Quotable Lyrics
Get your Rollie just when you thought this shit was rosie
Your bitch chose me, can't keep me out the game
Not even with a D. Rose knee, my jeans fit me like David Bowie
You can't play me, n***as must be takin' Peyote
Trippin', when you fly in, n***as better check in like I'm Trick Trick
