Poison
B.B.D Lyrics

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Starting off with an energetic greeting to draw the listener's attention

Hol’ up hol’ up hol’ up
Asking the listener to pause for a moment and focus on the message being conveyed

I’m just tryna give hope to the hopeless
Expressing the intention to inspire and motivate people who feel disheartened

I had you in mind when I wrote this
Implying that the song was created with the listener in mind, to encourage and uplift them

Don’t focus where the rope is
Advising the listener not to dwell on negative situations that might bring them down

And you wind up approaching death choking
Warning that fixating on problems can lead to a gloomy outlook on life and a feeling of suffocation

Listen up boy you was chosen
Addressing the listener directly and emphasizing that they have a purpose in life

This world so cold man it’s frozen
Acknowledging that the world can be harsh and challenging

But the flame in your heart stoking
Encouraging the listener to keep the fire of their passions burning, despite the coldness of the world

Go and claim everything your voice has spoken
Exhorting the listener to chase their dreams with confidence and determination

I got big dreams for real
Asserting that the singer has significant aspirations

Record deal with Dreamville
Expressing the desire to secure a successful music record deal

Pressure builds, a diamond’s built
Suggesting that challenges in life can result in a precious and valuable outcome, like a diamond

No better feeling, the grind is real
Emphasizing the surge of satisfaction that comes with hard work and relentless effort

Kilgore veteran so magnificent
Referring to oneself as experienced and accomplished

With the rhetoric, ya yah boy so elegant
Implying the ability to communicate effectively and eloquently

Yeah he heaven sent, when he in his element
Feeling like a natural when performing in a preferred area of expertise

Yeah he relevant, but never accredited
Acknowledging one’s relevance but feeling underappreciated

That’s so foul like a flagrant
Comparing the situation to an offensive foul in a basketball game

Gimme' my credit or I take it
Claiming the recognition due and urging others to acknowledge it

Y’all really testing my patience
Expressing frustration with being pushed too far

Please don’t sleep on the greatness
Requesting that others recognize one’s excellence and not underestimate them

Spreading positivity it’s contagious
Promoting a positive attitude that can influence others for the better

Possibilities, yes indeed they are spacious
Encouraging the listener to see opportunities as abundant and expansive

You got dreams go achieve it
Encouraging the listener to follow their aspirations and make them a reality

It’s a Journey, keep believing
Implying that chasing dreams is a process that requires faith and perseverance

Got my toes on the ground, But my head in the sky
Feeling grounded in reality while still imagining and striving for greater things

The squadron around, and we moving with spry
Having a supportive group of people who are upbeat and lively

The nose like a hounds, and I can smell that shit a mile away
Being able to detect insincerity and negative attitudes from afar

I pray for prey so stay at bay
Wishing to avoid negative situations and obstacles

And I don’t wanna get the Mac, and let that laser spray
Avoiding violent confrontations and weapons use

I paved the way for me and mines
Creating opportunities or paths for oneself and one’s loved ones

Coldest shoulder when I’m toting the nine
Being cold and distant when carrying a firearm

The defensive type
Having a guarded, protective demeanor

And you better watch your tone with all that slandering tripe
Warning others to be mindful of their words and actions, and avoid spreading negativity

Cause it’s fuck the hype and fuck the fame
Dismissing the pursuit of fame or popularity as pointless

You cross the tribe, you in the aim
Implying that disrespecting one’s group or family is not tolerated

Pull the trigger with my booger finger
Jokingly referring to using one’s index finger to fire a gun

Bullet slinger pullet stinger linger
Playing with words, using alliteration to describe the effect of a bullet

Dinner ready them chicken tenders is heavy
Making a playful metaphor that combines the concept of a meal with having power and responsibility

Killing steady I’m just doing What I gotta do
Accepting the necessity of taking actions that might be unpopular or unpleasant

To toughen the levee
Strengthening the metaphorical barrier that protects oneself or one’s community

And imma keep on jetting till I die
Continuing to pursue one’s goals and dreams until death

Aye Imma keep on jetting till I Die
Repeating the previous line for emphasis
