Em F#m G Bm
You can smell it when I'm walkin' down the street
Em F#m
(Oh yes, we can, oh yes, we can)
G Bm
I can dig rappin',
Em F#m
but a rapper with a ghost writer?
G Bm
What the fuck happened?
Fm
(Oh, no!)
G# Cm
I swore I wouldn't tell,
Fm Gm
but most of y'all sharing bars
G# Cm
Like you got the bottom bunk in a two-man cell
Fm Gm
(A two man cell?)
G# Cm
Something's in the water (Something's in the water)
Fm Gm
And if I gotta brown-nose for some gold
G# Cm
Then I'd rather be a bum than a motherfuckin' baller

You goat-mouth mammyfucker
Em F#m
I was gonna kill a couple rappers, but they did it to themselves
G Bm
Everybody's suicidal, they ain't even need my help
Em F#m
This shit is elementary, I'll probably go to jail
G Bm
If I shoot at your identity and bounce to the left
Em F#m
Stuck a flag in my city, everybody's screamin' "Compton!"
G Bm
I should probably run for mayor when I'm done, to be honest
Em F#m
And I put that on my mama and my baby boo too
N.C Em
Twenty million walkin' out the court buildin', woo woo!
F#m G Bm
Ah yeah, fuck the judge, I made it past twenty-five, and there I was

Life ain't shit but a fat vagina
Em F#m G
Screamin' "Annie, are you okay? Annie, are you okay?"

Limo tinted with the gold plates

Straight from the bottom, this the belly of the beast
G Bm
From a peasant to a prince to a motherfuckin' king
[Chorus]

By the time you hear the next pop
The funk shall be within youâ(*POP*)
