East side gon back me up, gon back me up
West side gon back me up, gon back me up
South side gon back me up, gon back me up
North side gon back me up, yea
Everywhere I plant my feet, everybody know bout me nigga
I aint gotta say one word, I aint gotta show ID nigga
Back when I was in 10th grade, I saved up, got a set of gold teeth
And I took em out but 7 years later I got 7 sets of gold teeth
Nigga Im bout the bands, I do that
Private jet I flew that
40K I threw that
A quarter pound, I brew that
It sounds crazy but it aint nothing it
She a freak but I already knew it
She looked at me and said Im yo biggest fan
I told er if its real then tattoo it
Every day I wake up, smoking like Jamaicans
Like an occupation, this is so outrageous
Hey Im so good I make em bills copy faces
Giving that good and like the middle wafers
Free to the carpet, into the office
Then to the closet, many different flavors
Someone said my love youre called a label
And tell em hurry up with the paper
East side gon back me up, gon back me up
West side gon back me up, gon back me up
South side gon back me up, gon back me up
North side gon back me up, gon back me up
East side gon back me up, gon back me up
West side gon back me up, gon back me up
South side gon back me up, gon back me up
North side gon back me up, yea
Yea, look
You niggas tryna act like B.o.B and go
And stop that shit
Thats 50000$ Ill pack up
You gotta block that shit fool
Making this resume, cant nobody top that shit
And unless you the girl Im fuckin
Then you dont really need to be owned by a bitch like that uhm
Like that huh
Take a second, let me get it right back huh
They was hopin Id probably fall off right?
But all I feel was the niggas on my back yea
I aint even got no genre
But its going to be a contest yea
Well how the hell they gon call us the rap game
When most of yall niggas cant rap
Most of yall niggas so whack
Most of yall aint got, most of yall aint got no swag
Most of yall bad, most of yall niggas so flum
And all real niggas know that
Cus see this is not necessarily based on dexterity
Cus the things they tellin me is Im good as Ill ever be
Im good as Ill ever be
In the hood Im incredibly understood cus its definitely in my blood
Imma paint off you nigga
East side gon back me up, gon back me up
West side gon back me up, gon back me up
South side gon back me up, gon back me up
North side gon back me up, gon back me up
East side gon back me up, gon back me up
West side gon back me up, gon back me up
South side gon back me up, gon back me up
North side gon back me up, yea
