When you doin' when they can't now (can't now) When you on and they ain't now (they ain't now) They heard you livin' in a bank now So they came 'round (That's how the story goes) When you chill but you can't trust (can't trust) Claim they gave they all but it ain't much (but it ain't much) Plenty hoes but it ain't love 'cause they switch up (That's how the story goes) When you fuckin' up I'ma tell you Why you rollin' with the lame when you know you could do better? I'm that nigga was in the Porsche Now I'm in a '64 and you ridin' around in a Jetta Gave me that pussy and it was bomb Now you don't pick up my calls Shoulda known it was a set up Used to listen to heavy metal Now your pussy get wet when your foot is on the pedal Knowin' you'll never settle And a nigga gotta have bread if he want to get you A lot, not just a little And you can't meet the man in the middle He gotta be official Gotta rock them diamonds Gotta have a wrist full Gotta get that bread Gotta have a fist full I suppose I'm all of those But will I get another chance? Who knows (I guess that's how the story goes) When you doin' when they can't now (can't now) When you on and they ain't now (they ain't now) They heard you livin' in a bank now So they came 'round (That's how the story goes) When you chill but you can't trust (can't trust) Claim they gave they all but it ain't much (but it ain't much) Plenty hoes but it ain't love 'cause they switch up (That's how the story goes) When you send her up the elevator She was on her way down but you elevate her You know it's lonely at the top and you saw that ass She was down the high rise you ain't have to ask It's funny how the money and the bottles go Took her in the section full of bottle hoes Hopin' after leave her holla though Last week she was a single but she model though Waitin' on the check, waitin' on the check Muthafuck a bill, she just wanna flex Fuckin' for a Benz, fuckin' for a Benz When you livin' life leanin' on the gas You bound to wreak Whole lot of shit in town, are you down for sex? How many ballers she got in the rolodex? You ain't startin', it's hard to make a dolla stretch And she be hollerin' out next That's how the story goes When you doin' when they can't now (can't now) When you on and they ain't now (they ain't now) They heard you livin' in a bank now So they came 'round (That's how the story goes) When you chill but you can't trust (can't trust) Claim they gave they all but it ain't much (but it ain't much) Plenty hoes but it ain't love 'cause they switch up (That's how the story goes) When you doin' when they can't now (can't now) When you on and they ain't now (they ain't now) They heard you livin' in a bank now So they came 'round (That's how the story goes) When you chill but you can't trust (can't trust) Claim they gave they all but it ain't much (but it ain't much) Plenty hoes but it ain't love 'cause they switch up (That's how the story goes)
