I'm That Nigga (2015)
At the strip club
--
I pour codeine in a LeBron Sprite
Pop a Percocet, I feel like Iron Mike
Strip club, I make 30k, sky dive
I get head on a high-rise
My life
Awesome!
I thank God momma didn't have an abortion
So every time I get paid she get a portion
I made a fortune
I'm havin foursomes
Don't have to force em

This whole song is kind of outrageous, from the changing beat, to Wayne's changing flows and rhyme schemes, to the chorus. To me though this presents an opportunity to explore how he thrives in the middle of what sounds like chaos.
The first two lines are pretty simple. With both of them juxtaposing drugs with sports icons, the overall message is relatively clear: drugs make him feel like a superstar.
The next two are where it gets kind of wild (possibly a result of the drugs). I can't seem to find any kind of connective tissue between the things he's listing beyond balling on almost a video game level. He has enough game/swag/juice to make money at a strip club instead of spending it, but beyond that the skydiving and the high rises sound like one big fever dream.
My favorite part is the line "my life awesome" because it serves so many purposes. First, it connects the preceding description of his life with the gratitude he expresses next. Second, while connecting those two ideas, it also carries the rhyme scheme of both of those sections simultaneously, allowing a seamless transition between the two. Finally, along with the change in rhyme scheme there's also a complete change in the rhythm and tempo of the beat, and thus his flow, which again he pulls off like it's child's play for him.
The rest of it is fairly self-explanatory, but I will say that rhyming foursome with force em is some next level Wayne shit.
