[Intro: Lyric Reddick & Amarii Davu]
Yeaaaa
Ladies and gentlemen
Thank you for tuning in to W.H.O. The Fuck Do You Think You Are? We play nothin' but the OG's
And ain't nothin' shakin' but the leaves
Oh and please believe
Those wouldn't be shakin' if it wasn't for the breeze
Now can you dig it?
Now can you dig that?
Alright...
[Chorus: Lyric Reddick & Amarii Davu]
Go 'head and raise up yo motherfuckin' glass
'Cause I don't know how to act unless I have my Cognac
You come through trippin' and I might just bust yo ass
'Cause I don't know how to act unless I have my Cognac
I'll let you slide, but I'll never let you pass
'Cause I don't know how to act unless I have my Cognac
Don't interrupt me 'less you talkin' 'bout a bag
'Cause I don't know how to act unless I have my Cognac
[Verse 1: Amarii Davu]
Yea, cups up, cups up
Cups up, cups up, (Look) cups up
Live and direct
They was doubtin' all my steps
'Til my foot was on they neck
Representin' a city
Where niggas quick to forget it
Missin' the simple fact
That the South constructed the system
This is legend, my nigga, this is legend
That Yak and real niggas is such a beautiful pairin'
They ask me what I'm doin'
I'm groovin', lost in the music
Congruent to rockin' movements
No losin', need me a Judy, big booty
Bust her down in the rental
Return the rental with juices
My parentals they knew this
I was a motherfucker
Triumph over struggle
The only thing I knew was hustle
This motivation for the hoods that we came from and
This inspiration come from niggas that was taken from us
And we still livin' so this liquor mo' than drankin' for us
We celebratin'
Raise yo' cups for us, nigga
We celebratin'
Raise yo' mothafuckin' cups, bitch
[Chorus: Lyric Reddick & Amarii Davu]
Go 'head and raise up yo motherfuckin' glass
'Cause I don't know how to act unless I have my Cognac
You come through trippin' and I might just bust yo ass
'Cause I don't know how to act unless I have my Cognac
I'll let you slide, but I'll never let you pass
'Cause I don't know how to act unless I have my Cognac
Don't interrupt me 'less you talkin' 'bout a bag
'Cause I don't know how to act unless I have my Cognac
[Verse 2: Lyric Reddick]
I'm counting my blessings, they doubling up
I'm twistin' these cubes 'cause bitch, it's my cup
We step in the building they know who we are
We leave it on empty but full of the bar
Fill up the car
Quit with the yappin' ya mouth
Steady open, you keep it ajar
I make it happen
I'm not with the cappin'
So either I'm pokin' or see you tomorrow
I ain't never been on regular
I hold it down like tegular
That's lucky number 7
'Cause I got heaven on my cellular
If you cross paths on contrast
That paper work I'm mailing ya
If you can't get with that
Guarantee that I come through like I'm impalin' ya
I held my city down 'til they picked me up
Momma gave me Crown, not a sippy cup
Bubbled up until I lost my lid
Most cats ain't take the chances I did
People were strugglin' I'm givin' them hope
They say I'm too humble
My town, I promote
We gave up the power, I'm takin' it back
The hood superhero, my skin color 'Yak
Yeaaaa
Said it's been like that? (Said it's been like that?)
Give my kinfolk back
I'd trade it all for another call
To hear every last of my kinfolk yap
We pour it up for the team again
But we pour out for the guardians
We act up and then we start again
So we can act out when the party ends
Yeaaaa
Yeaaaa
