DJ Antoine & Timati Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Black Star, DJ Antoine, yeah, here we go now

Money I make, pockets can’t break
Pop champagne, everything’s straight
First class trips, high class chicks
Men selling cars, high class whips
We fall so hard in a shopping mall
Price tags we never look it all

Pay cash, or check or credit card
It don’t matter dogh cause we go!!t it all
We do it big never small
I don’t say too much cause money talks
So going to check you at us
Used to be staying at the Palms Atlantis
Smocking shish with shish
Stacey, Alyssa, Tracey, Teresa
Turn the whole town, I want to believe in
Auuuu let’s go

If it ain’t ’bout money, it don’t make sense
If it ain’t ’bout money, it don’t make sense
And if it ain’t ’bout money
It don’t make sense
And I’m just trying to get me
Some of their friends and dance
And go like money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
If it ain’t ’bout money, it don’t make sense
And if it ain’t ’bout money
It don’t make sense
And if it ain’t ’bout money
It don’t make sense
And if it ain’t ’bout money
It don’t make sense
And I’m just trying to get me
Some of their friends and dance
And go like money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
If it ain’t ’bout money, it don’t make sense

Yes, you should be very impressed
When I pull up at in sea in my private jet
Million dollar wrist wear, I never stress
Spending money
’cause every other day I collect
More money than we got palm trees
Cash days in my pocket like car keys
Can’t keep these model chicks on me
Rolls Royce, Lamborghini and Ferrari
I carry my chicks in these
They’re all living it good
Getting whatever they need i say to prepare
That’s why I put them in the street
I got money like that, yes indeed
I have to shut them all
Down ’cause we owned it
If you wanna do it big
Look at how we’re rolling
Bugatti EB made out of gold
And it does what it told you to go down

If it ain’t ’bout money, it don’t make sense
If it ain’t ’bout money, it don’t make sense
And if it ain’t ’bout money
It don’t make sense
And I’m just trying to get me
Some of their friends and dance
And go like money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
If it ain’t ’bout money, it don’t make sense
And if it ain’t ’bout money
It don’t make sense
And if it ain’t ’bout money
It don’t make sense
And if it ain’t ’bout money
It don’t make sense
And I’m just trying to get me
Some of their friends and dance
And go like money money money
And we’d be getting money money money
And we’d be getting money money money

And we’d be getting money money money
Uh yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to DJ Antoine vs. Timati's "Amanama" glorify the pursuit and indulgence in wealth and luxury. The first verse provides a laundry list of opulent experiences and possessions, such as first-class trips and high-class women, that money can buy. The second verse boasts of private jets, expensive jewelry, and the ability to shut down entire streets with their lavish lifestyles. The refrain, "If it ain't 'bout money, it don't make sense," reinforces their belief that money is the key to happiness and success.

The song's tone is celebratory and confident, with a catchy beat and repetitive chorus meant to encourage listeners to dance and revel in the idea of wealth and luxury. The lyrics, however, can be seen as shallow and materialistic, promoting a lifestyle that values possessions over people and experiences.

Overall, "Amanama" portrays an aspirational view of wealth and success, but it also highlights the emptiness and superficiality of such a life.
