Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nigga what's the hold up
Tell that to bitch hold up
Boy
Pussy nigga playin with the paper, hold up
Frontin' on the stash with the grip, hold up
Shawty blowing up the phone, told her hold up
Pussy nigga playin with the paper, hold up
Frontin' on the stash with the grip, hold up
Shawty blowing up the phone, told her hold up
Nigga get your own brick, what's the hold up
Yay
Broke niggas pay 'em no mind
Nah bitch I don't wanna fuck
Wish a nigga try and run up on me
[?]
Money like a I pull up in a Brinks
24K on the link
He ain't got to give it, I'mma take mine
Hungry young niggas [?]
My connect look just like Diego [?]
I'ma leave what I came for
Niggas goin' shoot when I say so
Lawyer goin' handle that case load
Sharks in that water nigga swim
Had one shot so I threw it at the rim
She took one until the nigga started rapping [?]
Then hung around a nigga with a M
Bet a nigga gonna give it to you for the pay
Headshot, No. 1 is on the way
Green light when a nigga on the safe
Got him for the two guns and a brick out the safe
Young nigga with the strap [?], nigga suicide driller
Countin' on this blood money
Can't put it in the bank, gotta stash it in the ceiling
Pussy nigga playin with the paper, hold up
Frontin' on the stash with the grip, hold up
Shawty blowing up the phone, told her hold up
Nigga get your own brick, what's the hold up
Pussy nigga playin with the paper, hold up
Frontin' on the stash with the grip, hold up
Shawty blowing up the phone, told her hold up
Nigga get your own brick, what's the hold up
Nigga came from the slums and the sewers, (ha)
Still drug money spent it with the jewelers, (right)
Bunch of soft guys on computers, (boy)
Best put some respect on the shooter (yay)
Cut a fuck nigga some slack, usually I don't
Nigga I'll risk it all, if you think I won't (boy)
For the money I'ma take mine
Glock .40 on the waist line
Ain't nothing sweet about 'em
If I was you I wouldn't taste mine
When I don't got a bed, drop in at the vault
I sleep on that money, and play on that court
AK-47, handguns with extenders
While your homeboy getting robbed where was your antennas?
But you be on point tho
Heads or tails, just a coin toss
Up and down in inner state
Main objective is to get the joints off
Pussy nigga playin with the paper, hold up
Frontin' on the stash with the grip, hold up
Shawty blowing up the phone, told her hold up
Nigga get your own brick, what's the hold up
Pussy nigga playin with the paper, hold up
Frontin' on the stash with the grip, hold up
Shawty blowing up the phone, told her hold up
Nigga get your own brick, what's the hold up
