Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Riding through the city
If I’m in the Benz then my bro riding with me yeah yea
Copped a whole 50 blow the house down blowin smoke like chimney
Got the wrong niggas for the wrong reason now them boys got a sentence
And if a nigga play knock his lights out like he playing with pictures
Playing with pictures
Whole team beat a nigga bad fast
Beef over phone y’all can have that
I ain’t got time for no tags
Hoes sit on they back and just nag
Niggas acting like hoes just sad
Get back we don’t know ya
Even though ain’t even there imma have the city on my shoulder (playing with the picture)
Told them broke boys that Im running to them figures
If you kept it real then I gotta fwu
Now and days niggas switch up I can’t feel em
Nor fuck with em

Friends don’t hear em
Trends I set em

Make you a beat so you can be on the next top level
Damn why these niggas sweating me ?
Damn why these people keep tellin me ?
Where and how tf I betta be
Rats you betta not tell on me
Hell nah jaydawgg ain’t got no felony
I gotta live my best life
Niggas ask where you going ? (Where you going)
You betta choose the best side
Riding through the city
If I’m in the Benz then my bro riding with me yeah yea
Copped a whole 50 blow the house down blowin smoke like chimney
Got the wrong niggas for the wrong reason now them boys got a sentence
And if a nigga play knock his lights out like he playing with pictures
Playing with pictures
Riding through the city
If I’m in the Benz then my bro riding with me yeah yea
Copped a whole 50 blow the house down blowin smoke like chimney
Got the wrong niggas for the wrong reason now them boys got a sentence
And if a nigga play knock his lights out like he playing with pictures

Line by Line Meaning

It goes one for the money, homie, two for the show
Starting off this performance, we're bringing our A-game


We tore the roof off this mutha, now it's time to blow
We've already made a huge impact, now we're going to take it to the next level


Like we don't need no water, don't bother, we let it burn
We're so hot that we don't need any outside help to keep our fire going


We keep the fire just a little bit hotter, that way you'll learn
We're always pushing our own limits, to show others what's possible


Respect I earn! Started with the clique that I hang
I've earned my respect by surrounding myself with great people


Respect I earn! Ever since I got in this game
From the very beginning of my career, I've been earning respect


Respect I earn! Never wanted fortune or fame
My motives were always genuine, and not based on personal gain


I'd rather have these South D'ego Streets knowing my name
I care more about the local community and being known there, than being famous all over


Chiggy Check - Microphone check
Making sure everything is in place before starting the show


Lights out! Game over!
We're here to dominate and no one can stand in our way


If you wanna you can check my stats
Our success speaks for itself, go ahead and verify it


Make way cause the kings is back
We're back and reclaiming our position at the top of the game


We bang boogie through your system subliminal
Our music seeps into your mind without you even realizing it


We lyrical murdering like we criminals
Our lyrics are so powerful that it's like committing a crime


Life or Death medical decision
Our music has the ability to impact people's lives in a significant way


We so dope out the lab that you'll need a prescription
Our music is so good that it's like a drug, you need a prescription to handle it


The hood is listening so for you that I wrote this
We're making music for our community, to have a meaningful impact on their lives


Keep it underground! Sticking to the streets like the homeless
We don't need mainstream success, we're happy staying true to our roots


With the dopeness, recognize the real P.O.D.
Our music is authentic and unique, and that is what sets us apart


Cause we triple O, O triple, triple O.G.
We're the original gangsters, legendary and respected


Word on the streets is the boys is back
Our return has been eagerly anticipated and the excitement is building


Worldwide only paying respects
Our influence and reach is global, and our followers are only showing us respect
