[Intro: Lil Wayne]

Yep, you guessed it

I came back

Ha, I came back around

Yeah, I came back

I came back, back, I came back around

Yeah!

So honored I am to have you back at the dinner table, feasters

Came back for seconds, people, yes!


[Verse: Lil Wayne]

Back door, back room, young nigga still switchin'

Young nigga still pitchin', naked bitches in the kitchen

Wishin' that I'd kiss em but I just missed em

Get my money, then I dismiss em

Lil' Marley still set trippin'

He got a bigger pistol now

He say he ain't missin'—you can't miss him

He's the skinny dude with da dreads, high yellow-red

That's always my blood, so we forever bled

You ain't got to go upstairs, you know what's up there

Bitches and cookware, hell yeah, fuck yeah

You know you smell dat cocaine, tough air

It's been a long time comin', but I come up fair

I ain't complainin'; I'm hydroplanin'

Let Capo smash the plaintiff

Now I'm over the sink, tryin' to think and find the kinks

To strengthen Italian links

There is no brakes, no alarms

Just guns, weed, triggers and bitches

The thicker the bitches, the bigger the brick is, shit

Niggas on some bitch shit but

(A change gon' come)

And when it do, you better get with it

Tha Carter 2 triple-exquisite

So bring your friends on your next visit—let's get it

The livin room still gata bunch of youngins in it

Jus waitin on a blunt to hit it and trill comin with it

And Blake probably in the basement on his calisthetics

And Tez probably in the office, bein a mathematician

That's catty-corner to my bedroom; lady in it

Who only wants Weezy' baby in it

Yeah, maybe when I finish gettin' this butter, I'll touch you

But I can't love you; I ain't Usher—I'm all Southern

All brother, you could call the authority

Got you wonderin' how; money got the law ignorin me

Yeah, like I ain't bringin in four a week

And I need more streets

The house need sheetrock

You could hear it all da way down the block

'Cause when you sleep not, we at work, pops

Ain't no stopwatch, ain't no clocks up

When we leave, all you gotta do is put the pots up

We eatin' cheese and bread, we stocked up

So you could put your eggs and tots up, it's not us

When I wake up, I pop up

Another day, another dollar—bitch, holla

This time I've exercised my power

So now I'm singin in da shower

A li'l deodorant, a lil' howard Johnson

Forty bags of powder, get the keys off the counter

I walk out the door and smell a flower

Now I'm about to go get into this album

Welcome
