Lyrics and translation

Original

Everybody know we don't play

Whoo!

If it ain't life, it ain't long (ooh)

If it ain't life, it ain't long (damn!)

Death before dishonor, tell a nigga calm down

I'm trying to get him for his crown

Dreamt about this shit when I was back on lockdown

I learned my shit inside the pound

I'm a dog, headshot

With the dawg, red dot

Pop-pop, headlock, dreadlock

It's time to slide, there's opps

Hold up, wait, there's cops (whoo)

Pull up, err, and pop-pop-pop-pop (everybody know we don't play)

Yeah, uh, see I don't know why they cry

'Til we see 'em die, we will not be satisfied

If they try to take a life, then we gots to take a life (gots to take a life)

If it ain't life, then every sentence light

Make a nigga take flight if we try to take ice (take ice)

Stackin' up the cash, makin' money off your vice

Fuck a double back, niggas comin' back thrice (back thrice)

Coming back three times, four times, five

Equals 20 on his head, guaranteed to leave him dead

I wish I could change how my niggas like to live

The problem is the change ain't enough to pay the bills

So for what the ice worth, they gon' leave your body chill (put the drop on 'em)

Bumpin' jazz while my bitch clean the house, she keep it fresh

She don't know my niggas en route to leave a mess (mess)

Wish that I could change how they think, it got me stressed

'Cause they live inside of hell while my life is hella blessed

Yeah, don't say, yeah, don't say

Everybody know we don't play (krra, krra)

Yeah, don't say, yeah, don't say

Everybody know we don't play

I'm a dog, headshot

With the dawg, red dot

Pop-pop, headlock, dreadlock (everybody know we don't play)

It's time to slide, there's opps

Hold up, wait, there's cops (whoo)

Pull up, err, and pop-pop-pop-pop (everybody know we don't play)

I don't know why they try

There's no dry eyes after drive-bys

Knockin' Buju Banton, boom, bye-bye (bye-bye)

You pussy niggas miscountin' all them nine lives

Beggin' for attention and mentionin' me

Get your name penciled in, these guns ain't whisperin'

Why my thumbs twittlin', pick an island, Gilligan

Sit your bitch poolside, sun, turn to cinnamon

I don't do rememberin', gettin' money right now

Drive 2026, I don't even ask how

LV Cash Cow, St. Jude's cash out

I can't even podcast, givin' all my past out

Watchin' niggas crash out, tellin' who they ask about

Interview with anybody sittin' in a glass house

I'ma pull that mask out, all you niggas mascots

Lookin' at the difference 'tween the have and the have-nots (everybody know we don't play)

Push

Yeah, don't say, yeah, don't say

Everybody know we don't play (krra, krra)

Yeah, don't say, yeah, don't say

Everybody know we don't play

I'm a dog, headshot

With the dawg, red dot

Pop-pop, headlock, dreadlock (everybody know we don't play)

It's time to slide, there's opps

Hold up, wait, there's cops (whoo)

Pull up, err, and pop-pop-pop-pop (everybody know we don't play)
