Song Lyrics

I spent a check on a whip, on a bitch
On a grip, on a flip
Lost it all and got it right back
I fell in love with a chick that I thought was my bitch
'Til I found out it wasn't really like that, yeah

So I won't be around anymore (anymore)
I can hear the sounds of the war (I can hear the sounds, yeah)
And this ain't goin' down like before
I can hear the sounds of the war (oh)

I used to make love to a down-ass trick, you could bend her backwards (woo)
I don't need much, but a badass bitch and a Netflix password (hey)
I know that I'm comin' home late, but f*ck it, what we gon' do after?
I'm tryna get head today
Go to work like you got rent to pay
She a daddy's girl, like Reginae (ah)
I paid my dues, I ain't gon' lose (word)
Hit 'em with the hand of Deebo
All of you birds is Dan DeVito
I'ma die a legend like Dan Marino
I just blew a check at the damn casino
Stroll through life like I ain't got rules
You think I ain't got shit if I ain't got you
Well, how you gon' walk if you ain't got shoes? Ay
Shawty shootin' bullets from the Pontiac (buck)
She a ventilatin' hypochondriac (hey)
She just wanna know where the Molly at (woo)
I just wanna know where the party at (whoa)
I'ma leave your ass where I got you at (gang)
Damn, you done let the dog off the leash
Can't talk to me, now I'm harder to reach
You don't belong to me, you belong to the streets (yeah)

I spent a check on a whip, on a bitch
On a grip, on a flip
Lost it all and got it right back
I fell in love with a chick that I thought was my bitch
'Til I found out it wasn't really like that, yeah

So I won't be around anymore (anymore)
I can hear the sounds of the war (I can hear the sounds, yeah)
And this ain't goin' down like before
And I can hear the sounds of the war (oh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I got a Rolls, a pink Chanel and RIP Prodigy
Even when I'm just in at the spot, my wrist is a forty
I'm in New York with five hundred sticks and we sell 'em two thousand a piece
A hundo for privates, yeah, land in Hawaii, my bitches in Honolulu (yeah)
I hopped off a jet and I land in Dubai, look like she got red contacts in her eyes (hop of a jet)
I'm 'bout to buy, you know you can slide
I'm 'bout to ride but I don't lie
Want your body like Nicki Minaj (yeah, yeah)
Hypnotize the jeweler with these diamonds (yeah, yeah)
Takin' mine, yeah, that's minor (yeah, yeah)
I f*ck with ya right now, yeah

And all my life I just wanted to be me, babe (oh, oh)
And all my life I just wanted to be free (oh, oh)
Said, all them nights spent together (oh, oh)
We would stay up 'til forever (oh, oh)
You act like you don't remember, but I do (oh, oh)
And that's alright 'cause I know what it's gon' be, babe (oh, oh)
Said, "That's alright, I found someone else for me" (oh, oh, oh, oh)
So when you see us out together, please act like I never met you (oh, oh)
I just thought that I should let you know that

I won't be around anymore (anymore)
I can hear the sounds of the war (I can hear the sounds, yeah)
And this ain't goin' down like before (oh)
I can hear the sounds of the war (oh)
So I won't be around anymore (anymore)
I can hear the sounds of the war (I can hear the sounds, yeah)
And this ain't goin' down like before (oh)
And I can hear the sounds of the war (oh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
