[Hook]
Tote that tool
Make that double
Better be cool, you don't want no trouble
Keep it leanin' to the left
My gat stay cocked
I'm always super clean when you see me on the block
Keep my money in a knot with a rubberband on it
Blow the marijuana, know I got it if you want it
See me standin' on the corner, slangin' that crack
You know how it is to be the man in trap

Chorus
I'm the dopeman nigga, the dopeman nigga
The dope, the dope-dope the dopeman nigga
I'm the dopeman nigga, the dopeman nigga
The dope, the dope-dope the dopeman nigga
I'm the dopeman nigga, the dopeman nigga
The dope, the dope-dope the dopeman nigga
I'm the dopeman nigga, the dopeman nigga
(From a key to a g, it's all about money)

[Verse 1]
Look, bet all you see is tats, money, grills, and chains
But if you scratch the surface you can feel the pain
Names change but the situation still the same
The bills need payin' nigga, simple and plain
Take a young'n who's aspirin' to get him some change
Won't nobody hire him so he get in the game
Went and bought a 50 slab, divide it up into ten
Sold 'em all, double down, did it again
By then you got enough to buy a quarter ounce
You sellin' dimes to forty fiends buy it and bounce
Now throw some money to your momma, keep some food in the house
Cop the outfit and the jordans on the day they came out
Ye betta get ya self a pistol, know them jackers is out
Flip another seven grams, oh you hustlin' now
Time to get yourself a half, make sure it's some glass
A hundred bags sell it fast stack a g now you officially
The dopeman, nigga

Chorus

(I betcha think you pretty good at it now, huh?)

[Verse 2]
Now once you flipped a couple o's know the game get gravy
Take twelve fifty go git ya two and a baby
That's sixty three grams if you whip that right
You should get back five or six that night
Stack that money and repeat that twice
Buy you somethin' to ride in, ye ain't gotta be tight
Next time you buy somethin' take twenty-five hundred
Get four and a half it come back in nine don't it?
Now stay low key when the money keep comin'
Keep some niggas on ya team to show these suckas they don't want it
By then your connect will clearly see you on ya grind
Shit, you come to get a nine and he front you what you buyin'
As long as you bring back your money on time
And if you snort blow, do it on your own time
At this rate you'll be at a brick in no time
They say the want some weight, tell them niggas stand in line
You the dopeman, nigga

Chorus

(From a key to a g, it's all about money)
(Stay with me now shawty, here comes the fun part)

[Verse 3]
Now the robbers plottin' on ya and your name stay buzzin'
You caught a sale case down in macon with your cousin
Your connect ain't worried, you and him cool
He know you'll never tell what you and him do
A mob of a hundred just a few of them true
You heard a worker snictchin' on you and it's true
Everybody know you sell that shit
The feds come and get ya, shit we heard you:
