Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I been on my shit and ducking off, I don't need no attention
Bring my stepper up, that nigga blow soon as his name get mention
Fuck the clout, been off the internet cause I'm not into that
They say I'm overhyped but I'm gone shine they just ain't seen it yet
They say, meezy where you been at
They say, boy what you been up to (What you been up too)
Shit, I'm on pape, What you on foo'
Shit, if I was you I'll do the same too
They say, meezy where you been at (Like, where you been at)
They say, boy what you been up to
Trying to knock blocks, shit what you on foo' (Llrrd)
When they come spin, like what you gone do
Finna let you know that shit right now my nigga
For one, I ain't worried bout' none of these niggas
I'm getting that backend
For two, these niggas ain't stepping
These pussy ass niggas just acting
For three, I'm running up money
And fucking these hoes and leaving em' there
So if you know like I know, I'm a dog ass nigga
Type to leave a bitch for the air
If you ain't my bitch the, ima' pimp you hoe
Holding hands and kissing
Miss me with it, like is you stupid hoe (Like, is you dumb)
Put that shit on, I got it on from shit, head to toe
Walk inside that bitch, these hoes on me
They all want to give me throat
Where you been at meezy, they want to know why
And why like literally
I done seen some shit inside my eyes, that shit, the blind can see (That the blind can See)
I can care but I choose not that shit, is just a side of me (Is just a side of me)
Hop outside this bitch, and let it rain trying to shoot infinity (Infinity)
Tell em', come up on this side and take a roll of these dice
The game ain't what it seem, you got to play this right
You fuck up one time, they on yo' ass like white on rice
And in the hood, go grab a strap
You dumb, you think of fight
Wham-wham like four PF, bitch I'm on that shit again (I'm on that shit)
Up now, pockets full, know that don't want to see me
On my shit, now all the fake shit is starting to come in
Bitch talking bout' her last nigga, I was like you said what again?
They say, meezy where you been at
They say, boy what you been up to
Shit, I'm on pape, What you on foo' (Like what you on)
Shit, if I was you I'll do the same too
They say, meezy where you been at (Like where you been at)
They say, boy what you been up to (What you been up to)
Trying to knock blocks, shit what you on foo' (What you been on foo')
When they come spin, like what you gone do
I been on my shit been gone for sixty days, I know they miss me
Finna turn up bad and act a ass, and they gone have to kiss
These hoes would fuck you over, that's the reason I don't care for bitches
Dope boy swag, white tee, white forces, can't forget the Dickies
All that media shit they doing, tell them boys to pop out
Rich and dumb I guess, it ain't a shame I run with some drop-outs (I run with some drop-outs)
Don't tolerate no talk inside the slums, they'll knock ya' mouth out
Don't up with disrespect either, say some wrong
They knock ya' block off (Llrrd)
All the shit these niggas doing, shit, I done did it or had to see it
And plus the shit they flexing with, that shit there be so mister meaner
Like guns, we don't mention that (At all)
Money, we having that
Flrrd, we keeping that (Llrrd)
Bitches, fuck em' and give em' back
Um, they say, meezy where you been at (Like where you been)
Yea, they say, boy what you been up to (What you been up to)
Shit, I'm pape, shit what you on foo'
Shit, if I was you, I'll do the same too
Yea, yea, yea
Wham-wham like 4PF, bitch I'm on that shit again (I'm on that shit)

Un, un, huh, I'm on that shit again
(They say, meezy where you been at)
(They say, boy what you been up to)




(Shit, I'm pape, shit what you on foo'
(If I was you, I'll do the same too)

This is one of those songs that I thoroughly enjoy but will literally never listen to again.

Danilo Batista

With me is the opposite.. it Is on my play list already..

IAMBROCHACHO

@Danilo Batista that's the beauty of art. We all see it differently. Like I enjoy the track. To the point that it would definitely hit my runner up playlist but to me, it's just slightly too generic to hit my main.

But that's just my personal opinion.
