[Hook: Young Thug]
In the streets niggas say what's the word on 'em
Nothin' much, know that I’m worthy, homie
We in the new Bentleys with the birdies on 'em
Hop in the car and pull the curtains on 'em
Hop in the car and Pull the curtains on 'em
Hop in the car and Pull the curtains on 'em
We in the new Bentleys with the birdies on 'em
Hop in the car and pull the curtains on 'em

[Verse 1: Young Thug]
A nigga bitch? I'm flirtin' on 'em
The plug? Puttin' my workers on 'em
Big Peaches, what's twerkin' homie?
Nigga rich, ROC Crew still lurkin', homie
Kembe, he got it, Big Twan, he got it, plus Bobby got it
Ain't no way to stop it
I am the best, whose up for next?
I'll eat your chest, I'll eat your flesh
ROC Crew's the streets, you dudes are meat
You dudes are feast, I am a chief
Big Bool's a chief
And they red light nigga talk about me
When I catch 'em in the street in Bentleys on V, I'm gone

[Verse 2: Shawty Lo]
Bankhead, but I'm the king of the A
Failed school, streets gave me an A
I called my plug to say ay Jose
I need 50 and I need 'em today
Speakin' of 50, just signed with 50
Now L-O worth 10 more milli
Now I'm back with the Asanti Flip Flop
(?) back I'mma bust your whole gat
And I'm from Bowen Homes
RIP and we gone move on
Shawty Lo, I rep for the real niggas
Young Thug and them Cleveland Ave niggas

[Verse 3: Skooly]
Nigga help me
The car's too big
Weed's too thick and your cigar's too thin (dumbass)
My bitch is the shit and yeah them broads do friends
You sweat the point 5's, my cigar is two tens
Fuck they talkin' bout we get money then?
Rich kidz for life we still stuntin' bitch
Nigga playin'? I'll clip him
Hit him in his hip, he flippin'
Hit him in the leg, he trippin'
I'm trippin', did I kill him?
And I'm a big stunner
Thug you my big brother
Shouts out to Little Slugger
He'll spit a wing for ya

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.
