Even the Odds
Big Sean & Metro Boomin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bitch, this ain't for sure, this a toss up
Bitch, this ain't Toyota, this European
Bitch she ain't no hoe, she my girlfriend
Bitch, this ain't is no nap, this how I sleep
Bitch, this ain't no hobby, this how I eat
Bitch, this ain't lust so it's love
Bitch, this ain't the connect, this the plug
Bitch, this ain't a show, this a world tour
Bitch, you don't know me, now you know me
Bitch, this ain't the problem, this the solution
Feeling like my chakras aligned
From now on call me Don
Rhyming for days, I couldn't eat and it was not Ramadan
Niggas asking for a cut, they just way out of line
Hoe, this ain't no Ford, this a Maserati (Thugger)
This not a movie, baby, this a real dead body
I'm on a one-way street, 'bout to have a trolley
I fuck her one night then I'mma duck up outta
You do anything for this lil' bitch you might be a Cosby
Speaking of Bill Cosby, I spike my drink with molly
You better not tell nobody, zip it, just zips and addy
Hit from the back, turn to a car word I'm backing out it, yo
Hit it with 10, fuck it, I'mma go mack his body
Hit 'em up like
Did 'em up like
Hit 'em up like
Bitch, this ain't a boss, this a boss up
Bitch, this ain't for sure, this a toss up
Hoe, this ain't Toyota, this European
Bitch, she ain't a hoe, she's my girlfriend
Bitch, this ain't time, this is our time
Bitch, this ain't the plug, this the power line
Bitch this ain't Diesel, this Gucci (it's Gucci)
Bitch, you ain't know me, man you know me (yeah)
Bitch, this ain't Adidas, this Puma
Bitch, that ain't the truth, that's a rumor
Bitch, you ain't my friend, you a tumor
Bitch, that ain't the new one, this newer
Bitch, this ain't fourth-quarter, it's crunch time
Now foul lines, just front lines
Fuck taking shit, boy, I just take what's mine
And I'm still hungry like a nigga was unsigned
Don't nobody want this shit more than I want mine
Fuck a free meal, boy, I'd rather go hunt mine
When you get the ball, boy, you be fumbling
When you talk that shit be mumbling
Man, I got my one shot
Fucked around and and-one'd it
If the dogs ain't there then they one call from it, look
Run you out your house and now your ass apartment hunting
From that Michigan cold, and I'm colder than that
Don't fuck with my crazy ass, boy
Your mama should've told you that
When we in it, one way out
This life just like a cul-de-sac
The hood behind me like a cobra back
You quote the internet, I quote the facts
But snake niggas never tell the truth
You a liar
If you swear to God one more time on your life you might die
Real ones, I know you feel me
Independent women, I know you feel me
If you self-made, then you feel me
Text from my girl said "Come feel me up"
Real dawgs, I know you feel me
My OG's know they feel me, yeah
Bad bitch, she want to feel me
Text from my girl said "Come feel me up"
If Young Metro don't trust you, I'm gon' shoot you
In these lyrics, Big Sean and Metro Boomin elevate their status in various aspects of their lives. They declare that they are no longer just bosses but are now bossing up. They maintain that they are not fighting for anything with a sure outcome, but it is a toss-up, only time can tell. In a metaphor, they describe that what they possess is not a Toyota but a high-end European machine. Similarly, they explain that their girl is not a hoe but their girlfriend.
Furthermore, the lyrics suggest that what Big Sean and Metro Boomin do is not just a hobby but a means for them to sustain themselves. They state that their feelings for their partner is not just lust but love. They assert that they are not looking for connections but they are the plug. They also differentiate between a beef with someone and a world war with people. Moreover, when people think of it as a show, they clarify that it's a world tour. The last two lines of the lyrics are a statement of assurance, like an answer to all the unknowns and doubts. They declare that this is the solution to the problem, inviting all to take notice.
Big Sean then comes in with his verse and announces that he feels like his chakras are aligned, and he's prompting people to call him Don from now on. He talks about his dedication to his craft, not being able to eat even during Ramadan until he rhymed for days. Big Sean then mentions that people approach him for a cut, yet they are out of line. The following verse by Young Thug is explicit, talking about his Maserati, mentioning body graves, and one-way streets. He speaks about spiking his drink with molly and pleads for keeping his secret. In the next few lines, he talks about his sexual pursuits.
The remaining lyrics are by Big Sean and Metro Boomin’s joint effort. They acknowledge that it's not just any boss, but they are bossing up to a higher level, and it's not for sure, it's a toss-up. Similarly, they create an analog of a power line instead of a plug. They mention that what they have is not Diesel but Gucci, Puma instead of Adidas, and the new one instead of the old. They talk about how they don't take anything but what's theirs and don't fumble when they get the ball. They wrap up the lyrics by saying - if you cross them, the outcome is not certain, as they come from a tough background and will not hesitate to defend themselves.

This is not a regular car, it's a Maserati
This not a movie, baby, this a real dead body
This isn't just a film, it's an actual corpse
I'm on a one-way street, 'bout to have a trolley
I'm on a path that only goes one direction, I'm about to reach my destination
I fuck her one night then I'mma duck up outta
I only have sex with her for one night then disappear
You do anything for this lil' bitch you might be a Cosby
If you do anything for this girl, you might be like Bill Cosby who committed sexual misconduct
Speaking of Bill Cosby, I spike my drink with molly
Just like how Bill Cosby drugged his victims, I also put drugs in my drinks
You better not tell nobody, zip it, just zips and addy
You better keep it a secret and not tell anyone
Hit from the back, turn to a car word I'm backing out it, yo
Having sex with her from behind, and then leaving afterward quickly
Hit it with 10, fuck it, I'mma go mack his body

You're not my friend, you're a growth that needs to be removed
Bitch, that ain't the new one, this newer
That's not the new product, this one is even more recent
Bitch, this ain't fourth-quarter, it's crunch time
This isn't just the last quarter, it's the time we need to act decisively
Now foul lines, just front lines
There are no rules, only the lines we need to overcome
Fuck taking shit, boy, I just take what's mine
I don't wait for opportunities, I seize them for myself
And I'm still hungry like a nigga was unsigned
Although I'm already signed and successful, I'm still motivated and ambitious
Don't nobody want this shit more than I want mine
No one wants success more than I do
Fuck a free meal, boy, I'd rather go hunt mine
I don't want a handout, I want to earn my own success
When you get the ball, boy, you be fumbling
When you have an opportunity, you often blow it
When you talk that shit be mumbling
When you're boasting, it's hard to understand what you're saying
Man, I got my one shot
I have one opportunity to make a big break
Fucked around and and-one'd it
Not only did I make it, but I made a bonus score
If the dogs ain't there then they one call from it, look
If my crew isn't around, they will respond to my call for backup
Run you out your house and now your ass apartment hunting
I forced you out of your home and now you're looking for a new apartment
From that Michigan cold, and I'm colder than that
I grew up in the harsh weather of Michigan, and I'm even more ruthless than that
Don't fuck with my crazy ass, boy
Don't mess with me, I'm unpredictable and dangerous
Your mama should've told you that
Your mother should have warned you not to mess with me
When we in it, one way out
Once we're involved, we can't escape
This life just like a cul-de-sac
Life is like a dead end street
The hood behind me like a cobra back
The community supports me and will retaliate if I'm attacked
You quote the internet, I quote the facts
You rely on hearsay and opinions online, whereas I rely on factual evidence
But snake niggas never tell the truth
Dishonest people will always lie and deceive
You a liar
You're a dishonest person
If you swear to God one more time on your life you might die
Stop lying with God as your witness, or you'll face severe consequences
Real ones, I know you feel me
Genuine people will understand and relate to me
Independent women, I know you feel me
Strong and self-sufficient women can connect with me
If you self-made, then you feel me
If you worked hard to achieve your own success, you understand me
Text from my girl said "Come feel me up"
My girlfriend texted me asking for intimacy
Real dawgs, I know you feel me
Loyal and trustworthy people will relate to me
My OG's know they feel me, yeah
My mentors and seniors in the industry understand me
Bad bitch, she want to feel me
Attractive women desire me
If Young Metro don't trust you, I'm gon' shoot you
If a trusted authority doesn't believe you, then I can't trust you either
