Oooh-ooooooh, gots to do my thang
Oh-ooooh
[Trae]
It`s been a long time coming, but I finally made it
Took the top off of the drop, then I finally sprayed it
They never thought I would be paid, but look at me now
I spit game, with a million dollar mouthpiece to lay it down
The representer from Texas, and known to get fly
They don`t wanna see me crack a smile, cause my diamonds`ll shine em down
And I know you heard of us, when I be Slow Loud And Bangin`
Corner to corner swanging all on the block, where the gangstas hanging
I gotta keep on thugging, blocks I`m hugging
Hatas I`m slugging, them boppers they getting no loving
Chrome I`m dubbing, Perellis be gliding and Southern
Lips be bumping, but they ain`t gon never be loving
And just to keep it real with you, they prolly wanna see me fall
But I ain`t and they can`t stop me, so now they gon watch me ball
And grind forever and ever, cause money gon be made
And as long as I`m in this game, is as long as I`m getting paid
[Hook]
Maintaining, doing my thang
Staying on my grind, trying to get my change
See I gotta get mine, cause I can`t get broke
And that`s all I know
Maintaining, doing my thang
Swanging in a slab, gripping on wood grain
That`s just the life that I chose
Don`t worry bout mine, nigga get your`s
[Trae]
I be in a state in your face, gliding a S-L-A-B
STS with nothing but T-I-N-T, reputation of a P-I-M-P
These hoes be hating, but never the less on my jock
Devastated by the knock I got, in a trunk with a fallen top
I`m a playa, nominated for G of the Year
With rocks in my ear, wood grain inside my hand when I steer
Reminiscing back in the day, when I was broke
But now I glide up the block, and turn heads till they neck look broke
Lil` Trae the same cat, they use to laugh at
Never thought that I would have to tell these hoes, to back back
Life is a trip, but then again I was destined to shine
24/7 everyday, I was motivated to grind
For better thangs, addicted to getting change
And now they be screaming my name, and saying I`m wrecking mayn
A Maab type dude from the guerillas on top, and hogging the lane
Dubs up to them hatas, watching me doing my thang
[Hook]
[Trae]
The Most Valuable Playa, block bender Trae up in a slab
If it`s tinted I`m in it, tipping and turning banging the Ave.
Picture me rolling a hundred miles per hour, to get away
To a low key la casa, where no drama can get my way
I`m in another zone, living it happy for a change
And since I`m stacking my change, I guess I just can`t complain
I still remain to be the same cat, from day one
Cool to the motherfucker, but shining bright like the sun
A Guerilla legend, that`s made of a Houston Texan
Balling to the top, and keeping it real without a question it ain`t no doubt
In my mind, I grind mine and shine and shine mine
And grind, and people losing they mind and that`s how it be
When you a G, I can`t help it but to be playa
My living is not a joke, I`m forever after my paper
All I ever wanted was dough, and that`s all I know
From here on out until I go, I`ma get it and that`s fa sho
[Hook - 2x]
