[Intro]

I promise it comes with a gift

How awesome is this narcissism?

You save your hard earnings

To pay for these nigga's opinions


[Chorus]

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see?

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see?

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see


[Verse 1]

Said it ain't on me so I need more bottles

Okay, these lames gon' see that a nigga ball harder

See, I got it to a T 'cause my T cost dollars

Still, my chain so big, can't pop my collar

Cold stunna

Rose-gold, four somethin'

Conchords wet as shit ho, these Oceans 11's

Club jumping

And it's like I got a black heart

Ever since I swiped that black card

And I think that shit with 10 bills

Let these niggas know we in the building

Because I spend these 7 bills

Bitches tryna give me all their feelings


[Pre-Chorus: The Wise Guys]

All around me are familiar faces

Worn out places, worn out faces

Bright and early for the daily races

Going nowhere, going nowhere

Went to school and I was very nervous

No one knew me, no one knew me

Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson

Look right through me, look right through me


[Chorus]

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see?

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see?

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see


[Verse 2]

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see?

Ya ain't paying for no pussy but you pay for what she see

M.O.B., M.O.B

Yes, as far as I can see

But these broads jocking me is validating my conceit

Obviously, show your bread

Don't you wonder why she here?

Open bottles, open convos, open wallets, open legs

Open cleavage, open eyes, open ride, open thighs

Oh behave

My old school got more vroom than your new ride

Look at me, look at me

Now he creeping up the street

Couple thousand on that V, got you stuntin' on IG-

Ram, damn, plan, scheme

Just to show you that he got it 'til they raaaa ra raaaaa (gun sounds)

Must of been plotting while they twatching

Living for these bitches

Niggas dying over 'posites, bitches dying for attention

Niggas drop it just to bop 'em

Is it really that important, is it really that serious?

I'm curious, this really shit we living for opinions


[Pre-Chorus: The Wise Guys]

All around me are familiar faces

Worn out places, worn out faces

Bright and early for the daily races

Going nowhere, going nowhere

Went to school and I was very nervous

No one knew me, no one knew me

Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson

Look right through me, look right through me


[Chorus]

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see?

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see?

Now look at me, look at me

How much vanity you see


[Outro: Magazeen]

We're fucking up the club now, club now

D'Usse and the Rose now, Rose now

They say how far we pulling in, pulling in

Watch me make me do me thing, do me thing

We're fucking up the club now, club now

D'Usse and the Rose now, Rose now

They say how far we pulling in, pulling in

Watch me make me do me thing, do me thing

Take it
