Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Then it's pop goes the weasel
You already know what time it is 'cause niggas is hungry
You watchin' this shit right now, and you waitin' on your shot
And you know because you would do it
And they act like it's a problem, it ain't a problem, man
Don't dispose of these niggas of anything
TOS, nigga, terminate on sight, that green (don't play with him)
I said that green (yeah)

I be rhymin', I ain't a rapper though
These niggas ain't even fear something, how they still cappers though?
I don't even like to rap, dirty money where it's at
So much money, they think I cook crack (yeah)
Putting thousands in these bags, they say "Huh, where it's at?"
My youngin' buckin', he might serve me in the Scatpack
He don't know she got a boyfriend, she ain't gettin' that
Can't put no trust in a bitch, just like a life hack (can't trust these bitches)

She might not call back, but the racks call back
And my niggas, well you best believe that they spinning that
I got a bag on me (bag on me), I'm spending that (spending that)
Like a carjack, keep some shooters to the store, we winning that, yeah
I came from the bottom
I ain't have good grades, but all my problems, I solve 'em
I'm gettin' money (yeah), and they didn't know
They said I'd amount to zero, I got a lot of those (yeah)

I be rhymin', I ain't a rapper though
These niggas ain't even fear something, how they still cappers though?
I don't even like to rap, dirty money where it's at
So much money, they think I cook crack (yeah)
Putting thousands in these bags, they say "Huh, where it's at?"
My youngin' buckin', he might serve me in the Scatpack

He don't know she got a boyfriend, she ain't gettin' that
Can't put no trust in a bitch, just like a life hack (can't trust these bitches)

Overall Meaning

In the opening verse of 645AR's song Dirty Money, he speaks about the greed and hunger that can drive people to do desperate things. He mentions the phrase "pop goes the weasel," which is typically associated with the sound of a jack-in-the-box toy. However, the phrase also has a darker meaning, as it was once used as slang for murder or assassination. He warns listeners that they are not immune to the temptation of quick wealth and that they may do things they regret in pursuit of it. He advises caution with those who try to act as obstacles to achieving that wealth.

The rest of the lyrics in the song speak to 645AR's personal experience with getting rich through illegal means. He feels no attachment to rap as a craft, only valuing the money he makes from it. He brags about the vast amount of cash he has and the ways he spends it. He is also wary of those around him, particularly women who he believes are only interested in his money. Despite this, he is confident in his own abilities and success, feeling pride in the fact that he has overcome the odds to make it to where he is.

The song Dirty Money is a reflection of the modern concept of "get rich or die trying". It speaks to the desperation of people living in poverty who feel that they have no other means of escaping their situation than by making fast money. The lyrics show the dangers of this mentality, such as violence, betrayal, and mistrust, while also highlighting the powerful lure of financial success.
