[Hook]
I'm gonna act like I don't but you know I wanna

Thugger got a million dollar persona
Girl you got me hooked just like cocaine

I'm gone make it rain shawty, I can never be scared of you
I can never be scared of you, I can never be scared of you
I'm gone make it rain baby, I can never be scared of you

[Verse 1]
You're a scaredy cat, I'ma scare a cat
I'm just playin', I love necks and brats
I was raised up off similac
But now, I eat chips and bakes
Goonies never slack, so come here
I can change your ears and career
I'm smokin' that sour leave a bitch in tears
This .40 electric just like a eel
And I am fuckin' for real
You got to know I ride for my bitch
And you got to know she one of the reasons I'm rich
And you got to know she have fun ridin' that shhh
And you got to know she can't wait it ain't free fish, yeah

[Verse 2]
Be with me, you'd rather babe
Fuck all of your friends, them hoes are scandalous babe
No lie you might can't get my dick for ransom baby
No homo but the dick so big that you might get captured babe
And I see you dressed to impress you the best
You a mess, you make them young hoes stress
They rockin' Jordans, you in a Hermes dress
The cheapest one cost $1500, no less
She wear Fendi slippers when she hop up out the shower
I get close behind her, like a e-way in Rush hour
She wear real boogers, she say princess cuts like powder
All my bros got power, baby girl, but we not Austin you

[Hook]

I can never be scared of you, I can never be scared of you
I'm gone make it rain baby, I can never be scared of you

Jeffery Lamar Williams (b. August 16, 1991), popularly known as Young Thug, is an innovative trap artist from Atlanta known for his experimental vocal styles on versatile production ranging from hard trap beats to experimental pop records. Thug is known as a pioneer for much of the 2010s generation of rap, and his constant cosigns, features, and chart presence cement his status as a leader in the streaming era and current rap scene.

While Young Thug released his first mixtape in 2011, it wasn’t until fellow ATL trap artist Gucci Mane took Thug under his wing in 2013 that he began to see great success as an artist. That year, Thug released his first major hit, “Stoner,” which quickly gained viral traction on social media, then “Danny Glover,” which propelled him to an even larger scale of success. After Gucci Mane went to prison in 2013, Thug saw success by re-aligning himself with Cash Money Records’s own Birdman and his newly-formed Rich Gang collective with the hit single “Lifestyle” and a collaborative mixtape before officially signing to 300 Ent. in 2015. Under 300, Thug continued to release many more singles, mixtapes, and features, gradually boosting his popularity before releasing his debut album, So Much Fun, which topped the Billboard 200 on August 31, 2019.

After 2015’s “Best Friend” became Thug’s first platinum single, his 2016 collaboration with Travis Scott, “pick up the phone,” became his new highest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100. This would later be succeeded by “Havana” with Camila Cabello, the best-selling single of 2018. However, his current highest-charting song as lead artist is “Hot,” which topped the Rolling Stone 100 and peaked at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100, surpassing his previous biggest hit, “The London,” which peaked at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100.
