verse

Our childhood years recall^✦ the tears, heart laced^✦ with venom

Smokin'^✦ Shern, drinkin' malt liquor,^✦ father^✦ forgive her

Me and my girlfriend^✦ must of fell in love with the struggle

Hands on the steering wheel, bust! Watch me bail out and bust 'em

-ck 'em all, watch 'em fall screamin', automatic gunfire exorcisin' all demons

My - mafia's^✦ on the side, my complication^✦ high, ready^✦ to die

We bail out to take the jail back, -gas united^✦

Our first date, can't wait to see you naked^✦

Touch you in every^✦ secret^✦ place, I can hardly^✦ wait to bust freely^✦

Got you red-hot,^✦ you so happy^✦ to see me

I know deep inside^✦ baby^✦ girl'll always^✦ be mine

Picked^✦ you up when you was nine, started out my life of crime with you

Bought you some shells when you turned^✦ 22, it's true

Nothing compares to the satisfaction^✦ that I feel when we out mashin'^✦

Me and my girlfriend^✦

verse

I was too immature to understand your ways

Inexperienced back in the days

Caused^✦ so many^✦ arguments and strays

Now I realize how to treat ya, the secret^✦ to keep ya

Bein' faithful 'cause you know cheating's lethal

We closer^✦ than the hands of time

Deeper^✦ than the drive of mankind, I trust you dearly^✦

I shoot blind

In time, I clock figures, droppin' -s as we rise

We all soldiers in God eyes, now it's time for war

Never^✦ leave me waitin',^✦ I'm paranoid

Sleepin' with you loaded^✦ by my bedside, crazy^✦

Jealous when you hang with the fellas,^✦ I wait patiently alone^✦

Anticipatin'^✦ for the moment you come home

I'm waitin'^✦ by the phone

This is true love, I can feel it

- had a lot of women^✦ in my bed but you the realest

If you ever^✦ need me, call, I'll be there, through it all

You're the reason^✦ I could stand tall

Me and my girlfriend^✦

chorus^✦

All I need in this life of sin

Is me and my girlfriend^✦

Down to ride to the bloody^✦ end

Just me and my girlfriend^✦

All I need in this life of sin

Is me and my girlfriend^✦

Down to ride to the bloody^✦ end

Just me and my girlfriend^✦

verse

I love finger^✦ f- you, all of a sudden^✦ I hearin'^✦ thunder

When you bust a -ut, -s be duckin'^✦ or takin'^✦ numbers

Love to watch you at a block party^✦ beggin'^✦ for drama^✦

While unleashin' on the old times,^✦ that's on my mama^✦

I would trade my life for yours behind^✦ closed^✦ door

The only^✦ girl that I adore,^✦ everything I'm askin'^✦ for

Talkin'^✦ to me, beggin'^✦ me to just take you around

17, like Brandy,^✦ you just wanna^✦ be down

Talkin'^✦ loud, when I tell you, "Be quiet", you move a crowd

Bustin'^✦ rounds, activatin'^✦ arye, that's why I love you

So no control, down to roll unleash, after^✦ I hit, you break apart^✦

Then back to one piece

Much love to my one and only^✦ girlfriend^✦

The world is ours, just hold me down

Baby,^✦ witness the power,^✦ never^✦ leave a - alone^✦

I love you, black or chrome, turn this house into^✦ a happy^✦ home

Me and my girlfriend^✦

Critic Analysis

RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

The verse functions as a masterclass in personification, mapping the tactical relationship with a firearm onto the intimacy of a romantic courtship to create a cohesive, high-tension narrative.

Extended personificationInternal rhyme chainsCyclical rhythmic pacingDynamic intensity modulation

Rhyme Architecture: Predominantly AABB with highly dense internal slant rhyming (venom/forgive her/struggle/bust 'em) that pushes the momentum forward through enjambment.

Verified Doubles & Entendres

"Me and my girlfriend"

① A romantic partner involved in a Bonnie and Clyde-style crime spree.② A personification of the rapper's handgun (the 'girlfriend'), used as a constant companion in conflict.

"Touch you in every secret place, I can hardly wait to bust freely"

① Sexual intimacy and the anticipation of physical climax.② Handling the weapon and the tactical readiness to fire ('bust') during a confrontation.

"automatic gunfire exorcisin' all demons"

① A literal description of a shootout in a hostile environment.② A metaphor for purging psychological trauma or external 'enemies' through violent discharge.

Exceptional use of persona to externalize internal conflict

Rhythmic pocket maintenance despite the chaotic thematic content

Cohesive narrative arc that sustains the metaphor from start to finish

Vocabulary choices remain within common gangsta rap lexicon of the era

Occasional reliance on genre tropes to bridge structural gaps
