Quotable Lyrics:
Smellin’ loud, my aroma, I’ll still creep up on ya (Yeah)
Real Gs in designer, b*tch, that swag my persona (Buh-buh-buh-buh)
I ain’t no Simpson, but f**k a yellow b*tch in my Homer boots
Blue’s hair triggers in the mag, like Maggie, done split ya dome up
Breathe, slow it down
She like, “Please” (Shh), “Another round” (Yeah)
I say “I’ma get you right, b*tch, you keep holding it down” (Hold me down)
I be in the sh*t all night, I gotta burn up some pounds (Burn some pounds)
Come on, keep up runnin’ my paper, put some diamonds on your necklace
I’ma stack the chains like Tetris
She wet, she let me feel it
Told her “One day, I be back, b*tch” (I’ll be back)
But I got one request, b*tch (Just one request)
