In Bow Wow's song "You Already Know," the young rapper showcases his confidence and bravado about his success in the music industry. The lyrics are a string of boasts and self-promotions, emphasizing Bow Wow's wealth, talent, and popularity among women. He begins by asserting that he's a young player with both money and a good flow, and that he comes from a place where women "blow." He boasts that he has hit after hit and runs with some impressive people. He details his flashy lifestyle with a "big rock shot gun girl" and a "drop," personalizing himself as a kind of bad boy who still knows how to make everyone get up and dance. His lyrics continue with a casual misogyny, talking about liking girls with "something in the trunk" and positioning himself as a "teacher of the funk."
Throughout the song, Bow Wow is clear that he's about the money and fame, and isn't shy about it. He knows the game and the rules and he's all about being the best, having the best, and showing off. The chorus is a repetition of this: that he's about the money, his flow, and the honeys. This repetition drives home Bow Wow's message that he knows himself and he's not afraid to show off what he's got.
