Many Men
21 Savage & Metro Boomin Lyrics

I kept it silent the whole time (ayy)
I remained quiet all along

I ain't never, ever play both sides (ayy)
I never betrayed anyone

East side nigga 'bout gunfire (ayy)
A person from the east side dealing with gun violence

Pull up in a van and the door slide (ayy)
Arrives in a van with a sliding door

We ain't never throwin' no white flag (straight up)
We don't surrender

Gotta get smoked when the bros die (straight up)
We have to seek revenge when loved ones die

They gon' spin 'til the car hot (straight up)
They will drive around and cause trouble until they get caught

Don't call my phone 'til some more die
Don't contact me until more people have died

New Maybach, I don't need no key
Has a new car which doesn't require a key to start

I was in the dirt, you ain't believed in me
I was in a bad situation and no one believed in me

My attention span too short
I have a short attention span

To wait for pussy, you teasin' me
I'm not interested in playing around

Bad lil' vibe, she pleasin' me
A woman is making me happy

Spend a whole M, yeah, easily
Spending one million dollars is easy for me

I get the cash and put it up fast
I quickly save the money I earn

I think I got JB in me
Refers to having the same charisma and success as Justin Bieber

Edge of the bed, she sit up (ayy)
A woman sits up from the bed

Suckin' on the it 'til she got hiccups (yeah)
A woman is pleasing him orally, to the point of getting hiccups

Back in the day I did stickups (ayy)
He used to rob people in the past

Favorite hotbox was a pick up (yeah)
He enjoyed smoking in enclosed spaces like the back of pickup trucks

Say you want smoke, don't pick us (21)
If you want to start trouble, don't mess with us

Face shot, now you can't get up (21)
We will shoot someone in the face and they won't get up again

Count a lot gang, nigga, shut up (21)
My gang is powerful, so stop talking about it

We known for shootin' shit the fuck up (21)
We are notorious for causing chaos and violence

I got vibes eatin' Addys off ass and titties (loose)
Taking Adderall and indulging in sexual acts

When it's smoke, we pull our stickies and they call the PD (pussy)
When there is a conflict, we escalate to violence and attract the police

Many men wanna kill me, dawg, I feel like 50 (pussy)
Many people want me dead like 50 Cent dodging death in his past

I got small fries want my spot, tryna defeat me (pussy)
There are people who are competing with me for my spot

I got real model bitches tryna R&B me (pussy)
Models and female artists are trying to seduce him

All that cap inside your raps, I ain't even play your CD (21)
I don't even listen to your music because you're fake in your lyrics

We don't go back and forth on the internet, we put niggas on TV (big facts)
We deal with problems directly and resort to violence, instead of arguing on the internet

I got your bitch and her BB (big facts)
He's telling another guy that his girlfriend is with him

Hit her in the shower, Mimi (big facts)
He had sexual relations with her while in the shower

Next day she tryna see me (straight up)
She's keen to see him again

Told her I'm blind, Stevie (Stevie)
He's avoiding seeing her again

Nice girls can't even keep me (never)
He can't be contained by a nice, faithful woman

Need a bad girl like RiRi (yeah, yeah)
He wants a bad girl like Rihanna

We don't pump fake, we kill beef (21)
They don't lie or pretend, they solve problems and conflicts with violence

21 Savage, not Jeezy (pussy)
He's not Jeezy, he's his own individual artist

She in the heels on the coke (she is)
A woman is wearing high heels while doing cocaine

Fish scales smellin' like polish (you dig?)
The fish scales they sell are mixed with a sweet-smelling substance

They brought it right off the boat (you dig?)
The fish scales are imported illegally

Front door, back door king
He's the king of robbing both the front and back entrance of a place

I done probably robbed your bro (I did)
I probably robbed one of your family members or friends

Come up with a plan, better huddle (21)
They make plans and huddle up before going into action

Left wrist lookin' like a puddle (21)
He has a lot of expensive jewelry

When I'm in the street, it's trouble (21)
He attracts trouble wherever he goes

That's why I stay in my bubble (I do)
He stays in his own safe space to avoid danger

Brand new Rari so fast, when I stomp the pedal to the floor, it stutter (skrrt)
His brand new Ferrari is so fast it stutters when he speeds up

I ain't use a rubber and I make M's, that's why I'm chasin' this butter (on God)
He didn't use protection during sex, but he's making a lot of money and that's why he's trying to get wealthy

Many men wish death upon-
Many people want me dead

Blood in my eye, dawg, and I can't see
He's blinded by his anger and can't think rationally

I'm tryin' to be what I'm destined to be
He's striving to achieve his goals

And niggas tryin' to take my life away
People are trying to kill him

"The evil man envies the good in others
This quote is meant to represent the overall theme of the song - that many people are jealous of others' success and this envy can lead to chaos and danger
