Prayers Over Packages
DJ MUGGS Lyrics

What get you killed faster, too much love
What is more dangerous, having too much love in your heart or not having enough of it?

Trust or truth?
Which is more important, trusting someone or telling the truth?

What's the difference between Malcolm Martin and Huey Newt?
What distinguishes Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., and Huey Newton from each other?

Sometimes a nigga downfall is who he knew
Sometimes the people you associate with can be the cause of your downfall.

Do you view the world through wise eyes or Is your mind in a hula hoop?
Do you have a wise and realistic view of the world or are you living in a fantasy land?

We woke but still sold rotten Fruit in pursuit of loot
We are aware of injustices and corruption in the world but still engage in immoral activities to make money.

Tryna go from the stoop to the newest coupe
Trying to go from a poor lifestyle to living a luxurious one.

Smoothest criminal with elusive moves
Being slick and cunning when committing crimes.

In tune with street scholars and goons
Being connected and in sync with both intelligent and criminal people on the streets.

Haile Selassie, art and crackpot fumes
Being influenced by the Rastafarian leader Haile Selassie, artistic expression, and drug culture.

Mathematics live from where it's all about Who pull the faster ratchet And cash too
Living in an environment where it's all about who has the fastest gun and who has the most money.

But when your mask split That's it cut from a different cloth
When someone sees through your disguise, you are exposed as being different from the rest of the group.

You niggas raggedy fabric
You guys are not well put together and lack style and class.

Lacking swag, just rappity rap shit
Being untrendy and out of touch with modern hip-hop culture.

Ain't raising the bar high, fall guys Be lying 'bout mob ties
Not setting high standards and goals for oneself, and pretending to be affiliated with a criminal organization when in reality you are not.

These niggas really givin off broad vibes
These guys are giving off feminine and weak energy.

It's the lord like Finesse and Sonny Carson Mind on the money often Rockin slick shit, the god of horsemen
Being a leader and in control like Finesse and Sonny Carson, always focused on making money, and being the best at what you do.

I said prayers over packages Hopin' to God that we could Sell it fast as shit Mommy told me "never slack off Nigga there's plenty cash to get Never get too caught up in the moment Gotta capture it"
Praying for the success of his illegal drug operation while also being reminded by his mother to always work hard and not get too distracted by temporary pleasures.

Ayo coming up, had mad friends Close ones, homies, associates Some died, went to jail Some niggas overdosed on opiates
Growing up, having many friends and acquaintances, some of whom died, went to prison, or suffered from drug addiction.

I been to hell and back but I'm Gucci now Niggas know we lit
Having overcome difficult challenges and obstacles, and now living a successful and popular lifestyle.

Bitch from Jamaica, weed from Amsterdam The pistol Soviet you salty, so be it You niggas won't be shit
Having connections with people from different parts of the world, and being unapologetically confident in his own success.

You copying the style of a nigga who Made a style off of stolen shit
Copying the style of a person who has based their style on something that was not originally theirs.

I body you and send your hoe condolences Black roses on ya gravesite and blunt Ashes while I smoke a spliff
Threatening to kill someone and then mocking them by smoking a joint and using their ashes as fertilizer for black roses on their grave.

Wondering why niggas is fiend' the fuck out I sold them this So forever my shit'll always be on solar
Being aware of the negative effects of drugs on people, but continuing to sell them in order to maintain one's own success and wealth.

Bitch supreme soloist in a Polo fit All y'all already knowin' it I call my esé up and ya soul'll lift
Being the best in the game with confidence and style, and being able to provide uplifting energy to those around him.

I been a hustler That shit's embedded in my DNA Could sell a roach Raid, a weed-head crack And a vegan steak
Being a natural-born hustler due to his upbringing and being able to sell anything, whether it's a bug spray, drugs, or even a vegan meal.

Well aware when I'm out there in the field Yeah I see the play Like Curtis Riley, know the world is grimy Still I keep a K (Brr)
Being knowledgeable about the risks and dangers of engaging in illegal activities, but still being willing to protect oneself with a gun.

Fuck outta here you're dead
Dismissing someone as being irrelevant or of no importance.
