Everything that I got I got from slanging birds
Niggers know I cut my porch to baby elephant
Ain't talking money thing you got to ...
Everything I got I got from selling shit
Who I sell it too is irrelevant
Pocket full of ... whatever
I pull my dick out and tell them ... whatever
I just throw it on the block nigger from 9 to 9
And I sell it at least 9 times
... my baby mother cheating her God ...
[Chorus:]
Everything that I got I got from slanging birds
Everything that I got I got from slanging birds
That's my mother fucker work nigger
That's my work
Everything that I got I got from slanging birds
Everything that I got I got from slanging birds
That's my mother fucker work nigger
That's my work
I am slangin tickets I am slangin ...

Everything that I got I got from slanging birds
Everything that I got I got from slanging birds
That's my mother fucker work nigger

Slangin Byrds
Released on 2 Chainz's 2011 album T.R.U Realigion, "Slangin Byrds" stands as a quintessential example of his mid-2010s sound, blending Southern hip-hop rhythms with a melodic, almost country-inflected vocal delivery. The track exemplifies the artist's ability to pivot between aggressive lyricism and smoother, hook-driven melodies that defined his discography during this era. As a key component of the album's narrative, the recording captures the raw energy of the Atlanta scene while maintaining a polished production quality that became a hallmark of 2 Chainz's work. The song reflects the broader trend of incorporating regional dialects and storytelling into mainstream rap, contributing to the artist's signature style that balanced commercial appeal with authentic regional identity.
