[Intro: Lil Wayne]
I get high, high, high, high
Word

[Verse 1:Lil Wayne]
I do this when I wanna, mama
I hustle when it;s hotter, money, gun, weed, and a water bottle
I'm the coolest in the sauna mama
I ain't sweating it, I'm betting it, I'll make it back tomorrow, Mama
I got corner honor, ain't been to court since 2004
Looks like I got it going, your honor
I'm a lone rider, grind for my own dollars
They was in front, but I'm blowing by 'em, [?]
I'm on hoes like cornrows, open toes
Fake titties, yes, I bought both of those
Hold your nose, I'm the shit, can't be flushed
I got the toilet stopped up, call the plumber up
My stomach stuffed—that's right, I'm eating
I smoke the best weed, look like I'm sleeping
Cook it by this evening, off it by the morning
Professional dope boy, my office is The Carter

[Sample]
You don't know what you're doing

[Verse 2: Lil Wayne]
Yes, I do, and I do it better than most
My competitive drive knock a nigga off the road, yeah
Lock and load, pull the triggers and roll, yeah
The bigger your mouth, the bigger the hole, yeah
We figured 'em out, them niggas is hoes
Yeah, they lawn chairs, baby, quicker to fold
But me—I'm quick on my toes, I remember the code
You need a pass for the hood, watch me get through the tolls, shit
I been through the cold, I shot through the fire
Still rock too much ice, should've got you a visor
I pull up, the bitches flock and admire
Fresh, like I just stepped out of a dryer
Yes! No fret, I got the lock of a lion
It's Eagle Street, ho, the whole block is behind me, yeah
Stay low, the cops is spying
But they could never figure out the rocket science
No pocket knife, no pocket iron, yeah
Pots and pans make the pockets wider
Dig 'em a hole, let the property hide 'em
Build a house and throw a party over your dead body
Never said I'll never fail, but never dropped an assignment
Gotta finish what you start or the cops'll find it
Dinner in the park, yeah, may seem cool
But me—I'd rather not let them see my food
I'm staying strapped like Fila shoes
Bet I bust the motherfucker 'til the enemy move, c'mon!
It's my game, nigga, get in and lose
Y'all niggas never do what I do, I do me!

Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr., better known by his stage name Lil Wayne, grew up in the Hollygrove neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana.

At the age of nine, Lil Wayne joined Cash Money Records as the youngest member of the label, and half of the duo, The B.G.‘z, with B.G.. In 1997, Lil Wayne joined the group Hot Boys, which also included rappers Juvenile, B.G., and Young Turk. Lil Wayne gained most of his success with the group’s major selling album Guerrilla Warfare, released in 1999. He has been listed in the 2012 Guinness Book Of World Records for the record of Most US Hot 100 Hits By A Rap Artist with 64 hits between 1999 and 2010.

Wayne is famous for his command of slow, witty lines and metaphorical jokes. His discography includes a slew of successful mixtapes, including Dedication 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6; No Ceilings; and Da Drought 3. His albums consistently garner acclaim, with Tha Carter series all platinum hits. Tha Carter series has been a work of Wayne’s for 13 years and continues to grow with the fifth installment, Tha Carter V released in 2018 (however, it was initially supposed to be released in late 2014). Wayne keeps a regular recording schedule, with studio booths in his tour bus, home, and following him everywhere.
