The lyrics to D.R.N.D.Y's song Fever speak to the theme of envy and hate (chuki in Swahili) that the artist has experienced in his life. D.R.N.D.Y acknowledges the negative reactions that his success has garnered and how people try to put the heat on him because he has no boundaries in his life. He finds it funny that some people are constantly checking him out and waiting for an opportunity to beef with him. Despite this, he has a little secret that frequently brings him cash and he keeps something that never grounds him. He acknowledges fake looks and ill feelings, but he's not worried about those as he flies over his detractors like the X-Games. He's naturally gassing them and admits he gets mad when the checks come in, signaling that he has made it against all odds. The artist suggests that envy can kill and tries to distance himself from those who have chuki.
The lyrics continue to paint a picture of someone who is successful and attracting hate from some quarters. The artist acknowledges that some people have been acting funny around him because of his wealth and wants to distance himself from them. He talks about being with a woman who attracts attention, and some people want to cuff their biznitches while others are quick snitches in a cop car. D.R.N.D.Y clarifies that he is a rockstar like Sid Vicious and has big riches, so they have no reason to shoot him. He addresses people who act bootsy, meaning that they try to act tough when they are not. The artist's detractors have been hating on him, and it is highly likely that they are envious of his success. The lyric "You the one that's gon' come down with it" echoes this sentiment where those with chuki are the ones who will come down.
