    I done been to Hell

    I done been to Hell
    You motherfuckas tryna catch me we just all gon' burn in Hell
    I done been to jail
    I don't give a fuck about doin' life or a jail cell
    I done sold the drugs
    I done came with the war, with the motherfuckin' thug-thugs
    We don't really care
    You tried to catch me motherfucker, I'ma burn this shit here

    I'ma march to the beat, I'm my own drummers
    Let's get it on baby, we can go to war all Summer
    I done been to jail, I done did numbers (uh, yeah)
    I done been to Hell, I done been under (uh, what?)
    Difference between a boss and a runner
    Whatever you thinkin', no way, uh-huh, I'm doin' what you wanna
    Playin' the game in the off-season, niggas need to stop it (please)
    You gon' fuck around and end up, rolled up in a carpet (come on)
    Every time your man pull up with a car, Teddy get in
    Don't do it, you think you chasin' but I'm just leadin' you to a dead end
    Lucks stop here, you motherfucker tweakin' too
    That buckshot your hear, fuck outta here

    I done been to Hell
    You motherfuckas tryna catch me we just all gon' burn in Hell
    I done been to jail
    I don't give a fuck about doin' life or a jail cell
    I done sold the drugs
    I done came with the war, with the motherfuckin' thug-thugs
    We don't really care
    You tried to catch me motherfucker, I'ma burn this shit here

    Ayy, I been to Hell and back (back)
    Now crack the ceiling back (back)
    Even if he told on me, I ain't tellin' back (back)
    You shootin' or you smokin'? (Smoke)
    I'm servin' in the open (open)
    Fire on close range, my Arab gon' scope him (bah, bah, bah, bah, bah)
    Catch me if you can, plan B ain't a plan (plan)
    Shootin' like that old one Marcus with the cane (bah)
    Can be, served dog food and the candy (yeah)
    Shorty jerk me off like The Weeknd at the GRAMMY's (ha)
    Feds tryna get me like Rondo
    Had the block jumpin' like Vince when he played for Toronto (woo)
    Zz Buckets, see me cuffin' (cuffin')
    Every piece of jewelry is 3D bussin' (bling)
    Yellow French, yeah, with The Godfather trilogy
    Best gift from France is the Statue of Liberty (Montana)

    Catch, catch, catch
    Ca-ca-ca-ca-ca-ca-catch me if you can

    I done been to Hell
    You motherfuckas tryna catch me we just all gon' burn in Hell
    I done been to jail
    I don't give a fuck about doin' life or a jail cell
    I done sold the drugs
    I done came with the war, with the motherfuckin' thug-thugs
    We don't really care
    You tried to catch me motherfucker, I'ma burn this shit here (burn this shit here)

    Catch, catch, catch
    Catch me if you can
    Catch, catch, catch
    Ca-ca-ca-ca-ca-ca-catch me if you can
    I done been to Hell, woo
