[Verse 1: Caleb James]
Been plan on get the cake since i started growin
Been called the illest n**** since i started flowin
Plus the piece on my wrist cost a couple racks
Best student in math i always had the facts
Being broke is not a option
Young n**** comin for that cheese au gratin
I’m that little n**** all them old heads is watchin
And I used to have them other kids mad ‘cause I was spoiled rotten
Silver spoon in my mouth n****
I don’t need no vouchers
Walk up in my crib and see thousand dollar couches
Started in sixth grade when my mind got polluted from that green Cali kush tryna get my kitty boosted
Move back from moms’ and pops’ when I got roofless
N****s talk shit always walked away toothless
Wasn’t [?] to the streets ‘sho wasn’t stupid
N**** every other year i was the new kid
[Hook: Sample & Caleb James]
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Man i know you like my style n****, dontchu (Dog, it’s a dog)
Your girlfriend want me now n**** (Payback is a dog)
You just hate I just smile n**** (Dog, it’s a dog)
Then i let the money pile n**** (Payback is a dog)
Man i know you like my style n****, dontchu (Dog, it’s a dog)
Your girlfriend like me now n**** (Payback is a dog)
You just hate I just smile n**** (Dog, it’s a dog)
Then i let the money pile n**** (Payback is a dog)
Dog, it’s a dog
[Verse 2: Caleb James]
Tryna find my next way that I can come up on a dollar
On the paper chase you could holla at your guala
Brush my shoulders off, straighten my shirt, fix my collar
Tired of ridin’ Chevy Cavaliers and Impalas
I get my Malcolm X on it’s by any means
Little n**** out here with a dollar and a dream
Tryna make my shit pop, n****s hopin my shit flop
But when it drop it’s gon’ rise to the top of the charts
Drop hits and knock singles straight outta the park just like I’m ‘sposed to
This the type of shit you gotta go through
When you on the grind, when you tryna shine
So I tell my mans [el boog?] to hook up the pro tools
Record these vocals I go ham
730 on n****s I go postal
Got ‘em like “oh my god based god save money”
My n**** Vic told them hoes to get a chase card
KTD shout out Greg and [Mase god?]
[Hook: Sample & Caleb James]
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Man i know you like my style n****, dontchu (Dog, it’s a dog)
Your girlfriend want me now n**** (Payback is a dog)
You just hate I just smile n**** (Dog, it’s a dog)
Then i let the money pile n**** (Payback is a dog)
Man i know you like my style n****, dontchu (Dog, it’s a dog)
Your girlfriend like me now n**** (Payback is a dog)
You just hate I just smile n**** (Dog, it’s a dog)
Then i let the money pile n**** (Payback is a dog)
Dog, it’s a dog
[Verse 3: Vic Mensa]
Don’t get caught in it
N****s thinkin they slick til they slip
I had a homie named Joe he was my n**** from the rip right
We used to sit around and sip cold chillin at the tip rollin big ol papers livin the spliff life
And never trippin bout a chick he always had em on the dick so whenever he’d come around they showed love
He used to whip it to the show clean mackin on the stro
You could see them hoes choosin when he rolled up
Was pulled up like e’rry night
Worked a little job but the shit ain’t payin right
He wasn’t even trippin wasn’t worried bout the money he was more about the cut he (Cudi), look, looked like Day and Night, you feel me?
But, but not everybody thought it was cool
He hit this little young chick that he had caught up at school
Her big brother found out, let that gun sound out
And left my homie face down in a pool
Man payback is a bitch
[Hook: Sample & Caleb James]
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Dog, it’s a dog, payback is a dog
Man i know you like my style n****, dontchu (Dog, it’s a dog)
Your girlfriend want me now n**** (Payback is a dog)
You just hate I just smile n**** (Dog, it’s a dog)
Then i let the money pile n**** (Payback is a dog)
Man i know you like my style n****, dontchu (Dog, it’s a dog)
Your girlfriend like me now n**** (Payback is a dog)
You just hate I just smile n**** (Dog, it’s a dog)
Then i let the money pile n**** (Payback is a dog)
