  • Mm-mm-mm

    I'm about to pull up
    Hit switch, pull curtain (hit switch, pull curtain)
    And I've been waitin' so long
    Now I gotta resurface (I gotta resurface)
    And yeah, we 'bout to toast up
    All that bread that we burnin' (burnin', burnin', burnin')
    'Cause I've been feelin' cooped up (yeah)
    I've been fuckin' cooped up (mm-mm-mm)

    Yeah, I'm off the Bud Light, not the bourbon (mm)
    I might chop the roof off the Suburban (skrrt)
    Tried to Bia Nice Guy, John Terzian (wow)
    'Til I started throwin' up in your Birkin (ooh)
    Then I woke up in the mornin'
    Police showed up at my door with a warrant (fuck that shit)
    I remember flushin' somethin' down the toilet (flush, flush)
    Guess he gotta let me off with a warnin'
    Return of the Mack (ah)
    Feelin' like an outcast, I'm the only guy in slacks
    That'll cost you three stacks (three stacks, three stacks)
    Now you savin' that check, why you takin' my swag?
    Can you give me that back?
    Gucci my Prada, Miyake (ooh)
    Louis, Bottega, and Tommy
    All of these things on my body, let's party (ah-ah-ah)

    I'm about to pull up
    Hit switch, pull curtain (hit switch, pull curtain)
    And I've been waitin' so long
    Now I gotta resurface (I gotta resurface)
    And yeah, we 'bout to toast up
    All that bread that we burnin' (burnin', burnin', burnin')
    'Cause I've been feelin' cooped up (yeah)
    I've been fuckin' cooped up (cooped up, mm-mm-mm)

    Shit, gotta pull up
    Pull up, I'ma pull up
    I pull up, ayy
    Got black minks all on the rug, whoa, whoa
    Got hella hoes poppin' drugs, whoa, whoa
    In every hood, they show us love, whoa, whoa
    Partner in crime with me while we whippin' in the spaceship
    Got it out the pavement, now we gettin' payment
    Everybody 'round me gettin' money, it's too contagious
    Kept it solid, now we real rich to they amazement
    I pulled up the Black Badge 'cause it was cleaner
    I 'member I was just posted up with the demons
    And Posty took me on my first damn tour date
    He had me rockin' every night, sold out arenas
    A project nigga, I never thought I would see shit
    If I tried to tell you, you prolly wouldn't believe us

    I'm about to pull up
    Hit switch, pull curtain (hit switch, pull curtain)
    And I've been waitin' so long
    Now I gotta resurface (I gotta resurface)
    And yeah, we 'bout to toast up
    All that bread that we burnin' (burnin', burnin', burnin')
    'Cause I've been feelin' cooped up (yeah)
    I've been fuckin' cooped up (cooped up, mm-mm-mm)

    'Til the daylight come, 'til the daylight come
    I got sake in my tummy, cigarette in my lungs
    It's eleven in the mornin' and we still ain't done
    And I'm still that bitch, so what?

    Yeah, we 'bout to toast up
    All that bread that we burnin' (burnin', burnin', burnin')
    'Cause I've been feelin' cooped up (yeah)
    I've been fuckin' cooped up (mm-mm-mm) Writer/s: Austin Richard Post, Louis Russell Bell, Rodrick Wayne Jr. Moore, William Walsh
