  46. I grew up, really wanted gold fronts
  47. But that’s what you get when Wu Tang raised you
  48. Y’all can’t stop me, go hard like I got an 808 in my heart beat
  49. And I’m eating at the beat like you gave a little speed to a great white shark on shark week

  65. So we put our hands up like the ceiling can’t hold us
  66. Like the ceiling can’t hold us
