​rockstar (Original Version) Lyrics

[Chorus: Post Malone]
I've been fuckin' hoes and poppin' pillies
Man, I feel just like a rockstar (Star, ayy, ayy)
All my brothers got that gas
And they always be smokin' like a Rasta ('Sta)
Fuckin' with me, call up on a Uzi
And show up, man, name them the shottas ('Tas)
When my homies pull up on your block they make that thing go
Grrra-ta-ta-ta (Ta, pow, pow, pow)


[Verse 2: T-Pain]
Oh shit, hey (Pizzle)
I just did like twenty shots and now I'm standin' on top of a cop car (Hey, hey, ayy)
She been givin' me head for twenty minutes, man, this bitch gotta have lockjaw (Yeah, yeah, hey, ayy, woo, woo)
Ain't no retirin', bitch I'm firin' out the car, let the Glock off (Hey, hoo)
And it's a job, take the car to the karate shop and chop that bitch like water (Hey, ayy, hey, ayy)
Man, my shit been going back-to-back, grrra-ta-ta-ta, just like a choppa (Ayy, oh, hey, ayy)
Police pull up behind me, ain't no time to go and hide it, throw the rock far (Yeah, hey, yeah)
Valuable (Yeah, oh, oh, oh yeah), for twenty minutes, oh man, my shit is 'bout as swole as a gold bond (Hey, oh, hey, hey, ayy)
I got plenty more, prolly fifty more, but this is what we did so far-ar-ar

[Chorus: Post Malone, T-Pain & Joey Bada$$]
I've been fuckin' hoes and poppin' pillies
(Ah-ahah-ahah)
Man, I feel just like a rockstar (Star, ayy, ayy, woo!)
All my brothers got that gas
And they always be smokin' like a Rasta ('Sta, yeah, hey)
Fuckin' with me, call up on a Uzi
And show up, man, name them the shottas ('Tas, badman)
When my homies pull up on your block they make that thing go
Grrra-ta-ta-ta (Yeah, ta, pow, pow, pow)

[Verse 3: Joey Bada$$]
This that Amethyst Rockstar-life, might not make it
Drop gems 'til I shine bright, just be patient
Two girls in my hotel bathroom naked
That's the type of thrill that I like, don't waste it
My cup filled with no chaser, I'm wasted
Mixin' weed with the Henny, got me cross-faded
Like, "Sorry, no interviews, y'all caught in the Matrix"
Checkin' for statements, life is what you make it
I'm never on vacation 'cause there's no days off
All the hard work, dedication, know it all pays off
I been gettin' no sleep, I been workin' graveyard shifts
I'm a Braveheart, shit, they call me the Sergeant
The general, my squadron, the Pro Era army
Droppin' bombs, this is just the calm before the storm, see
They can never harm me, my brother catch a homi
T-Pain, Post Malone, Joey Bad, this is godly
Huh, hahaha

[Chorus: Post Malone]
I've been fuckin' hoes and poppin' pillies
Man, I feel just like a rockstar (Star, ayy, ayy)
All my brothers got that gas
And they always be smokin' like a Rasta ('Sta)
Fuckin' with me, call up on a Uzi
And show up, man, name them the shottas ('Tas)
When my homies pull up on your block they make that thing go
Grrra-ta-ta-ta (Ta, pow, pow, pow)

Genius Annotation

Featuring T-Pain and Joey Bada$$, this version of Post Malone’s hit song, “rockstar,” was leaked on December 27, 2017, by Music Mafia. The track features verses from Joey and T-Pain in place of 21, as well as a slightly different intro and instrumental piano.

Though Music Mafia released this under the guise of it being a remix, this is actually the original version of the song according to T-Pain. Joey also tweeted that he co-wrote “rockstar” with Post, and Post has said before that Joey wrote a verse when the track was being created.

I guarantee that rockstar would not have gone number one with me on it. Shit was a smart move to put @21savage on it. They know that relevancy drives a hit regardless if you like the artist or not. Hate them as much as you want but where’s YOUR number 1 record
