[Verse 2]

Stunna,^✦ I got 'em, I'm back on them bitches

All about^✦ my riches,^✦ my name should be Richard

Cut the bullshit out, I'm Edward with the scissors

Life is a choice, and death is a decision

Times^✦ have changed, but fuck it get a new watch

I still got the vision^✦ like a line between two dots

Young Money's eating,^✦ the label getting fatter^✦

And yeah, the tables^✦ turned,^✦ but I'm still sitting at 'em

I'm a bad motherfucker^✦ cause the good die young

Everybody^✦ selling dreams, I'm too cheap to buy one

Man, when that cookie crumble, everybody^✦ want a crumb

Shoot that hummingbird^✦ down, hummingbird^✦ don't hum

Yea, big money,^✦ big money,^✦ deep pockets

Money^✦ talks, and motherfuckers eavesdropping

Bunch of bloods, you could call it blood clotting

Eastside, MOB Piru^✦ Damu^✦

[Chorus]

I'm a blunt-blowin',^✦ Polo-drawers-showin'^✦

I-don't-give-a-lovely-motherfuck-ass-nigga^✦

With my teeth glowing, I'm on my Deebowin'^✦

You don't need a bus pass for me to bust yo ass, nigga^✦

[Verse 3]

Light that Ashton^✦ Kutcher,^✦ I'm a limit^✦ pusher^✦

See y'all dead meat, and me I'm just a butcher^✦

I do it for the money,^✦ man I am such a hooker^✦

And freedom was my girl, until^✦ they fucking took her

You can look into^✦ the future,^✦ it's right behind your eyelids

But I don't wanna^✦ know, cause shit I like surprises

Why that, why this, why you on that why shit?

Motherfucker^✦ ask me why, I say YM

Beach bum, call me Ocean^✦ Drive Slim

Drop the top, look up and make the sky grin

Young Mula,^✦ skinnies and some Supras

Belly^✦ of the beast 'til it puke us, motherfucker^✦

[Chorus]

I'm a blunt-blowin',^✦ Polo-drawers-showin'^✦

I-don't-give-a-lovely-motherfuck-ass-nigga^✦

With my teeth glowin',^✦ no matter^✦ where you going

You don't need a bus pass for me to bust yo ass, nigga^✦

[Outro]

I've been gone too long

True or false, right or wrong

Hello^✦ Weezy,^✦ welcome home

It's Young Mula,^✦ baby^✦

Verified Doubles & Entendres

"my name should be Richard"

① A reference to being 'Rich-ard' due to his immense wealth.② A nod to Richard Simmons or similar figures, common in Wayne's playful name-based puns.

"I'm Edward with the scissors"

① A reference to the character Edward Scissorhands.② Metaphorical application of 'cutting' or ending negative situations or 'bullshit'.

"I still got the vision like a line between two dots"

① Literal geometrical description of a line connecting two points.② Metaphor for having a clear path forward or focus despite distractions.

"You don't need a bus pass for me to bust yo ass"

① A dismissive comment regarding the listener's status or mobility.② A play on phonetic similarities between 'bus pass' and 'bust your'.

Exceptional command of rhythmic pocket

High density of internal rhyming creates a constant sense of forward momentum

Confident, charismatic vocal delivery that sells otherwise simple wordplay

Effective use of associative, non-sequitur style punchlines

Structural coherence is secondary to rapid-fire punchline delivery

Some metaphors lean toward superficiality rather than deep thematic exploration

Reliance on 'tough guy' tropes which occasionally limits the emotional resonance
