Sayin' that I'm Hollywood, Hollywood
I don't (?) Hollywood, Hollywood
If I ever go Hollywood, Hollywood
I'mma always keep it HollyHood, HollyHood
Because I gotta sack, I'm never turnin' back
I don't know how to act, the haters kiss my ass
I'm Hollywood, Hollywood
I'mma always keep it HollyHood, HollyHood

[Verse 1: Young Thug]
I'm a big dog, aka timberwolf
I'm lookin' for Ms. Berry in HollyHood
Talkin' curves like a horn, I'm a fuckin' bull
Do it pass me a pipe, no goon
Leanin' like a motherfuckin' kickstand
I'll kill any man
I'm on HollyHood's ass
But I do got Hollywood plans
And I need a (?) cause my man's like Hollywood plan
But it is on the way though
The ho play with my dick like play-dough
I got a big a-go, oops I mean ego
But I eat her like an Eggo
And she drink me like (?)

[Verse 2: Aston Martin Phi]
I'm lookin' at my Rollie, it's about that time
I see them niggas slickin' but they can't stop my grind
I'mma keep on grindin', keep on shinin'
Get where you can't stand
It's Aston Martin Philos, I'm livin' in the fast lane
In the club throwin' money up, I see her watchin' me
Throw another band, give 'em more reason to rob me
You know I keep that .40 and you know I got my 40 homie
And you can go and ask the big homies
In the (?) with my (?), you know I'm pimpin' shit
Them boonies been cutthroat, they flexin' (?) half of it
If you want it we got it
And if you cockin' we robbin'

[Verse 3: Skypad War]
If a nigga can't read then (?) flip the script
But ya'll weren't with me when I took them trips
300 pounds and they stuffed in the salon
I get pulled over, I won't see tomorrow
But I ain't trippin', I'm a G about the situation
Pull up on me, give ya something, pay your probation
Hollywood, I ain't never that
But when I get to Hollywood, I ain't comin' back
I'mma hustler so I grind like it's my last night
But like a college student I gotta get this paper right
(?) so give us five mics
(?)

I don't know how to act, the haters kiss my ass
I'm Hollywood, Hollywood
I'mma always keep it HollyHood, HollyHood

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.
