36 Ounces and a Mercedes lyrics
by Benny the Butcher
[Verse 1: Benny the Butcher]
For the b*tches who never judged us and hustlers who kept it solid (I 'member you)
Out collectin' commas, my trap like direct deposit
We was catchin' boxes, reckless shoppin', so check your pockets (Uh-huh)
I stretched and rocked it, I made double and kept the profit (Facts)
That's how they made me, yeah, thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes, n*gga (Uh)
My life a movie, trust me, Martin Scorsese couldn't write this sh*t (Ah)
I'm on an island trip watchin' Tyson clips
I'm twice as rich, so my diamond kit do MacGyver tricks
This how bеin' thorough look, I sold dope and got hooked (Uh-huh)
Then took advicе from a crook, but got my knowledge out a book
I rent a mansion in LA and tell her call up her friends
It's f*cked up how enemies last longer than friends, God (Damn)
[Chorus: Benny the Butcher]
And all I wanted was a Benz and a brick, uh
Thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes, yeah
All we wanted was a Benz and a brick, uh
Thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes, let's go
I risked my freedom for that Benz and that brick, uh
Thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes, yeah
All we wanted was a Benz and a brick, yeah
Thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes (Let's go)
[Verse 2: Benny the Butcher]
I got thoughts in my brain racin', but voices sayin', "Be patient"
We frontrunners, we crunch numbers just like we Asian
Went from locked up in cages, now we popped up on stages
Without no guap from no major, my name on top of your playlist (Ah)
Yeah, it's talent, but you gotta know it's hustle involved (We still hustlin')
It's eat or get ate, bein' from the jungle and all (Trenches)
Before I got this comfortable, I had to stumble and fall
My neck worth a hundred for sure, I'm not as humble as y'all
That's how they made me, yeah, thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes, n*gga
My heart still on Genesee and Bailey (In the hood)
I'm writin' sh*t about my life (My life), you think it's only a song? n*gga, you crazy
'Cause it's back to playin' corners if I get lazy, let's go, ah
[Chorus: Benny the Butcher]
And all I wanted was a Benz and a brick, uh
Thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes, yeah
All we wanted was a Benz and a brick, uh
Thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes, let's go
I risked my freedom for that Benz and that brick, uh
Thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes, yeah
All we wanted was a Benz and a brick, yeah
Thirty-six ounces and a Mercedes (Let's go)
