I'm a gold mine (Hey)

Nothing was handed, I dreamed it, I did it

Been wantin' this shit for my whole life (Buck, buck)

Move, move, move, get out the way, nigga bossed up (Buck)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, I just got laid, I'm gettin' sauced up

Ayy, ayy, ayy, gotta go up 'til I motherfuckin' lift-off

Wasn't supposed to make it past 21

Nigga, I can't believe I done made it this far (Hey)

Can't touch me when I'm in my zone

Came too far to sell my soul

When you gon' give me the respect I'm owed?

When you gon' watch my dreams unfold?

When I'm on tour, I just wanna be home

When I'm at home, I just wanna be alone

Me and my niggas still share the same clothes

When you got brothers, man, anything goes

Pull a bitch hair like clickbait, ayy (Woo)

ADHD, can't see straight, ayy (Yeah)

Work a lil' job, I was still outside like

Please will you listen to my mixtape, huh?

Please will you listen to my mixtape, ayy?

Still can't listen what a bitch say, ayy

Niggas switched up, that's a mistake, ayy

Never thought I'd see this day, ayy (Buck, buck)

I don't trust niggas, I ride by myself

All I need is my strap and my armor (Buck, buck)

All I can see is these fuck niggas

It must be somethin' they put in the water (Buck, buck, buck)

I quit my job at McDonald's and built an empire

And now I'm a gold mine (Hey)

Nothing was handed, I dreamed it, I did it

Been wantin' this shit for my whole life (Buck, buck)

Move, move, move, get out the way, nigga bossed up (Buck)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, I just got laid, I'm gettin' sauced up

Ayy, ayy, ayy, gotta go up 'til I motherfuckin' lift-off

Wasn't supposed to make it past 21

Nigga, I can't believe I done made it this far (Hey)
