The gun or the putter?
You hear me?
You understand what I'm sayin'?
What's really butter?

What's really butter?
Guns who be gettin' that butter all day

Overall Meaning

In the opening verse of A$AP Rocky's song "Gunz N Butter", Rocky acknowledges his enemies' misguided anger and consistent plotting against him. He proclaims he feels like he can manage and overcome it all because he's blessed. He's built up trust and feels that his enemies won't come after him. Rocky also references Hercules, perhaps a metaphor for his own strength and resilience. In the following verses, Rocky reflects on his upbringing and family, mentioning his mother and father's religious beliefs. He discusses his own willingness to adapt and learn from different religions, as well as the current political climate in the United States, where he feels that there is no justice to protect Black people from white supremacists.


The chorus of the song features a list of weapons that Rocky has access to, including guns like the FN, Ruger, Draco, and rifles, shotguns, and more. The second verse is a play on words that emphasizes the idea of having "gunz n butter." Rocky reflects on the idea of making money while also acknowledging that it comes at the cost of violence and aggression. The song ends with Rocky asking listeners to question what "butter" really means: is it the guns or something else?

This video had changed my mindset about 4 months ago. It made me think about my actions, and it made me realize that I don't want to be a part of the system. A month after realization I finally got rid of my nicotine addiction. I also started improving myself: both physically and mentally. Thank you Rocky!

@debr4265

@bootywarrior6958

@joenervlus3239

He's also showing the cruelty on your plates, Take that too into consideration. Cigarettes and alcohol are personal choices.
