Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ace Hood, it's do or die, gotta go for it, overtime
Yeah, 'cause it's now or never
I'ma put it on the line, I gotta win so I'm gonna bribe
Put it overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime
'Cause I got money on my mind, give me every penny, every dime
Put it overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime
'Cause it's now or never, put it over time
Well, I'm sittin' on the goal line, starin' at the game clock
Facing a hundred years, me and Jordan got the same shot
Carolina blue, California green
Jump for the white, getcho frilly sheets

Ace Hood, they go crazy when I'm in your city
Ace Hood, that's what they sayin' now in every city
I put my team first, it's never rehearsed
We the best franchise 'cause we squeeze first

I signed a life long deal to the G-co
Drafted outa high school then I hit my free throws
You see them free shows, we call them free throws
Now it cost 'em 20 stacks to witness me flow

It's do or die, yeah, gotta go for it, overtime
Yeah, 'cause it's now or never
I'ma put it on the line, I gotta win so I'm gonna bribe
Put it overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime
'Cause I got money on my mind, give me every penny, every dime
Put it overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime
'Cause it's now or never, put it over time

Yeah, on the role with riches and diamond rings
Real niggas do real things
I say hangin' with the bitches is the song I sing
Real niggas do real things

I'm listenin' to block but it's a human being
If you're tryna win the trophy then you gotta do it big
Louis on every bag, bitches I keep it fly
We don't need a see the tag, we just see it and then we cop

Balling out of control, put it out on the line
I'm in the city with Khaled before I hit a triple dime
Now hold down onto your seats, I'm about to double mine
Ace Hood, Konvict and we put in overtime

It's do or die, yeah, gotta go for it, overtime
I'ma put it on the line, I gotta win so I'm gonna bribe
Put it overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime
'Cause I got money on my mind, give me every penny, every dime
Put it overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime

And I can't slow down for nothin', see I gotta get overtime
'Cause I'ma stay on my grind, 'cause money stays on my mind
I feel like 24 hours just ain't enough for me
If you feel me put your hands up for me

This is over grind, I'm goin' for mine, I'm over mine
Because I'm putting overtime

I'ma put it on the line, I gotta win so I'm gonna bribe
Put it overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime
'Cause I got money on my mind, give me every penny, every dime




Put it overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime, overtime
Ace Hood, Akon, we the best one time
