[Intro]
Yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
Tryna get my cash up (Yeah)
Tryna get my cash up (Uhh)
Livin' in the city, when you're winnin' in the city
Nigga wanna get your glass up (Yeah)
Coca got my cash up (Yeah)
Heroin got my cash up (Yeah)
Shittin' on the city, when you're winnin' in the city
Nigga wanna get your glass up (Yeah)

[Verse 1]
Dear Maria
I know it was like 2010 the last time I had seen ya
Back when I used to hang outside, Actavis in my two liter
40 cals, liters and gallons, gon' keep the 9 millimeter
Plus I, plus I traded in the black Cadillac for the Beamer
I was trappin' out a dirty apartment on Little Caesar's
Damn Maria, can I purchase a brick of yay from your people?
Homie front me with like five, paid twenty-three for the eagle
Boy, I live illegal

[Chorus]
Said the game ain't gon' never change
Said the game got me heavy thangs
Said the game ain't gon' never change
Cocaine, Mary Jane got me heavy thangs (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
Dear Maria
You always kept a young nigga fed when I wasn't eatin'
Like when you set me up for the lick on them Puerto Ricans
Always said that if I get rich off this shit that you'd be the reason
Always said that if I'ma jump out this shit that you'd be the reason
Gotta have a type of all type of bitches, I gotta feed them
On the late night with the dick game, drugs in me got me creepin'
Know you love me, yeah, know you can't picture a nigga leavin'
I ain't never leavin', never, no, never, never say never, nigga
Say motherfuck love and stay on your cheddar, nigga
I wish that it felt like I had forever with you
But I know that one day, you gon' find a better nigga
They gon' wife up, settle down and gon' have a weddin' with ya
I'm just a thug, I'll buy bottles and get a section with ya
Maria flipped, she found out I'm fuckin' on her sister
Freddie Kane, dog unchained, I'm just that kinda nigga
Got the game runnin' in my veins
I got the game runnin' in my veins
Blood on my opponent
Don't give a fuck, I flaunt it, all I ever wanted was everything
Livin' in the city
Where you're shittin' on the city and the city got me blast
I got chickens in the city and a cousin shippin' with me
Told her ain't no future with me, I'm addicted to this cash
Dear Maria

[Chorus]
Said the game ain't gon' never change
Said the game, got me heavy thangs
Said the game ain't gon' never change
Cocaine, Mary Jane, got me heavy thangs

[Outro]
Never change, oh yeah
Never change, yeah yeah
Cocaine got me everything
This shit it won't change shit
Mary Jane, Rick James, cocaine
Ooh, ooh yeah
Rick James, Rick James
Cocaine, Rick James
Oh, oh
