[Intro]
I was sitting on them lil' toes
I was robbing on my street, just up the road
I turned fifteen and turned to papi
Got sick and tired of runnin' from my daddy
He a retired football player, so he gon' run after me
I remember he made a sale running the factory
When he said "Taco Bell," he meant bag of weed

[Chorus]
I was inspired by that shit, and no, you never never heard a song
Cry like this (Woo), ayy
I told my niggas you don't wanna go out to die like this
I had a dream, it was my opps, I pray to God I don't-don't-don't don't wanna die like this
I got a cold heart while I got that shit
And if I die, my momma gon' slice her wrists
I don't wanna see my momma die like this (Oh), ayy

[Verse 1]
What the fuck you mean put my gun down, motherfucka'? (Huh?)
You must've heard about Trayvon Martin, you motherfucka' (Go)
Yeah, have you heard about lil' Haiti in Atlanta?
Do you know he swapped the thirties out for the nanas? Hm (Brrat)
Do you know he got birds in Hannah Montana? Hm
He go for my brother, get sucker faced by the whole crew (Woo)
Hydraulics, them big body, I don't got no dough (Hydraulics)
My partners the most G niggas like tough, strong (Tough, strong)
Got a cougar suckin' my dick, blowing me like a Trombone (Yeah)
If I leave her, she gon' call me like I'm Tyrone (Yeah)
Everyday my motherfuckin' life foldin'
Ain't got time to be makin' all these sad songs
I got my clout up, yeah
Good hair bitch, yeah, her scalp up, yeah (Hey)
Yeah, hit my cup on 'em, uh
Take it to the stream, bro
Molly make my cup warm (Molly make my cup warm)
Nigga, I did pitt pour
Watch me mix it with some Red Bull (Red Bull)
Hop on top of my dick and do a split

[Chorus]
I was inspired by that shit, and no, you never never heard a song
Cry like this (Woo), ayy
I told my niggas you don't wanna go out to die like this
I had a dream, it was my opps, I pray to God I don't-don't-don't don't wanna die like this (Pray to God)
I got a cold heart while I got that shit (Cold heart)
And if I die, my momma gone slice her wrists (I know it)
I don't wanna see my momma die like this, ayy (Ayy)

[Verse 2]
Philippe town, my main girl go wild (Ha)
Money in your pocket, the same shit I spend on my blouse, uh
I'm shed real tears when they caught [?] in Austin (Facts)
No power, now I'm the pilot
I'm sippin' red 'til the result came back straight for the Actavis
I told them if it was fate, I'ma fucking kill him, no cappin'
Gave him a chance to bring my money back in my James Bond nap-sack (C'mon)
I feel like I'm the best shooter, I'll peel James Bond cap back (Drrt, drrt)
I go Max Payne on the bitch, yeah, pure cocaine (Woo)
I was high as a train, I was higher than space (Let's go, ah)
Hop off off a plane, uh
It's a private too, I told your bitch get over here like Ryu
Hop out the Lamb, 'bout to put 'em in a bag like a tycoon
[?] no Fubu (Let's go)
I re-upped all my tooth and I'm a new dude

[Chorus]
I was inspired by that shit, and no, you never heard a sound like this (Woo), ayy
I told my niggas you don't wanna go out to die like this
I'm tryin' to tell ya, I had a dream, it was the opps, I pray to God that I don't-don't-don't-don't don't die like this
I had a cold heart how I got like this
And if I die, my mom gon' slice her wrists
I don't wanna see my momma die like this, ayy

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.
