Nigga what? I'm complicated down to my strut
Like the way I hold my gat flat on its side like a pug
And I'm tickling the trigger make it laugh from its gut
You would think I'm a comedian the way it erupts
Nigga what? I represent the ashes and dust
All that's sittin up in ya chin that's got ya stuck in a rut
You can fire
You can whistle your desires even Buddha got snuffed
Nigga now I'm standing on the corner of wow
Exclamations pointed at me 'cuz I'm gettin' these nouns
Got these kids inventing adjectives and gaining renown
'Cuz I am nigga
Nigga please
Third dimension
Oh
Ask your front door what my sawed off got you snortin' them keys
Nigga what? But I ain't gonna knock open up
When it's time to meet your maker ain't no changing the plot
You're an actor in the series nigga
And I'm here to serve these royalties like gold in a pot
Callin' haves and have nots
Callin' haves and have nots
Callin' haves and have nots
Callin' haves and have nots
Callin' haves and have nots
Callin' haves and have nots
Callin' haves and have nots
Callin' haves and have nots
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
God and pussy
And ill repute some rather seek up high
Than dig and grind that inner truth
The angel of my eye
A bit too fly to substitute
With any other form than the Messiah's black Mariah
Mothership
The wave and form of beauty born of Eden's apple tree
And every single Adam stands erect and prays to be
The follower she offers sweet communion
Let me see you run it just like that
Move your hips from side to side
Come forward
Let me know firsthand the land of glory that I lack
I surrender all to you if you surrender back
Holy God where'd you learn to squeeze it tight and then
Move it slow enough for me to question everything?
You slowly start to tremble heaven's walls begin to sing
Tsunami ever after cosmic slop on everything
Hey
Hey
B**** nigga
(Ain't no need to stop that)
Killer
Bad luck f*****' with this black buck
Bigger Thomas I promise
B**** nigga
Killer
Bad luck f*****' with this black buck
Bigger Thomas I promise
