DeJ Loaf was born in Detroit, Michigan and raised on the east side of the city in the Fairview Housing projects. Growing up, she would often listen to music with her parents and grandmother, ranging "from 2Pac to Rakim to Miles Davis." Her father was killed when she was aged 4. A self-described "good kid and a decent student" who mostly kept to herself, she began writing her own original music as early as 9 years old. She graduated high school in 2009, played basketball up to the junior varsity level, and later attended Saginaw Valley State University to study nursing for three semesters before deciding to focus on a full-time music career.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm pausin' cause I'm fly and I feel like I'm the shit
My squad up in ?, we got in with a dub
I only fuck with ballers, we don't fuck around with scrubs
Nigga yayo
All my niggas be like yayo
Say yayo
All my niggas be like yayo
Walkin' past the bouncers, standin' on the couches
Bottles for my squad, nigga that's a couple thousand
Nigga yayo
All my niggas be like yayo
Yayo
All these ? haters
Yayo
All these ? haters
Feelin' like a god, oh my fuckin' God
Did you just see that car? That bitch go so hard
That don't make no sense, got these haters pissed
Heard you had a problem, when I see you it ain't shit
I'ma represent, all I make is hits
Got too many styles, I don't know which one to pick
They can't put me in a box, free my niggas locked
Every day I pop a bottle for my niggas in the sky
We been eatin' good, hater how you like me now?
All that steak and all that shrimp, I done gained a couple pounds
We gon' slim it down, we gon' take over your town
Ain't no hoes in my circle, nah we don't fuck around
Ciroc by the cases, pour it on you basics
Let a nigga try me, light him up, don't use no tasers
I can't do no favors, I'm so fuckin' player
I should run for mayor, niggas watchin' me like cable
