When this shit drop, I was like 16
Tryna get some head from a mixed thing
Big dreams, say good by to ripped jeans
Nigga got a job
had my little wallet
worst fear is getting robbed
for my last 50 dollars that I had left over
5 dollars in my pocket
nigga in my left shoulder
minimum wage 5.15 13's on the whip
kept my shit clean
Actually that was my momma shit
but I'm driving round town on my Obama's shit
middle class my ass just ta get a tank of gas
Tryna get some head from a mixed thing
Big dreams, say good by to ripped jeans
Nigga got a job
had my little wallet
worst fear is getting robbed
for my last 50 dollars that I had left over
5 dollars in my pocket
nigga in my left shoulder
minimum wage 5.15 13's on the whip
kept my shit clean
Actually that was my momma shit
but I'm driving round town on my Obama's shit
middle class my ass just ta get a tank of gas
