I called a cousin who called a cousin who called a friend,
who called a couple dozen cousins,
cause it doesn't end



My cousin Justin's looking for a little some-some
for a certain someone, some girl he wants to be touching

Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something

Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something

We were just discussing our cousin Justin.
Wasn't Justin the cousin who just made the honor roll, got the colleges buzzin'?

Are we close to our cousin Justin?
Are we supposed to trust him?

Are we thugs to our cousin Justin? We don't sell drugs, man

Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something

Did you get it yet?

No, I'm about to get it

Is your dealer a student?

I got you, girl. Don't sweat it

Let me know when you got it

As soon as I can

I'll find a way to repay you, Justin

Oh, man!

Yo, what is up with this fussin'?
This isn't up for discussion.
This is our cousin coming to us.
He's our blood, and we love him

Ah, look at Justin. He blushing

Our little Justin is crushing

Sorry for rushing to judgement

Why should we get you these drugs?

Love!

What?

Only if you believe in love.
Love!

Love! Love! Only if you believe in love

Get him the stuff

I hand my cousin twenty-fiveducats,
I'm sweating buckets.
He hands me a sandwich bag with some little green nuggets.
I got it for you

X-O. Cool

You want it now?

See you at school

Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something
Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something
