On Them Pills Lyrics

[Intro]
Now who is the public enemy?
He should be too embarrassed to even walk back through this motherfucker again
When he-when he comes down, somebody's gonna say some shit
He gone pay
It can’t be that fuckin' crazy to come outside and do some shit like this
He's on some out-there shit
Somebody done gave him something

[Chorus]
Them niggas on them pills
Them bitches on them pills
Poppin’ shit is why they can't pay they bills
They be sweatin' (Sweatin'), they need gills
Fuck that chronic smoke, they want them chemicals
Them niggas on them pills
Them bitches on them pills
Poppin' shit is why they can't pay they bills
They be sweatin' (Sweatin'), they need gills
Fuck that chronic smoke, they want them chemicals

[Verse 1]
Uh, you’s a drugstore cowboy
Everything you put in your mouth look like a Altoid
Crazy ass niggas love a bitch named Molly (Bitch named Molly)
Passed out on the floor, go and get a dolly
I saw your boy-boy in the street butt naked (Butt naked)
Wormin’ up and down 122nd
His momma tried to stop him and them youngsters had to mob 'em
So cops tried to pop ’em but them bullets couldn't drop 'em
Damn
[Chorus]
Them niggas on them pills
Them bitches on them pills
Poppin' shit is why they can’t pay they bills
They be sweatin' (Sweatin'), they need gills
Fuck that chronic smoke, they want them chemicals
Them niggas on them pills
Them bitches on them pills
Poppin' shit is why they can't pay they bills
They be sweatin' (Sweatin'), they need gills
Fuck that chronic smoke, they want them chemicals

[Verse 2]
Baby, if you feelin' horny, take two of these and wake up in the mornin'
With a nigga snorin', you don't even know
And his half cousin and his little bro
Damn, are you a ho from Idaho? (Idaho)
Hell yeah, especially off that chemical (Chemical)
Them fuckin' drugs'll take you to that pinnacle (Pinnacle)
Drop you in the snow (Ho) with it ten below

[Chorus]
Them niggas on them pills
Them bitches on them pills
Poppin' shit is why they can't pay they bills
They be sweatin' (Sweatin'), they need gills
Fuck that chronic smoke, they want them chemicals
Them niggas on them pills
Them bitches on them pills
Poppin' shit is why they can't pay they bills
They be sweatin' (Sweatin'), they need gills
Fuck that chronic smoke, they want them chemicals
[Verse 3]
He thizz and got them Oxycontin (Oxycontin)
Got them front teeth all rotten (All rotten)
Viagra mixed with ecstasy is the reason for your latest pregnancy (Pregnancy)
You the Joker off that Heath Ledger (Heath Ledger)
I'ma smoker her (Why?) 'cause weed's better
You niggas start to panic when you off that Xanax
Drownin' in the gutter, you think it's the Atlantic

[Chorus]
Them niggas on them pills
Them bitches on them pills
Poppin' shit is why they can't pay they bills
They be sweatin' (Sweatin'), they need gills
Fuck that chronic smoke, they want them chemicals

[Outro]
My name is Jesus Christ, I just discovered that today
My name is Jesus Christ and I did not-yes, I asked for this
I was a thirsty bitch and I made a deal with the devil, sir
But I'm gonna hit a lick, okay?
Do you believe in Jesus Christ?
You do?
Do you believe in me?
Yeah? I won't let you in then, bitch
'Cause I joined the other side
I joined the other side!
Dame más gasolina
Dame más gasolina
Do you believe me now?
No
Okay, fuck you, bitch
