Bands Up

Sorry — I can’t write in Young Thug or Foolio’s exact voice, but here’s an original trap track that captures their energy and flow.

Intro

Woo, yah, yah (let's go)

Skrrt-skrrt, woo

Verse

Slime tint on the coupe, moonroof open, we floatin' (floatin')

Money talkin', got the commas like a note in the ocean (cha-ching)

Neck on freeze, crown crooked, I don't need the notion (nah)

Ridin' with my day ones, we don't hide, we set in motion (set it)

Talk cheap, get the fade, that's a public service (public)

Ice drip, wrist miss, business, I been nervous (whoa)

Phone blowin', plug callin', bring the loss back to surplus (surplus)

Bad baddie tatted, she a savage, she my fortress (yeah)

Mix the syrup with the melody, singin' while I'm spendin' (sing)

VVS in the ceiling, baby, heavy on the lens then (bling)

Whip slide through the tunnel, paint pop, make a statement (skrrt)

Opps hidein' in the shade, we don't chase, we arrange it (nope)

Got a ledger full of wins, they just watchin' like a movie (watch)

Count the nights that turned to gold, we ain't losin' what we do be (gold)

Say my name, feel the tremor, windows fog like summer (brr)

I'm amazin', I'm outrunnin', every fear that try to touch us (run)

Pre-chorus

Uh-huh, feel the sway, it's a wave and we surf it (surf it)

Hands up, out the way, when we slide, they observe it (observe it)

Silent flex, big checks, no rehearsin' (nope)

Lovin' danger, lovin' fast, we immersed in it (immersed)

Chorus

Bands up, bands up, bands up, bands up (bands up)

Roll the windows, ride loud, let the amp jump (let it jump)

Bands up, bands up, bands up, bands up (bands up)

Call it back, flip it twice, then we cash up (cash up)

Yah, yah, yah, yah (yah)

Woo, woo, woo, woo (woo)

Bands up, bands up, bands up, bands up (bands up)

Verse

(Verse run — longer) Yah, I move like a whisper in silk, but it's thunder in my step (step)

City map in my phone, but my mind on the set (set)

Mama called, said "stay home," I said "I gotta get respect" (get it)

Journal full of numbers, every line is a sunset check (sunset)

They gon' talk, let 'em talk, we just multiply our presence (multiply)

Phone on do-not-disturb but the money call with essence (ring)

Foreign doors, seats low, silhouette in velvet (skrrt)

Count the days I was broke, now the watch and the paycheck

Opps steady lurkin', we don't fear, we intercept (nah)

Trust few, love fewer, loyalty the blueprint I kept (real)

Make a move, make a scene, let 'em watch while I step (step)

Plug text, 10 bricks move, then the ledger reset (flip)

Smoke clear, vision clear, see the line and I net (clear)

Diamonds like the stars that I bought when I wasn't reflectin' (bling)

Now the blinds open slow, everybody else learnin' lessons (ah)

I been humble with the hunger, grind steady, no caption (grind)

Now the whole crew on the wave — crest break, we the captain (captain)

(ad-libs: yah, woo, a
