Only nigga to put 'niggas' on his Grammy
There he go again talking about his Grammy
The beats put him on, but the flows' been advancing
Now a days everybody wanna talk
Like they got something to say
But nothing comes out when they move their lips
Just a bunch of gibberish
And motherf*ckers act like they forgot about Hit
Now a days everybody wanna talk
Like they got something to say
Compare me to niggas that be shootin up in the game
f*cking a shame, but I'm just here to get my buzz
Give a f*ck about a f*ck nigga
Say what nigga I can give a f*ck about a f*ck nigga
(Know what I'm talkin' bout)
Pay up, HS87 We The Plug, nigga
Say what nigga I can give a f*ck about a f*ck nigga
