[Intro: A$AP Rocky]
Bbm
Young man, brotha brotha, you gotta fight for somethin'
Bbm
Stand for somethin', gotta understand, gotta make the plays
Bbm
Stick to it, get through, write yours, ride your wave, just keep it true
Bbm
We'll fight the blues, we'll fight the blues
Bbm
Brotha man, young man, let me tell you somethin'
Bbm
Young man, brotha man, brotha man
Bbm
You gotta fight for somethin', stand for somethin'
That's what the poem told me
Bm
It was a greater poet like you know it but
Bm
I'd rather talk about how my neck is frozen and I
Bm
I'd write a song about the banging hoes and then
Bm
Stay up in the bitches while she dozing
[Chorus: French Montana]
Bbm
When I went to my brotha, told him, "Help me please"
Bbm
Now we hop out the PJs posted by the P
Bbm
My old bitch yellin', "Come back, come back
Come back, babe
Bbm
Come back (come back) come back (come back)
Come back (come back) babe
[Verse 1: A$AP Rocky & Snoop Dogg]
Bbm
Harlem nights, quick speed, Godspeed
Bbm
Speed of light, Grease Lightnin', leather on my six-speed bike
Bbm
Bicycle tires, icicle diamonds, popsicle stripes
Pop (sicles) pop (sicles) for the Klondikes
Bbm
Pop-pop wheelies on the dirty bikes, 15 sellin' China white
Bbm
Cops stoppin' if you opposite of white
Pop, pop like you opposite of right
Bbm
Take heed, lil' nigga, lowkey, take lead on them niggas
[Bridge: A$AP Rocky & Frank Ocean]
Smooth dude riding 'round the boulevard
Bbm
Back in the days was on the train
Bbm
Ride the bus before I ride another nigga wave
Bbm
Beautiful, the water's flat like ass is pre-Onika (yeah)
Bbm
You the smaller version, you the baby sneaker
[Verse 2: A$AP Rocky]
Bm
Flacko, I wonder how it feel to live or be like you
Bm
Album number three and keep it G like Q
Bm
Heard you niggas get fly like G, like 2
Bm
Nah, more like 4, like 3, not 2
Bbm
Shittin' on these niggas like P, like U
Drip Raheem and Q, got Hi-C like juice
Bbm
Mama hubby got life, he got three strikes too
Bbm
Real niggas bleed like me, like you
Bbm
That's why I got a beam with a green light too
Bbm
I don't even make a scene, I just swing right through
Bbm
I'm just stayin' on my Qs and my Ps like soup
Bbm
Walkin' in my shoes, follow me like suit
[Pre-Chorus: A$AP Rocky]
Bbm
Brotha man, young man, let me tell you somethin'

You're a cornstar, all you fuck is corn broads (you fucking pop)

Frenchie faux pas 'cause you ain't had no pa
Db
Your deal got catches like an outfielder

Db
Getting that God's view from towers
Lookin' downward like I'm Donald Trump
