Thug World Bitch

[Hook]
I'm high, I'm high, I'm high right now
We the plug, I don't need a plug
We is the plug, we is the plug, we is the plug, we is the plug
We ain't

[Verse 1]
My crew the number one ballers baby
My crew the number one ballers baby
Been gettin' numbers forgettin' to call 'em baby
I might fuck her, in two days I'mma give them all a baby
We ride like Marta baby
I'mma motherfuckin' Martian baby
You a motherfuckin' walker baby
If you ever, ever play they gone be choppin' you baby
Shit, I'm up in the 'io, uh
Or I'm up in your ho, uh, and someone toe ya dig?
Or I'm up in the Bentley and them tires skinny
And my ring worth twenty
Let go

[Hook]
I'm high, I'm high, I'm high right now
We the plug, I don't need a plug
We is the plug, we is the plug, we is the plug, we is the plug
We ain't

[Verse 2]
I say - I bet you can't do it like me, I bet you can't do it like me
I'm so high right now, I'm BEAD
I'm flyee, FLYEE
You're a thottie, THOTTIE
Hold up, freeze me, punk ass ho tryna tease me
Really wanna fuck my tattoos, tattoo man please leave me
My wrist is cold but the heat on me degrees me
The ho made Young Thug nut in two minutes, look easy me
Shit, either I need new Bally’s or my shoes was Clearance
Or I was drunk off your nanny
My tint means stay back
The 2012 Maybach, I just bought Maybach
Let go

[Hook]
I'm high, I'm high, I'm high right now
We the plug, I don't need a plug
We is the plug, we is the plug, we is the plug, we is the plug
We ain't

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.
