The lyrics of "48 Bar Rap" by Chris Brown and Tyga is a braggadocious rap about their wealth, success, and prowess with women. The song's opening lines "Yea, It Go. It's What They Wanted Right?" set the tone for a song that showcases their luxurious lifestyle that their fans expect to see. The first verse talks about the duo's love for fast cars, beautiful women, and parties. Chris Brown, who starts off the verse, talks about his ability to charm several women at once, drive expensive cars, and live large. Tyga continues with his verse, mentioning that he is different from other rappers, which is why his popularity is skyrocketing. He is not afraid to show off his wealth, and he is not apologetic about how he got it.
The chorus "They Say A Singer Can't Rap, I Ain't Hearing It, Cause After These Couple Songs, I Been Killing Shxt" affirms the duo's belief in their rapping skills, and they do not let anyone's opinion hold them down. They continue with their braggadocious rap lines, describing themselves as better than other rappers and threatening to dismantle their careers. Chris Brown and Tyga's lyrics in "48 Bar Rap" are indicative of the flashy and boastful nature of some hip-hop songs, where lyrics about material possessions, sexual conquests, and strength are highly valued.
