[Verse 1: Macho]

Feedin' the baby in the kitchen while…

Seem like the whole city go against me
Every time I'm in the street, I hear—

They say the governor collect all of our taxes, except
When we in…

Sleepin' in the living room of my momma's pad
Reality struck, I seen the white car crash
Hit the light…
