The Language

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I don't know why they been lying but yo shit is not that inspiring

Bank account statements just look like I'm ready for early retirement

Fuck any nigga that's talkin' that shit just to get a reaction

Fuck going platinum, I looked at my wrist and it's already platinum

I am the kid with the motor mouth

I am the one that you should worry about

I don't know who you're referring to, who is this nigga you heard about?

Someone just talking that bullshit, someone just gave you the run-around

Niggas downplaying the money but that's what you do when the money down

I don't waste time putting money down

I just go straight to who got it and buy it in cash

Pussy so good that you gotta come see me on tour and you gotta fly in first class

This has been years in the making, it's all for the city

You know I come right every summer, Cash Money Records forever

I'm always big timing, bitch, I came up right under Stunna

You know it

Jealousy in the air tonight, I could tell

I will never understand that but oh well

Been ready, it's real, I don't know about you

She just want to smoke and fuck, I said "Girl, that's all that we do"

Okay, now you're talking my language

Now you're talking my language

Now you're talking my language

Now you're talking my language

Been ready, it's real, I don't know about you

She just want to smoke and fuck, I said "Girl, that's all that we do"

I'm about to roll one and light it and fuck it man, no one's invited

I got to kill off the weak shit that's got all you niggas excited

I can't even listen, you whylin', I'd much rather sit here in silence

I send all my money to banks in the islands and eat with Italians, I do

People are funny; you don't even know about the shit that I been through

I just want some head in a comfortable bed, it could all be so simple

Talkin' that shit with your back to me, just know it always get back to me

Come get your girl, she been here for three days and she way too attached to me

Hate when they get too attached to me

I got to get on the bus and get back on the road

Get what I can out the country

And then I just get on the jet and go back to the cold

Can't even drive with the top off

Been workin' so hard on the album I missed the whole summer

I just might bring in some girls from Miami

To heat up the city and that's word to Stunna

You know it

Jealousy in the air tonight, I could tell

I will never understand that but oh well

Been ready, it's real, I don't know about you

She just want to smoke and fuck, I said "Girl, that's all that we do"

Okay, now you're talking my language

Now you're talking my language

Now you're talking my language

Now you're talking my language

Been ready, it's real, I don't know about you

She just want to smoke and fuck, I said "Girl, that's all that we do"

[Birdman]

You understand me?

Showtime, headlines

Big time, sunshine, tote nines

Bust mines, flatline, hard grind

High life, stay fly as jet time

Stunt nigga

Every time you see a nigga

Stunt nigga

Every time you see a nigga

Stunt nigga

Swag on head to feet nigga

Stunt nigga

I might just bring in some girls from Miami

To heat up the city and that's word to Stunna

You know it
