Chinx Drugz ft French Montana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They keep me thinking that we
Almost had it all the scars of your love
They leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat
Look, I peep the game through that wide lens
Haters like "why him? " and not them
Niggas get played like violins
Try not to sin neutral but I'm with 5 brims
Niggas like to smoke weed and ride
Rims you ain't high as them
That money coming I'm feeling good
That blicka on me I wish a nigga would
Wrist stupid yo bitch scooped me
You just started playing ball I been hoopin'
I'm a coke boy I'm a coke boy I'm
A I'm a I'm a aye aye
Look at time on my audemar
Grind all day so I can ball tomorrow
Talk to my money nigga heart to heart
Settle for a that's an R & R
Now now now you wanna tag along
Coulda been here coulda had it all
You know we coulda rock-rocked the stage
Now all u can do is just rap along
1-4-8 and I moved in it said fucked
The game and rules in it
Top off the drop when we cruise in it
New fly crib in it 2 pools in it
Me and Chinx Drugz on i5
New York nigga in the sky box
Pent house suite watch time fly
All them fly freaks wanna stop by
They talk bout the money nigga now this
Blue and white chain call it maverick
I'm on them notes nigga high pitch
Spend that money nigga high risk
Hit these streets got my cake up
Live your dream and never wake up
I'm ballin mane, tourin mane
Coke boy team is what they call us mane
The song "Had It All" by Chinx Drugz ft French Montana talks about their struggles and success as they made it out of their neighborhoods. The first verse emphasizes the importance of staying true to one's roots, regardless of where life takes them. They prioritize their safety, even if it means selling something valuable like a chain or pawning it. They have already been through a lot and have come out on top. The second verse reflects on the harsh realities of living in the streets. They carry a loaded gun for protection and know the consequences if caught. Despite reaping money from their illegal activities, they acknowledge the potentially fatal risks that come with it. In the third verse, they call out those who talk but do not act. They have faced doubt and negativity from others but have persevered nevertheless. They are not afraid to defend themselves physically if needed.
One interesting fact about the song is that it was released posthumously after Chinx Drugz was murdered in 2015. The song was originally recorded before his death and features French Montana, who was a close friend and collaborator. The song's title may also allude to Chinx's status before he died as he had achieved a lot of success in his career. Another interesting fact is that both Chinx and French Montana are from Queens, New York, and have often referenced their community in their music. The song's beat was produced by Velous, who has also worked with Kanye West and Jeremih. Another notable collaborator on the song is Harry Fraud, who mixed and mastered it. The lyrics in the song's chorus were inspired by a quote from rapper Jim Jones, who said, "It ain't where you're from; it's where you're at." The song's music video, which was directed by Kid Art, features scenes of French Montana in Morocco in tribute to his heritage.
The chords for "Had It All" are not provided as the song is a hip-hop track and does not feature traditional musical instruments.

The scars of your love, remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all

Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it
To the beat

I love how French always gave Chinx his best feature verses. It sounded like he actually tried when he was on a Chinx track. That’s how you know they was real brothers. Rip Chinx
@matthewcarvalho6657
U ever heard the conspiracies that chinx was his sacrifice into the illuminati ?
@KingDomsKingdom85
Chinx was heavily underrated, Cocaine Riot 4 was a banger of a mixtape.

As a huge Chinx fan, and from the east coast myself..I know alot about this man. He loved Adele and it was his dream to work with her one day. Fucking shame that cowards took his life over jealousy of his success. He was fly and he worked hard and earned his way out of the hood. In my eyes he's a legend. I know he'd be tearing up the charts right now. Only the good. Rest easy love and thru your music you are still here with us. #legendsneverdie #yay #number1cokeboy
