Quotable Lyrics:

I wish I could go back in time to tell myself, 'You gon' be rich'
When I'm in Miami, I feel like LeBron, number six
Everyday I wake up, I'm feelin' myself, like Bey' and Nicki
I just bit her, yeah, I just bit her, I have her a hick'
I take her shoppin' all the time, but that's my girl so I ain't trippin'
I'm in London, I just left Harrods and Selfridges
