[Verse 2]
I'm like, hold up, wait a second,✦ y'all thought I was second?✦
Hating✦ on a champ, throwing salt and not confetti
We pull up and we shoot, then we park the car and edit✦
Watch me pull up with no roof
Tthat's cause I walk the dog and pet it
I'm like, hold up, wait a minute,✦ y'all thought I was finished?
Shoot you in your head, then just walk off like I didn't
Let my money✦ talk so much, put my jawbone outta✦ business
Doing numbers in this bitch, I'm like a smart phone with the digits✦
Bitch!
Riding✦ 'round with the volume✦ down
With the windows up and the choppers down
Soon as we get to your block
It's the motherfuckin' other✦ way around✦
My bitch say I'm too wild
She don't even✦ know why she stay around✦
I get home and I dick her down
Now she talking 'bout exchanging vows
If these bullets was paintballs
I could fuck around✦ and I could paint a house
You could tell I'm pimpin'✦
Tthe way I hit the blunt with my pinkie out
I bring wine to Amy✦ house
We smoke it out and we drank it out
And talk about✦ these pussy✦ niggas✦
Tthat ain't about✦ what Wayne about✦
I'm hangin✦ out a Mulsanne without a brain, it's out of its mind
I pull over,✦ I push a button,✦ it change like Optimus Prime
Speaking of change, it's a shame how these lames✦ droppin' them dimes✦
We aim at your grape, knock it off, now you just vines✦
Blood Gang, red rain on these niggas,✦ hot if you dry
My gang top of the line, hollerin' out "Squad, take it outside"
I'm a taxpayer, I'm a axe player, gettin'✦ in through the back well
Red devil to the blue collared, un-enveloped blackmail
Fed up with the fed shit and Fed-Ex lost my package
My white girls say "Yeah, nigga!"✦ My white homies✦ act blackish
Ain't tall enough✦ for the NBA, I ain't big enough✦ for the NFL
Should've been in N.W.A., fuck the police,✦ Five-0 and 12
One time for your mind, bitch, never✦ say "Nevermind," bitch
You a penny✦ short of a dime, bitch, no nonsense
Had a nine since I was nine, bitch
Yeah, born to murder✦
Bank account on fat, bustin'✦ out the girdle
Tell 'em boys ain't nothin'✦ sweet, it's sauerkraut, ya heard me?
They find ya body✦ in New Orleans on Mardi Gras on Bourbon
Like, oh, Lord, Humphrey Bogart✦
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a crowbar
For the most part, I'm the southern coast guard
AK-47 spittin' flame like a blow torch
[Outro]
Sorry✦ 4 The Wait, woo

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

Wayne utilizes a rapid-fire, conversational cadence that offsets the simplicity of his punchlines, relying on his signature flow-variation and internal rhyme density to elevate standard braggadocio imagery.

Rhyme Architecture: A dense, asymmetrical structure heavily reliant on terminal rhyme repetition ('second/confetti/edit', 'finished/didn't/business/digits') that blends into short, staccato clauses to force internal rhyming patterns.
Verified Doubles & Entendres

"smart phone with the digits"

① Reference to the advanced capabilities of a smartphone to process complex data.② A double entendre on 'digits' referring to both numerical data and financial wealth (money/large sums).

"If these bullets was paintballs / I could fuck around and I could paint a house"

① A hypothetical scenario involving the quantity of ammunition.② A visualization of the sheer volume of gunfire being so excessive that it covers a structural surface like paint.

"I bring wine to Amy house"

① A literal social gesture of bringing alcohol to an acquaintance.② A possible play on 'Amy Winehouse,' contextualized by the artist's lifestyle references of the era.

High density of internal rhymes

Conversational delivery that keeps the flow feeling spontaneous

Strong command of rhythmic pocket

Some punchlines rely on forced associations

Content remains strictly within traditional 'flex rap' tropes

Lack of deep thematic continuity between disparate imagery
