Chance the Rapper Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stupid ass student
True I got truants in Spanish
Beats by English rap chanish
Fluent, can′t fly got flew in, I'm foolin′
Adidas influence, Nike, I do's it
Coolin' with Mikey, lowkey I rock
Mags on my bike, Tay like he chuck
Hockey I puck
Rockie I fresh
Saki, my cup like Rocky "Wassup"
Ooh he got two weeks ten with the foolie
Doobie sawbuck
School be too huff
Caleb my nigga, Fresco my nigga
Gon′ head send it up
Save Mula too tough, wah!
This ain′t no game, ain't shit here funny
You got me fucked up fucking with my money
Say, this ain′t no game, ain't shit here funny
You got me fucked up fucking with my money
This ain′t no game, ain't shit here funny
You got me fucked up fucking with my money
Say, this ain′t no game, ain't shit here funny
You got me fucked up fucking with my money
Wavy so wavy
Trendin' I′m trendy
Bending these pennies mommy done gave me
Business so savvy
Savey no spendy
Drifty so empty
City so windy
Master champ Chancelor, TrapMan the Chance or
Vance the bag handler, Bagger Vance
Pants is baggy, Vans rancid
Band of bad bandits
Abandoned bandanas banned from band practice
Sentence so gavel
Wordplay so scrabble
Chance to split atoms slit Adams apples
Adamant chano rat a tat vandals
Had to have at em′ as an example (uh, yah, wah!)
This ain't no game, ain′t shit here funny
You got me fucked up fucking with my money
Say, this ain't no game, ain′t shit here funny
You got me fucked up fucking with my money
This ain't no game, ain′t shit here funny
You got me fucked up fucking with my money
Say, this ain't no game, ain't shit here funny
You got me fucked up fucking with my money
In the song U Got Me Fucked Up, Chance the Rapper spits rhymes about money, school, and his skills as a rapper. He starts the song by talking about his skills in Spanish class and his fluency in English rap. He also brags about his ability to wear both Adidas and Nike brands. He talks about his friends and how he's cool with them, even though he keeps a low profile. He also mentions his bike and his drink, a Saki.

He describes his pants as baggy and his Vans as rancid. He talks about his band and the controversies they've faced, including being banned from band practice.
