Big Zuu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Those are my guys the whole day
No ion go for no breaks
Ion care what so and so say
They ain't gotta stake in what you make they will erase this fate
But it never had (date?)
Niggas see itβ²s vain
Man came from the gutter
So how can I miss man take what I gain
No I ainβ²t tryna floss with a chain
Half of these man just lost in their brain
They just care about the costs in the game
We ainβ²t the same they can never cross through my lane
There's no beast inside no monster they tame
See theyβ²re just tryna prosper off fame
Man I say real shit they just tryna sponsor the pain
Mans part of another brigade
Ain't nothing the government made
I make ways with my brothers in faith
From the ends I donβ²t wanna hear another disgrace
How man got laced or bunned in the face
Man lookin like rats just running the place
Fam we gotta make change or it's in our side my sage
But itβ²s hard to undo mind-state corruption
'Cause they know man live by code
They give us heat that beats combustion
They want man to die on road
And I say that shit with abruption
And I know man are gonna ask me who are they?
They the ones who allow shit to function
So my songs ain't filled with air
Cause thereβ²s power in what you hear
Thatβ²s not what they wanna tell them
That's not what they wanna sell them
Theyβ²d rather lock you in a cell then
Can't get back in the well then
Spend your whole life tryna help these the kinda things of bell-ends
Canβ²t you see they're tryna turn it to a hell-ends
But I know thereβ²s a heaven on top of me
I look past like nothing is stopping me
Me I'm tryna do shit properly
I don't care bout novelty came from poverty
So me Iβ²m tryna lead my yute streets property
You wanted to rely on lottery
But never use the power inside
So hear what I devise
Focus on your mind issa drive
See I ainβ²t tryna rely on no one nah I make my own way
Those are my guys the whole day
No ion go for no breaks
Ion care what so and so say
See I ain't tryna rely on no one nah I make my own way
Those are my guys the whole day
No ion go for no breaks
Ion care what so and so say
They ainβ²t gotta stake in what you make they will erase this fate
But it never had (date?)
Niggas see it's vain
Donβ²t think they'll ever like you for a day
Man came from the gutter
So how can I miss man take what I gain
In "No Breaks" by Big Zuu, the lyrics reflect the artist's determination to rely on himself rather than others and his refusal to take breaks from his endeavors. He emphasizes the importance of his close friends and the lack of concern for what others say about him. The verse suggests that some people may not have a vested interest in his success and may even try to undermine him, but he continues to rise above their negativity.
The second verse highlights how Big Zuu distinguishes himself from others who are consumed by material possessions and the shallow aspects of the music industry. He emphasizes that he and these individuals are not the same and that no one can cross into his lane. There is no inherent beast or monster within him that can be tamed by external forces. Instead, he maintains his authenticity, speaking real and genuine words while his counterparts merely seek to capitalize on pain and sponsor it for their own gain.
The third verse delves into the harsh realities of life in the neighborhood. Big Zuu addresses the disgraceful events that occur within his community, such as people being attacked and the prevalence of crime. He calls for change and acknowledges the difficulty in undoing corruption and negative mindsets. He blames those who allow this dysfunction to persist and criticizes their motives and hidden agendas.
The final verse focuses on the power of music and the importance of the messages it carries. Big Zuu acknowledges that his songs have meaning and substance, as there is power in what people hear. He believes that others, particularly those in power, do not want this message to be spread, preferring to keep individuals locked away metaphorically or even literally. He urges listeners to recognize the manipulative tactics used by those in control and encourages them to tap into their own potential and mental strength, emphasizing the value of self-belief and determination.
Overall, "No Breaks" by Big Zuu combines personal resilience, a critique of societal issues, and a call for individual empowerment. It serves as a reminder to rely on oneself, stay true to one's values, and overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of success.

Fam we gotta make change or it's in our side my sage
We have to bring about change or we will suffer the consequences
But it's hard to undo mind-state corruption
However, it's difficult to reverse the corrupted mentality
'Cause they know man live by code
Because they are aware that we live by a certain set of principles
They give us heat that beats combustion
They provide us with pressure that can lead to explosive situations
They want man to die on road
They want us to face fatal outcomes in the streets
And I say that shit with abruption
And I say that harsh truth abruptly
And I know man are gonna ask me who are they?
And I know people will ask me who these individuals are
They the ones who allow shit to function
They are the ones who enable the dysfunction
So my songs ain't filled with air
So, my songs are not empty or meaningless
Cause there's power in what you hear
Because there is influence in what you listen to
That's not what they wanna tell them
That's not what they want to inform or teach them
That's not what they wanna sell them
That's not what they want to market or promote to them
They'd rather lock you in a cell then
They would prefer to imprison you
Can't get back in the well then
You won't be able to return to a good situation
Spend your whole life tryna help these the kinda things of bell-ends
Spending your entire life trying to assist those foolish individuals
Can't you see they're tryna turn it to a hell-ends
Can't you see they are trying to turn it into a hellish situation
But I know there's a heaven on top of me
But I know there is a better future for me
I look past like nothing is stopping me
I look beyond obstacles because nothing can hinder me
Me I'm tryna do shit properly
I am trying to do things correctly
I don't care bout novelty came from poverty
I don't care about superficial trends, I came from a disadvantaged background
So me I'm tryna lead my yute streets property
So I'm trying to guide the younger generation in our neighborhoods wisely
You wanted to rely on lottery
You wanted to depend on luck or chance
But never use the power inside
But you never utilize the power within yourself
So hear what I devise
So listen to my plans or ideas
Focus on your mind issa drive
Direct your attention to your mindset, it's the motivating force
