Ridin' around town in a drop-top coupe and the motor in the trunk, you can hear it
F***in' this bitch in a orgy, I'm having a snow-bunny hold up her legs

Take the yacht and we sail to an island

• WHATSAPP (WASSAM)
Incase you were wondering, “wassam” is Atlanta slang for basically saying, “What’s up?” or “What’s
