I just wanna ball, Like I'm 23
Won’t you get with me? You should get with me

[Verse 1: Unghetto Mathieu]
Shoot in these lil nigga faces (pew pew, BALL, ouuuu)

Look at your hoe she can’t do me

[Verse 2: Lil Yachty]
B!tch I ball like 23, ball like 45
Keep a .45 on my hip cause it’s time to ride
N!ggas think shit sweet ‘til it’s go time or no time
I had to let them know it was my time
Like I’m next in line
Like I’m out of mind like I’m out of line
Gave these b!tches right up out the pan
Ball like I’m playing right in front
Of like a hundred thousand hundred thousand fans, (LIL BOAT!)
Who is he? Someone get their mans, (Lil Boat)
I ain’t fvcking with these n!ggas
Cause these n!ggas pure pussy & their fragile..
A n!gga ball like Harden
Oops, excuse me, pardon
Have you seen me lately?
A n!gga really had to glow up
Cause them people didn’t wanna grow up
Had to leave them n!ggas in the past tense
Couldn’t reach me like a gated fence
When i know & i know (mumbles something)
You can kiss my ass (LIL BOAT)
[Unghetto Mathieu]
Shot wet splish splashh
Tell me why you ain't see me when I wasn’t seeing this cash
Jimmy nuetron “gotta blast”
I’ve been goin up fast
Live this day like my last
Live this day like my laaaaast!
[Chorus]
I just wanna ball, Like I'm 23
Won’t you get with me? You should get with me
I just wanna ball, like I'm 23
Like I'm 23, Yeah I'm 23

What inspired it?
As I was thinking about what the song should be centered around, I realized that I had just brought this Sprayground bag with skin that resembled that of a basketball.

What was the process of making the song like?
The process of making this song was actually brutal to be honest. I probably went to the studio about 5 times to switch things around in this song, just cause I didn’t like the way it was mixed or how something sounded. I even previously dropped the song, but deleted it do to the fact that I didn’t...
