Lookin' so good, make his wife pick her phone up
Big gold boulders, in my Rollie

Water all my time, bitch wetter than a Fiji
Parked front of the St. Regis
Artists wanna meet me
Ballin' like an athlete, but I ball all four seasons
Diamonds, that's just like Breezy
Take it easy, Breezy go easy
Big stones in all my pieces

Jewelery so cold, I'm sneezin'
Pull up South Beach, no ceiling
