Stain Glass
DJ MUGGS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Only Lord knows what it cost to make a check up in this bizzle
Niggas was rapping 'bout scraping Pyrex
Now they in WYSAC for shizzle
The projects is not sentimental
Nobody's your friend, them niggas finna plot on your head
Now why you moving like you bobbing for air?
Regardless, instead
That four-leaf clover turning brown
Nonetheless, look under the desk
Get stuck like some gum, who want some?
You had your nuts by the ton
You gon' end up tripping on, on your own nuts
You let, you let your nuts hang that low
Come on now, you look stupid nigga
These niggas talking about double, I make fucking septuple
I ruffle, I'm all about couples
So his and hers the duffle and Hindenburg the bubble, hustle
We inadvertent the muscle, you niggas nervous I don't trust you
You a bartender, right?
Why you pour Vermouth up in my extra dry?
(Dump Gawd)
Roll in the mud to get them bloodhounds off me (Brr)
Fucking with the thugs and the bustdowns doggy
We can skip the judge and the jaws now woadie (Grr)
We can get the plug and they pure now shorty
The lyrics in "Stain Glass" by DJ Muggs and Mach-Hommy contain a series of images that paint a bleak picture of life in the projects. The first line compares the act of catching souls to Karen Civil, a well-known media personality who has been accused of exploiting artists and their struggles for her own gain. This line suggests that the singer is similarly cold and calculating, willing to do whatever it takes to get ahead in life.
The next few lines refer to the idea of "making a check" in the music industry, possibly through illicit means. The line "Niggas was rapping 'bout scraping Pyrex / Now they in WYSAC for shizzle" suggests that these artists were once glorifying drug dealing in their music, but are now facing the consequences of their actions. The singer then warns that nobody in the projects can be trusted, and that everyone is out for themselves. The line "why you moving like you bobbing for air?" seems to suggest that the singer is aware of someone who is acting overly paranoid and suspicious, possibly because they know that their enemies are closing in on them.
The chorus of the song is a taunt directed at someone who is acting foolishly and putting themselves in danger. The line "you let your nuts hang that low / Come on now, you look stupid nigga" suggests that this person is flaunting their wealth and success in a way that is likely to attract unwanted attention. The singer warns that this behavior will only lead to trouble.
