You’ve been hanging on like Cling-Free. In the dryer, you’re my sock.

Lil Wayne has so many good ones in his various songs. I like “I’m so high I could eat a star” and “big stacks my pockets on kreatine”

“When they see the boy they hyperventilate, I got em running after me like I’m about to win the race”
“I come after the money like Wednesday comes after Tuesday”

“They cannot see me, they are like Stevie”
“Weezy from the Dirty South yea the dirtiest bitch, but I’m clean like a virgin in detergent and shit”
“So sweet – make her wanna lick the wrapper, so I let her lick the rapper”
“In the game I’m manning up like Eli”
“I am sittin on the clouds I got smoke coming from my seat I can play basketball with the moon I got the whole world at my feet playin touch football on Marijuana Street or in a marijuana field you are so beneath my cleats get high, so high, that I feel like lying down in a cigar roll me up and smoke me cause I feel like dying”
