Lyrics and translation
Original
Uh, yo. Blowin' money fast but we ride slow.
This lifestyle we live to die for, so bullets is hollows. Ain't no tellin' how it might go.
Shooters hoppin' out with the mask. Watch his whole life flash, it's a slideshow.
Every day is a dice roll, might get his head cracked.
Niggas ain't playin' fair, tryna make his bread back. They go crazy when they see lil' green.
When you get the hot hand, it kill they self-esteem. Street dreams are made of these.
My uncle whip just got seized for a hundred keys.
Couldn't believe it when I heard the news, though I always knew that the hustler's spirit is in my blood, just a different path I had to choose. I'm havin' it my way, ain't playin' by the rules.
Real player in the game could give you a point or two.
Say when the odds against you, what you gonna do? Gotta keep a winner's attitude or else you bound to lose.
'Cause I want all of you. I'm 'bout that dough.
-Yeah.
-Baby, when I call you, you know that I -mean it, babe. -I need it, babe.
-Girl, I started from the bottom. -That's right.
Now that shit harder. Baby, when I see you. Money fix your problems with love.
-Facts. -Baby, when I touch my pocket.
-Facts. -Tell me what you want, I'ma cop it.
I have to tell you, baby, it's yours, it's yours.
We just try and thrive 'cause all we know is survival.
Livin' in the concrete -jungle, had to be tribal. -Yeah.
Basic instincts, my second nature is primal.
Any sign of a rival, dead on -arrival. -Yeah.
Every day my niggas gonna pray, hand on the Bible.
-Right.
-On these streets, seen false prophets and -false idols. -Uh-huh.
Lot of niggas claimin' they king and lost titles.
Lot of queens got they ass set up 'cause they was liable. I'm breathin' new life in the game, it's a revival.
Left me no choice to take your spot, it was rightful.
Life is a bitch and she back on the cycle. Can't stop 'til the chips I stack tall as the Eiffel.
My attitude's spiteful, my vision is insightful. Only downfall, at times I'm too prideful.
I'm the king of poppin' shit, but I ain't Michael.
The bag so large, look like I'm -packin' a rifle. -'Cause I want all of you.
I'm 'bout that -dough. -Yeah.
Baby, when I call you, you know that I mean it, babe.
-I need it, babe. -Girl, I started from the bottom.
-That's right. -Now that shit harder.
Baby, when I see -you. Money fix your problems with love. -Facts.
-Baby, when I touch my pocket. -Facts.
-Tell me what you want, I'ma cop it. -Yeah.
I have to tell you, baby, it's yours, it's yours.
Came a long way, always wanted that.
You was fuckin' with them drug dealers out there sellin' packs. Had to let my money stack.
-Hey. -Started to rap.
Got up in my bag, had to double back. Now I'm a star. Hit you in that suite with that honey pack.
-Oh.
-Unwrap, them bums clap while them guns -clap. -Clap.
Shootouts in your hood, while I'm in it I'm still gon' come back.
Come with all the smoke, I'ma heat it until my lungs black.
Then you pork it out, I'ma stick it -in like a thumbtack. -Woo.
-You're kidding like you the one cat. -Yeah.
I want you to lick it until your tongue tap.
-Ugh.
-Them diamonds be hidden under Burberry -mittens. -Yeah.
Baguette cut to precision so you ain't fifth division.
-Right. Yeah. Ugh. -I've been on a mission.
Copped you a new -Patty Labelle. That's the new addition. -Woo.
Maybach color Bobby Brown. This the new edition.
'Cause I want all of you.
-I'm 'bout that dough. -Yeah.
Baby, when I call you, you know that I mean it, babe.
-I need it, babe. -Girl, I started from the bottom.
-That's right. -Now that shit harder.
Baby, when I see -you. Money fix your problems with love. -Facts.
-Baby, when I touch my pocket. -Facts.
-Tell me what you want, I'ma cop it. -Yeah.
I have to tell you, baby, it's yours, it's yours.
