Purple Swag

Wale · Other Songs - Wale

This is for my niggas gettin' high on the regular

This is for my bitches gettin' high on the regular



My shirt, purple label my shirt

Purple haze in my j, everything purple nigga fucked up



Fresh off the road two mil on it, a little nigga with a little money

And to be honest I fathered a lot of brothers in this motherfucker

I think I'm motherfuckin' phil drummond

Real live nigga, straight nigga, still love it

And I ain't talkin' bout the j's got new 11s

I am talkin' bout whoever, whoever say it's a 9

If she mine I'mma take her to a newer level

Who better, take your time, take your time like a new bezel

I got rich from a little struggle



I'm like roots, you a new shovel

And I'm the truth nigga, still wellin'

In a rello, cigarillo to the cerebellum

Rich forever, double m, we forever winnin'

A nigga throwin' up the set, how ya stomach feelin'

Probably sick of a nigga livin' how a nigga livin'

Even better, come and get it, see my pen is illin'



Eyes low, widest eyes, 5-4

Pockets probably like fried food

Turn a good vagina into a typhoon

I don't understand how y'all move

'Cuz y'all don't understand I will not lose

Who trill as me, roll two of tree

Y'all truancy, I'm high school

And everything is purple

And my ralph lauren be earth-tone



And now I'm sippin' syrup slow, I'm out h-town

With young kirko, and that h right on my belt loop

I call em up, they might fall through

And my main bitch, she just started school

And my weed man should just sell flutes

High on loud when I be ridin' out



I'm on a thousand islands like mcdonald's cows

Nigga g's up, like the team is up

Y'all be in love, like the howard crowd

My direction good, well-rounded type

When I'm down and out, I get up and right

Niggas from where I'm from they don't fuck with fights

When it's trouble, they blocka and fuck a life



For a fuckin' nike or a couple sprites

So my cup is full, too much pain to fight

And I'm indecisive when the things are light

Never miss these things, see my game precise



Nigga everything is purple, and these mc's is urkel

You send me beats via email, I'mma send them back in a hearse

Look purple label my shirt, purple shit in my cup

Purple haze in my j, everything purple nigga fucked up
