Stevie Wonder
Chance The Rapper Ft. Lucki Ecks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the vision was a tunnel with a door
Like a funnel for precision
Just a mission , no decision
Narrowing as it beckons me
More of a slide than a hallway
More of a hive than a hiding place
More of a hike than a walk or a stroll
In the wall in a crawl space
I be zen like a motherfucker
Zonin' like a motherfucker
Bars like a motherfucker
Gone like a motherfucker
Smart like a nigga went to Jones like a motherfucker
Gettin' grown like a motherfucker
Push-ups getting strong like a motherfucker
I'm in my zone motherfucker
I'm be zonin' motherfucker
I'm in the zonin'
You ain't been where I been (No, no, no)
You sure ain't seen what I seen (No he didn't, no he didn't)
Round these nigga, Round these nigga
Round these niggas, Round these nigga
I can't see a thing (In my zone)
I can't see a thing
You ain't been where I been
You ain't seen what I seen
When I'm around these niggas
I swear I can't see a thing (In my zone now)
I can't see a thing (In my zone)
I can't see a thing
In my zone, in my zone, in the zone, in the zone
Shit, I got the world in my hand with some dice little nigga, I'm rolling
I got Google I don't need your advice old nigga, I'm zonin'
I'm Tom Brady '03, '07, little nigga, I'm golden
The bitch we ghost ridin' off of two little niggas she rollin
The fourth day in a row and I know it's wrong been driving all in my pivot
Been passing smooth the whole drive
Just hope the Lord will come pick it
And them HBK's been kickin'
Been fucking around with these heartbreaks
I keep it moving, no slippin'
The banana peels falling your way its like
You feel it (I can't see a thing)
I know you feel it
I know you feel it (I can't see a thing, We zonin')
You feel it (We zonin')
I know you feel it (We zonin')
I know you feel it (We zonin')
We zonin'
Chance The Rapper Ft. Lucki Ecks's song Stevie Wonder is a reflection on the state of mind of two rappers who have been in the game for a while. The lyrics describe a vision that Chance had, of a tunnel with a door, that is like a funnel for precision. The tunnel gets narrower as it beckons him. It is more of a slide than a hallway, more of a hive than a hiding place, more of a hike than a walk or a stroll. It's a stride through a hole in the wall in a crawl space. In this vision, Chance feels zen-like and is zonin' like a motherfucker. Bars are coming to him easily and he feels like he's in his zone. He's getting stronger, both mentally and physically, and is pushing himself to his limits. When he's around his peers, he feels like he can't see a thing, and he's in his own world, in the zone.
The chorus further emphasizes the idea of being in one's own zone, where others can't relate. Lucki Ecks raps, "You ain't been where I been. You ain't seen what I seen. When I'm around these niggas, I swear I can't see a thing." He's talking about how he's so focused on his music and his career that he doesn't have time to socialize or go out. He's zoned out and nothing else matters to him.
The final verse talks about how Chance and Lucki are both in their own zone, and they're not interested in the opinions of others. Chance brags about having the world in his hand and being able to roll the dice. He's got Google and doesn't need advice from anyone else. He's got a golden touch like Tom Brady and is confident in his abilities. The two rappers talk about how they've been through heartbreaks and tough times, but they keep moving forward, without slipping like banana peels on the ground. The final chorus emphasizes the feeling of being in the zone, where nothing else matters.
Line by Line Meaning
I had a vision
I had a mental image
And the vision was a tunnel with a door
The image was that of a passage with an opening
Like a funnel for precision
Functioning as a device for accuracy
Just a mission , no decision
Only a task to be accomplished, no choice needed
Narrowing as it beckons me
Becoming thinner while calling me
More of a slide than a hallway
Less of a corridor and more of a slope
More of a hive than a hiding place
Similar to a beehive, not a spot to hide
More of a hike than a walk or a stroll
Similar to a trek rather than a leisurely walk
It's a stride through a hole
A brisk pace through an opening
In the wall in a crawl space
Within a wall cavity low enough to crawl in
I be zen like a motherfucker
I have a calm and relaxed demeanor
Zonin' like a motherfucker
Fully focused
Bars like a motherfucker
Lyrically gifted
Gone like a motherfucker
Completely gone, lost in thought
Smart like a nigga went to Jones like a motherfucker
Very intelligent as if one attended a prestigious college prep high school
Gettin' grown like a motherfucker
Maturing and becoming more responsible
Push-ups getting strong like a motherfucker
Increasing strength through exercise
I'm in my zone motherfucker
Fully focused and engaged
You ain't been where I been (No, no, no)
You have not experienced what I have
You sure ain't seen what I seen (No he didn't, no he didn't)
You definitely have not witnessed what I have
Round these nigga, Round these nigga
Around these people
I can't see a thing (In my zone)
I am so focused that I am oblivious to my surroundings
You ain't been where I been
You have not been to the same places I have
You ain't seen what I seen
You have not witnessed what I have witnessed
When I'm around these niggas
When I am with these people
I swear I can't see a thing (In my zone now)
I am completely focused and unaware of what's going on
In my zone, in my zone, in the zone, in the zone
Fully focused and engaged
Shit, I got the world in my hand with some dice little nigga, I'm rolling
I hold my destiny in my hands and I'm taking risks
I got Google I don't need your advice old nigga, I'm zonin'
I have access to information and I don't need your wisdom
I'm Tom Brady '03, '07, little nigga, I'm golden
I am at the top of my game and confident in my abilities
The bitch we ghost ridin' off of two little niggas she rollin
The girl we're with is having fun and is being driven by two guys
The fourth day in a row and I know it’s wrong been driving all in my pivot
I'm driving recklessly for four days now, and I know it's not right
Been passing smooth the whole drive
I've been driving smoothly throughout
Just hope the Lord will come pick it
I hope God helps me out of this situation
And them HBK's been kickin'
My shoes are comfortable and I'm walking well
Been fucking around with these heartbreaks
I've been playing with people's feelings
I keep it moving, no slippin'
I keep going forward without faltering
The banana peels falling your way its like
You're being unlucky and things aren't going well for you
You feel it (I can't see a thing)
You are experiencing it, but I'm not fully aware
I know you feel it
I know you're going through something
We zonin'
Fully focused and engaged
