Full song lyrics
Man, these people took my kids from me
Then they closed my bank account
I got so much anger in me got no way to take it out
Think that I’m stuck in a matrix
Where the f*ck is my nitrous?
Yes, I am a cuck, I like when people f*ck on my b*tch
The shit that I’m posting on Twitter
They telling me “Hey don’t say that”
How n*ggas can’t see me in public?
I’m driving an all chrome Maybach
With all of the money and fame
I still can’t get my kids back
With all of the money and fame
I still don’t get to see my children
N*ggas see my Twitter
But they don’t see how I be feeling
So I became a n*zi
Yеah bitch I’m the villain
[Chorus]
N*gga heil H*tler
N*gga heil H*tler
They don’t understand the things I say on Twitter
N*gga heil H*tler
They don’t understand the things I say on Twitter
All my n*ggas n*zis
N*gga heil H*tler
N*gga heil H*tler
N*gga heil H*tler
All my n*ggas n*zis
N*gga heil H*tler
Ooh, ooh, ooh
N*gga heil H*tler
Ooh, ooh, ooh
N*gga heil H*tler
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Chorus ]
N*gga heil H*tler
They don’t understand the things I say on Twitter
N*gga heil H*tler
They don’t understand the things I say on Twitter
All my n*ggas n*zis
N*gga heil H*tler
N*gga heil H*tler
N*gga heil H*tler
All my n*ggas n*zis
