Straight Up Ballin
You see, growing up in the country
We ain't never had a lot of money
Never had much but always had enough, you know what I'm talkin about
But now that I live in the city
I feel like sometimes I need to put on a front just to fit in, and act like I do make a lot of money
But the truth is
I get my clothes at Target
An '03 Honda is what my car is
Not a lot of space in my apartment
Cereal for dinner I be Lucky Charmin'
Running out of minutes when my bitches callin'
I'm walkin', cuz I can't pay for parkin'
Yeah I know my money might not be the longest
But I still act like I'm straight up ballin'
I got my jacket on Amazon, I say it's from Nordstrom
Made a hundred dollars in a day, that's a fortune
For a couple thousand dollars, might donate my organs
She ask me how much I make, why?
That's not important
Every night for dinner I just make a frozen pizza
Cheapest tequila, make a margarita
That's what makes me happy really that is all I need bruh
Only downside's the next day's diarrhea
I'm freezing in my car, cuz the heater is broken
My window won't shut, so I'm keeping it open
I'm supposed to check my engine but I'm scared of what I'd find out
If my car bursts into flames, I'll just climb out
I walk around with a fake Rollie on my wrist
Burberry sunglasses but I stole em from a prick
I'm carrying my baggage like I'm goin on a trip
But I'm just going to the laundromat
I get my clothes at Target
An '03 Honda is what my car is
Not a lot of space in my apartment
Cereal for dinner I be Lucky Charmin'
Running out of minutes when my bitches callin'
I'm walkin', cuz I can't pay for parkin'
Yeah I know my money might not be the longest
But I still act like I'm straight up ballin'
I walk into my crib, and the door hits the mattress
Floor slanted makes it so hard to balance
But I'm acting like I'm living in a palace
That is not a cup I'm drinking outta it's a chalice
Jeans got patches, I don't pay my taxes
Illegally streaming when I'm tryna watch the Mavericks
Living like a savage, this ain't even average
That don't matter cuz I live what I imagine
My feet hurt from walking I could use a pair of new shoes
I need to spray em off, I just stepped in doggy doodoo
I could work a double but I'd rather watch hulu
Thank god I still remember my ex's password
Cuz I ain't paying for that
I lied and told her I got money now she hates me for that
Cuz she was taken aback, but I ain't takin it back
Because I prefer denial over facing the facts
Money ain't everything, I say it cuz I'm broke
I say a lot of jokes, cuz they say that I'm a joke
I'm a victim of the system they just saying that I'm woke
I don't care, I still claim that I'm the goat, even though
I get my clothes at Target
An '03 Honda is what my car is
Not a lot of space in my apartment
Cereal for dinner I be Lucky Charmin'
Running out of minutes when my bitches callin'
I'm walkin', cuz I can't pay for parkin'
Yeah I know my money might not be the longest
