Crazy
Bow Wow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Chorus]
I'm crazy
How I dress
And keep it fresh
So many steps
Ahead of y'all
'cause I'm before my time
[Repeat: x2]
I'm crazy
How I do it
When I do it
I gets to it
That why the girls
The girls they love me

Y'all know what it is when I step in the house
So stoop sitting back tryin' ta figure me out
I know it don't sound right
That I'm only fourteen in your life
30 years old
'cause you only when gold so you mad at me
'cause my first joint went triple P
And no matter what I do when I step in the 2
The girls they love me
The only reason I'm winning is because I'm a gimmick
I know that's what you're sayin'
But I came to your show
And there was nobody in it
And you still think you're the man
What was that no promo
No radio
I know you got something to say
It's not your fault
'cause you're hot
But don't nobody else seem to feel that way
See it's like this
When you rap people just clap
When I rap they shed tears
You know this So So C.O.
Flow Crazy like Britney Spears
It is
Ask yo mama
Ask yo brotha'
Ask somebody's dad
I'm collar poppin' gangsta I'm supa' bad
Man
I'm crazy

[Chorus]

My parents it
Head cot
Throwback
Air force
No socks
Braided up
T-shirt
Jeans
Jordan's
And a bubble watch
Block man
Every color band
I'm sayin' I switch every time the wind blow
When I ain't putting it down
Playin' around
You could catch me in that Tet mo
It's mandatory that I rock two chains
Big
Only way I do things
Kid
With so much game
Bad
Stay out of my range
'cause I could me a mountain move
If I wanted to
When I really want to move you
Only rock it if it's new
Only top it if it's true
So stop your nonsense
Held me back
Color do rag
Jumpos with I whole lot of sag
Dad in the Range
Mom in the Jag
And I keep on all the tags
Ask yo moma
Ask yo brotha
Ask somebody's dad
I'm collar poppin' gangsta




I'm supa' bad
You know I'm crazy

Overall Meaning

In Bow Wow's song Crazy, the rapper takes pride in his unconventional style both in fashion and music. He acknowledges that people may be confused or intimidated by his behavior, but he enjoys being ahead of the curve. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I'm crazy" as a testament to how unique he views himself. He references his age (only 14 at the time the song was released) and the fact that some people think he's only famous because he's a "gimmick." However, he argues that his success is due to his talent and the fact that he appeals to a younger generation.


Bow Wow also uses the song to boast about his material possessions, such as his "throwback" clothes, Air Force shoes, and bubble watch. He seems to enjoy switching up his look frequently and wears whatever he likes. He also references his "two chains" and how he likes to stay "fresh" and "true" with his outfits.


The overall message of the song seems to be that Bow Wow is comfortable with who he is and doesn't care what others think of him. He's aware that some people may not understand him or his choices, but he embraces his individuality and encourages others to do the same.
