[Verse 2 - Messy Marv]
Gucci✦ shirt, Gucci✦ jeans, Gucci✦ this, Gucci✦ that
Before✦ I walk out the house, everything gotta✦ match
I ride through this bitch with a pocket✦ full of money✦
I bet no nigga✦ won't say nothing✦ in front me
I went and bought a Benz and went and got a bike
Went and stopped by the paint shop then sprayed 'em cold white
Them 24-inches✦ man, you know what it is
A nigga✦ put 'em on so my shit'll look big
I'm a certified goon, I be putting in work
I ride with the cannon✦ cause I be doing hella✦ dirt
I'm the all black fitted✦ with them all-black swatches
Pushing through the ghetto running from the paparazzi
All the hood niggas love me
The price on the coke, nigga,✦ it look so lovely✦
I'm a thug 'til I die
The club ain't poppin' if these bitches ain't high
You know me
[Hook]
[Verse 3 - Chamillionaire]
Trina,✦ Lil Kim, Mariah
Rihanna even✦ Mýa
Got reps like singing cheques
A whip for each desire✦
They told me never✦ to burn a bridge but I still keep a lighter
Ain't met a former✦ friend that proved✦ he can compete with fire
And the paint so wet I gotta✦ park my cars inside✦ a dam
So fly my clothing✦ line should be called✦ the 'Mileage✦ Plan'
Metal inside✦ my hand promise it ain't no trying fam
That Marvel comic baby✦
(What you mean?)
That Iron✦ Man
That Maserati body✦ parked✦ right there outside the lobby✦
P-O-P to your body✦ if you ever✦ trying to try me
And the paint soaked✦ c-c-candy ladies✦ wanna✦ lick my like a lolli-✦
P-O-P so my hobby✦ is to sit behind a Jolly-✦
Rancher, look at my swagger, my name is more than known
My garage✦ the square footage✦ of the Georgia Dome
Got imported stones,✦ always order✦ chrome
Every✦ other✦ week my ride is gonna✦ be exactly what I want it on
[Hook]
