[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ok, yeah, look
Woah, Kenny
[Chorus]
Sacked him 'cause the boy weren't patient (Weren't)
Smoke weed, 'til it turn man quavers (Loud)
Bad luck cah, I heard he got grub (Got grub)
Took that, send it on vacation (Took that)
Fed boys don't know about statement (Don't)
I don't know, said, "I need translation" (I don't know)
Dumb cat want to moan about prices (Stupid)
Upped it, call it high inflation (Upped it)
[Verse 1]
The other day see, I had me a dream
And I dream that we had a bad bitch invasion (Yes I did)
Never worked at ninety degrees
So I flipped her 'round, that's a quick rotation (Switch, yeah)
Tek' wood 'cause she loves the sensation (Loves it)
Textbook, way I take a man's papers (Papers)
Fake nigga done it all for the status (Status)
New way, cuh, that shit's contagious (Contagious)
Let me be, she wan' do me
She wan' do gang, she ain't my favorite (She ain't)
Rather fly it up see you on the M-way
Take man's land, call it colonization (Upped it)
[Chorus]
Sacked him 'cause the boy weren't patient (Patient)
Smoke weed, 'til it turn man quavers (Loud)
Bad luck cah, I heard he got grub (Got grub)
Took that, send it on vacation (Took that)
Fed boys don't know about statement (Don't)
I don't know, said, "I need translation" (I don't know)
Dumb cat want to moan about prices (Stupid)
Upped it, call it high inflation (Upped it)
[Verse 2]
Look
I ain't into the "he say, she say"
Back my blade tell a boy "what's good?" (What's goodie?)
Man dish out a bang, no delay
Back tools if he avoids my hook (My hook)
Man smoke on the sweetest cheesecake (Loud)
While she dish out the sweetest goods (Ten)
I know I ain't with no threeway
Darlin' you must be misunderstood (Yeah)
On the block stay tugs and crooks
You can get got if you give weird looks (Can)
Where the mandem smoke on a loud one
And the ballers them take snus (Snus)
Had to tell the plug "Throw me a round one" (Round one)
And he's on the phone moving stush
Man pull up on your block like "how come?"
Cuz you bitches movin' hood
[Chorus]
Sacked him 'cause the boy weren't patient (Patient)
Smoke weed, 'til it turn man quavers (Loud)
Bad luck cah, I heard he got grub (Got grub)
Took that, send it on vacation (Took that)
Fed boys don't know about statement (Don't)
I don't know, said, "I need translation" (I don't know)
Dumb cat want to moan about prices (Prices)
Upped it, call it high inflation (Upped it)
Sat in 'cause the boy weren't patient (Weren't)
Smoke weed, 'til it turn man quavers (Loud)
Bad luck cah, I heard he got grub (Got grub)
Took that, send it on vacation (Took that)
Fed boys don't know about statement (No)
I don't know, said, "I need translation" (I don't know)
Dumb cat want to moan about prices (Prices)
Upped it, call it high inflation (I did)
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ok, yeah, look
