Nasty, baby me do it in the backseat
Swear this marijuana keep it cracking

Days of our lives so clap, clap that cake
Spreading your thighs I pump, pump your brakes, ay

Just give me the drink and we can pour it ya
And my enemies, they see me living now
And if you roll with me, then you'll be winning now, oh

When the tree be way too strong
Get faded, turn up, bruh
Pour it on up 'till I can't even think no more
