Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I fly like paper, get high like planes

If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name

If you come around here, I make 'em all day

I get one down in a second if you wait

[Verse 2]

I fly like paper, get high like planes

If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name

If you come around here, I make 'em all day

I get one down in a second if you wait

[Verse 3]

Sometimes I think sitting on trains

Every stop I get to I'm clocking that game

Everyone's a winner, we're making our fame

Bona fide hustler making my name

[Verse 4]

Sometimes I think sitting on trains

Every stop I get to I'm clocking that game

Everyone's a winner, we're making our fame

Bona fide hustler making my name

[Verse 5]

All I wanna do

And

And take all your money

[Verse 6]

All I wanna do

And

And take all your money

[Verse 7]

All I wanna do

And

And take all your money

[Verse 8]

All I wanna do

And

And take all your money

[Verse 9]

Pirate skulls and bones

Sticks and stones and weed and bombs

Running when we hit 'em

Lethal poison for the system

[Verse 10]

Pirate skulls and bones

Sticks and stones and weed and bombs

Running when we hit 'em

Lethal poison for the system

[Verse 11]

No one on the corner has swagger like us

Hit me on my burner prepaid wireless

We pack and deliver like UPS trucks

Already going hell just pumping that gas

[Verse 12]

No one on the corner has swagger like us

Hit me on my burner prepaid wireless

We pack and deliver like UPS trucks

Already going hell just pumping that gas

[Verse 13]

All I wanna do

And

And take your money

[Verse 14]

All I wanna do

And

And take your money

[Verse 15]

All I wanna do

And

And take your money

[Verse 16]

All I wanna do

And

And take your money

[Verse 17]

Some some some some murder

Some some let go

Some some some some murder

Some some let go

[Verse 18]

All I wanna do

(All I wanna do)

And

And take your money

[Verse 19]

All I wanna do

(All I wanna)

And

And take your money

[Verse 20]

All I wanna do

(All I wanna do)

And

And take your money

[Verse 21]

All I wanna do

(All I wanna do)

And

And take your money
