Young Soulja Boy, I keep the money and the strap
Kick up in yo' crip, bitch I'm looking for where you at
Heard he got them pounds and the bricks, bitch where they at
Riding through the hood and you know that I'm the man
Hundred bricks in, I can do this shit like Tony
Nigga disrespect, man these niggas so phony
I'm riding through the hood and I got that choppa' on me
AK47 leave a pussy by his lonely
Disrespect my team then you know I'm sending shots
Come in through that Veneno and then I drop the top
Soulja Boy Tell 'Em man I do this shit a lot
Wake up in the morning and then you know I whip the pot
Water whippin yolo, breaking bricks down to crumbs
Nigga where you from, nigga I'm from zone 1
Coming through the hood and you know I keep a gun
Shoot it out for fun, shoot all in yo' home
Run up in yo' crib, taking them bricks and then I'm gone
Call the plug up and I finesse him for his strong
Run off with his pack, now he say he say he gonna get me
Nigga catch me slipping, I'ma hit him with 'bout fifty
Soulja Boy Tell 'Em I tote a choppa' and a semi
Shoot it 'till it's empty, killers all in yo' chimney
PA, m2thaK them niggas riding with me
Damn it's a good day, my watch it cost 100K

[Hook]
Early in the morning, I'm on the phone trapping
10 million dollars, I got it off of rapping
Coming through the hood and you know I'm ready for that action
The bitches tryna to set me up, you know I can't trust 'em
I'm riding wit my squad, niggas try us and we busting
I'm riding wit my squad, niggas try us and we busting
I'm riding wit my squad, niggas try us and we busting
I'm riding wit my squad, niggas try us and we busting

Soulja Boy

DeAndre Cortez Way (b. July 28, 1990), better known as his stage name Soulja Boy, is a rapper, producer, and social media influencer born in Chicago, Illinois and raised in Atlanta, Georgia whose debut single “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and would hold that spot for seven non-consecutive weeks.

At 15 years old, Soulja began uploading songs to SoundClick and eventually moved to YouTube and MySpace. By March 2007, he came up with the concept behind “Crank That” and uploaded the song—and a video of its accompanying dance—online. Two months later, in May 2007, “Crank That” started to go viral. He signed to Interscope Records in the same month. By October, his major label debut album Souljaboytellem.com was released and peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard 200. But critics quickly blasted his simplistic lyrics and unorthodox flows, questioning whether or not he’d just be a one-hit wonder.

“Crank That” earned him a Grammy nomination and he would continue to find success with the songs “Kiss Me Thru the Phone”, “Turn My Swag On”, and “Pretty Boy Swag”. He’s released mixtape after mixtape, left Interscope, made noise with rumors of signing with YMCMB and eventually launched own label Stacks on Deck Entertainment.
