Gold Herringbone

Gold herringbone (gold herringbone)

Uh, this is the first thing I bought with my check, yeah

Yeah (yeah), Yump (yump), Yeah (yeah), West (west), Yeah (yeah), Yump (yump), Yeah (yeah)

Dijon Shariff Thames is the name my momma gave me

You'll see the side now, born Englewood baby

A lotta y'all wouldn't be here to the game the same time

DJ Quick Drop Quick is the name

The year was 91 I don't remember much then

But I was always with my auntie and my little cousin

See my auntie was a blood

My uncle was in jail

My daddy wasn't there

When my momma did hair

So I spent most of my hours with her

And would listen to that G shit when I was rehears

Sugar Free Quick Snoop 40 Short Dre Pop

(West coast legends I had to be one) Straight drop

You notice this man, the West LA rap

Birthday gang, you should join my set

Not a blood or a crip

Just cockin' my grip

And I put that on the gold herringbone on my neck

1, 2, 3, 4 reppin' for fly niggas we all across the globe

Not a blood or a crip

Just cockin' my grip

And I put that on the gold herringbone on my neck

1, 2, 3, 4 Welcome to Mann's World

Leave them suckers at the door

Not a blood or a crip

Just cockin' my grip

And I put that on the gold herringbone on my neck

Yeah (yeah), Yump (yump), Yeah (yeah), West (west), Yeah (yeah), Yump (uh), Yeah (yeah)

Pick up the pen at 14

Created real magic no mirrors or smoke screens

I was too little to play on those teams

There was a big difference from me and most teens

Into adult things and I started becoming infatuated with money, women, and clothing

They said Mann you'll never make it not in yo dreams (what?)

Now I'm on and they stuffin' LA with no cheese

Shy lil pro see here to give you what you need

I'm here for the long term

You're stuck with me

Oh no I ain't leavin' no time soon

Man I just moved, new home is your iTunes

You notice this man, the West LA rap

Birthday gang, you should join my set

Not a blood or a crip

Just cockin' my grip

And I put that on the gold herringbone on my neck

1, 2, 3, 4 reppin' for fly niggas we all across the globe

Not a blood or a crip

Just cockin' my grip

And I put that on the gold herringbone on my neck

1, 2, 3, 4 Welcome to Mann's World

Leave them suckers at the door

Not a blood or a crip

Just cockin' my grip

And I put that on the gold herringbone on my neck

Yeah (yeah), Yump (yump), Yeah (yeah), West (west), Yeah (yeah), Yump (yump), Yeah (yeah)

Very young boy, who grew up in the urban community

Shit, a gold chain meant the world to us man

When I got my check, first thing I bought

Was this gold herringbone around my neck

Mann's World, West LA (West LA, West LA)

Birthday gang, West LA, Yeah

You notice this man, the West LA rap

Birthday gang, you should join my set

Not a blood or a crip

Just cockin' my grip

And I put that on the gold herringbone on my neck
