Out of the South, then we packed to the East
Jumped in somewhere I could buy me a seat (Yeah)
Then moved out West because bro had a V
Looked in his eyes and said, "Need one of these"
Three hundred days and it still ain't no sleep
Inside and outside was ninety degrees

Six months down out in Cabo
The lil' tryna teach me Spanish (Alright)
Altoids shaped like Xanax (Uh-huh)
Cup spilled up then vanished (Whatever I say, yeah)
