Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rappin and Vibin and I'm comin for the top
Got your girl on my jock cause she likes how i talk uh
Comin back uh uh you're getting smacked uh uh
Off the track uh uh off the bat uh uh
Don't fuck with me? I don't fuck with you
Hop off my dick and find
Someone else to screw with
Off this fucking fireball like i spit
From the fuckin mic
I'm boutta ball on these hoes like I'm bron
Burnin wicks like I'm John
Dodgin Charges like I'm Dom uh
Get your ass outta church
Cause you prayin on my downfall
Bitch I'm a southpaw, quit watchin while i write
While i hop in the booth
And spit flames at the mic,
Burnin rappers left and right uh
Got no time for your petty ass disses
You out here burnin bridges
While I'm buildin up my business uh
Got my shoes fresh laced,
Ask your bitch how my dick taste
We gettin shit faced
Homie i don't need advice,
You got evicted twice
Stop takin tips cause they
Pray that you quit
Got stripes on my suit,
I'll slice your ass in two
You got no use for your body
Cause you never like to move uh
I just hit a strike when i killed the fuckin track
So let me pass the mic to the psycho Mista Max
Mista
Max
No imma hit 'em hard like
Motherfuckin uppercuts
Max and B-Rent on the track
They can't fuck with us
I emerge from the bottom of the map
With nothing but straight flames
And the clothes off my back
On these tracks, drop nothing
But straight bombs like Iraq
A lot of these niggas talkin
But i ain't hearin no facts
I'm not a piano you can't play me homie
When namin champions
You gotta say me homie
And since I'm a champion
I got trophies all in my closet
Hope in my bones
Mindset i gotta accomplish
Now please, excuse my French
But fuck your clique
My style they bitin
Call those motherfuckers ticks
You causin drama, like a barber
You'll get fuckin clipped
I'm tryna get my money tall
Like Chuck Nevitt
They wanna cap the king
When I'm doin this rappin thing
OG told me you the last
Of a dying breed
The top is the place where all of my
Peoples gon reach
I got the flow that makes em
Stand up out of they seats
When i was blowin great weed
You was duckin them seeds
Stay in your place mother fucker
You ain't messin with me
Uh, gunpowder in my pants pocket
Got dirty money
Please don't put your hands on it
I'm stickin to my morals bitch
And i stand on it
Yeah
Superhero flow
Superhero flow
I'm stickin to my morals bitch
And i stand on it
Uh
Yeah
The lyrics to “Introduction” by B.B King and friends have some complex metaphors that can be interpreted in different ways. The song begins with a line that talks about people asking for someone else's opinion all the time. The phrase “bonnet blanc, blanc bonnet” means “six of one, half a dozen of the other” or “potato, potahto” - a reference to how people tend to say nearly the same thing, even when it is supposedly different. The lyrics then talk about how nothing ever changes until seven “gros bonnets d’cancre” (Big Hat Gang) stir things up. The phrase “cancre” in this case could mean “dunce” or “trouble-maker”. The Big Hat Gang is then called upon by the rapper to reveal what they have in their hearts, as they become more important than anyone else at that moment.
It can be interpreted that the “Introduction” is a commentary on the status quo and the need for change. The lyrics imply that the same people always ask the same questions, but it takes the Big Hat Gang to change the narrative. The song also may suggest that people are afraid to speak up until a group of people with the same mindset comes along. In this case, it is the Big Hat Gang that starts the change. The song ends with a call to action for everyone to get down and make some noise together.
