[Chorus]
Yeah, you know what this is
It's a celebration,✦ bitches✦
Grab a drink, grab a glass
After✦ that, I grab yo' ass
[Verse 2]
See, you know my style. I'm very✦ wild
And I vow that my child will be well-endowed
Like his daddy,✦ and tell him that your mama had a fattie
He looked up at me, said, "Daddy,✦ that's the reason why you had me?"
Yep. We was practicing
'Til one day, your ass bust through the packaging
You know what, though? You my favorite accident
So go head, pop some Cristal for my newborn child, 'cause now, y'all
[Chorus]
Know what this is
It's a celebration,✦ bitches✦
Grab a drink, grab a glass
After✦ that, I grab yo' ass
[Post-Chorus]
But, I just thought you should know
We hit the liquor store
Got some Cris' and some Mo'
And we about✦ to let it flow, oh, oh. Oh-oh-oh✦
Had some problems before✦
But see, we let 'em go
Got an ounce of that 'dro
And we about✦ to let it blow, oh-oh.✦ Oh-oh-oh,✦ oh-oh✦
[Outro]
Oh, oh
We lookin' for some hoes, hoes
Ooh!

Critic Analysis

Rhyme Architecture: The verse relies on a loose AABB/CC structure, heavily reinforced by rapid internal rhyme clusters (wild/child/endowed/daddy/fattie/had me) that keep the momentum moving despite the simple end-rhyme structure.
