Best of Me
Bre-Z Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm focused man
Tell Stout to holla at me man
Uh, young Hova, you heard
Trackmasters you heard

Yo, yes y'all, Jigga man be ballin'
Leave chicks pigeon-toed, some of them be crawlin'
Get the best of you whenever I put my all in
Have mamis callin, for the Lord, darlin'
Jigga in call and ass drop
Coupes with half the top, dispose half my knot
Niggas mad when I brag about the cash I got
But I'm used to not havin' a lot
I'm from the gutter and uh
I ain't the type to ever chase your boss
I'm the type to interior decorate the watch
I'm the type to sling heavy weight on the block
In every state and block, word, Jigga's the hurt holla

Your lips are telling me yes, while you're kissin' on my neck
Makin' me feel so, should I stay, should I go, I don't know
Your hot boy style drives me wild
But in the back of mind I know

Even though I wanna see
How you put that thang on me
I can't let you get
The best of me

Even though I wanna see
How you put that thang on me
I can't let you get
The best of me

The best of me
The best of me

Conversation ain't what, big thighs got you stuck
Feelings startin' to show, should I stay, should I go, I don't know
You're drivin' me crazy, I wanna be your lady
But I got a man at home

Even though I wanna see
How you put that thang on me
I can't let you get
The best of me

Even though I wanna see
How you put that thang on me
I can't let you get
The best of me

The best of me
The best of me, oh oh

5-4-3-2-1
Carolina blue kicks, hottest nigga on the block
Used to Willie bicycle since I was 6, uh
High school crossover, wave to wave picks
Music ain't the same shit, gave away hits
So ma get it together or forget it forever
When I go at you hard I can get it through leather
You act like Jigga can't get at whoever
Talkin' you got a man, okay ma and
That's high school, makin' me chase you 'round for months
Have an affair, act like an adult for once
Plus my hand is up your skirt, goddamn you flirt
What's a little me on top gon' hurt, maybe a little but
Pain is pleasure and pressure bust pipes
And you look like the "I-Like-It-Rough" type
We can crush tonight, tell me what you like
I got a yellow bottle on a bucket of ice, get right (Young Hova)

Even though I wanna see
How you put that thang on me
I can't let you get
The best of me

Even though I wanna see
How you put that thang on me
I can't let you get
The best of me

Make it hot, make it hot, make it hot

Overall Meaning

In Bre-Z's "Best of Me," the singer is trying to navigate their feelings towards a potential lover. At the beginning of the song, they seem confident and assertive, bragging about their wealth and success. However, as the song progresses, they become more vulnerable and unsure, expressing a desire for physical intimacy but also struggling with not wanting to cheat on their partner. The repeated phrase "Even though I wanna see how you put that thang on me, I can't let you get the best of me" highlights this internal conflict. Ultimately, the singer seems to be torn between their desire for the thrill of a new relationship and their commitment to their current partner.


One interesting aspect of this song is the use of the term "Jigga" to refer to Jay-Z. The lines "Yo, yes y'all, Jigga man be ballin'" and "Talkin' you got a man, okay ma and, that's high school" are examples of this use. Jay-Z has long been known by this nickname, which is a shortened version of his earlier stage name, Jazzy. Additionally, the song was produced by Trackmasters, a hip-hop production team known for their work with artists like Nas, 50 Cent, and Mariah Carey. Mister Tone, who is mentioned at the end of the song, is a rapper and producer from Philadelphia who has worked with Bre-Z on several projects.

She is soo original and different and that's what makes me love her more. She gives me life, big love @Bre-Z

@alysad19

Jamal Vines you're worried abt stolen beat? Shdnt u be worried abt stolen lyrics instead? Hip hop has always got similar beats. Chill bro, she's soo different from all the female hip hop artistes in the game now. She doesn't seem to be copying anyone. She's always herself. That's wat I meant.
