100 Keys lyrics

[Chorus: Big Sean]

Ay, ay

I'm from a big city, trying to make a living

Come to my hood, everybody get it

And for that paper all the wrong things sound right

Where I'm from they push 100 keys and it sound like

Where I'm from they push 100 keys and it sound like

Young niggas getting money, young niggas getting money

Just a bittersweet symphony

[Verse 1: Rick Ross]

I play the keys, handle dope, Barry Manilow

The game a bitch, but at times she sweet like cantaloupe

Hit the road, key of coke in the manifold

Triple beam dreams with a trunk full of scattered clothes

Japanese denim, down south numbers

Hit it once, trust it'll make a fat fiend stumble

Do the speed limit, Argo shoes

Call 'em penny loafers, they a pretty penny too

I'm tippin' strippers but I call it penny pinchin'

She talkin' shit but I can get her titties lifted

My new crib got its own city limit

Motherfucker got his own city in it

Blue marble on the floor, wet as salt water

Underboss I'll just play the holes like a golf course

[Chorus: Big Sean]

I'm from a big city, trying to make a living

Come to my hood, everybody get it

And for that paper all the wrong things sound right

Where I'm from they push 100 keys and it sound like

Where I'm from they push 100 keys and it sound like

Young niggas getting money, young niggas getting money

Just a bittersweet symphony

[Verse 2: Pusha T]

One hundred keys, one hundred please

My gesundheit could make a whole city sneeze

Walked the mud jungle where they grinded out the leaves

So they swarm to my honey comb, hideout for the bees

You know what this sound like, money counters' sound bites

Machine gun fire, name ringin' through the town like

Church bells ringin', know what he was found like?

Colombian necktie over hospital gown white

She live on her knees, I live in a condo in the trees

The air's a little thinner that I breathe

The Iron Man Audi, let the top striptease

My life's in slow motion, but the watch screamin' freeze

Ugh, young nigga gettin' money

The feds' dragnet couldn't take nothin' from me

The decoy car is a crash test dummy

What follows is a hundred of 'em, wrapped like a mummy

[Chorus: Big Sean]

I'm from a big city, trying to make a living

Come to my hood, everybody get it

And for that paper all the wrong things sound right

Where I'm from they push 100 keys and it sound like

Where I'm from they push 100 keys and it sound like

Young niggas getting money, young niggas getting money

Just a bittersweet symphony

[Verse 3: Big Sean]

B.I., boi

And they gon' risk a hundred lives

So they could rock a hundred whites

Baguettes lookin' like a hundred lights

Man when Blade died my city cried a hundred nights

Yeah I got a main girl, but I done hit a hundred tight

Every wrong I do I'm steady tryna do a hundred rights

Got her for cheap, compare the price

My nigga keep that low key, Barry White

And don't worry 'bout the info

From where they rob Pintos and could afford Enzos

Cause everybody knows keys open doors, but bricks open windows

Counting a hundred hundreds, more by more

Built this from the tile up, floor by floor

Talk shit, I'll send 'em door by door

Made for the Snow White like 4 by 4s

[Chorus: Big Sean]

I'm from a big city, trying to make a living

Come to my hood, everybody get it

And for that paper all the wrong things sound right

Where I'm from they push 100 keys and it sound like

Where I'm from they push 100 keys and it sound like

Young niggas getting money, young niggas getting money

Just a bittersweet symphony
