Line by Line Meaning

Now let me ask you where you going
I want to know your destination and purpose in life

You can see I'm out here chasing dollars
I am actively pursuing financial success

Let em know it
Make it clear to others

If it ain't bout that then don't even bother
If it's not related to making money, don't waste your time

Keep it flowing
Continue the hustle without stopping

I won't stop til I'm on top of the world
I will not rest until I achieve unparalleled success

Top of the World
Reaching the highest level of achievement and power

Now let me ask you what you doing
Tell me about your current activities and pursuits

I been out here for some weeks, that means I'm getting to it
I have been actively working on my goals for a while now

Imma product of the streets and sewers, I'm influenced
My background and environment shaped who I am today

By the niggas I saw getting the cash, put the shit in the bag
I was inspired by those who successfully earned money

Go head and hit the Ave and let em have it
Take action and show everyone what you're capable of

You heard the shit about addiction, I seen plenty addicts
I am aware of the dangers of addiction from personal observation

Destined to be up at the top, my room was in the attic
I am meant to achieve great success, even though I started from humble beginnings

You see the chimney, I got smoke for the world
I have a lot to offer and will make an impact on a global scale

I fucked on your girl, showed her some shit you can't do
I engaged in intimate relations with your partner and displayed abilities you lack

Cock a doodle!
Expressing confidence and dominance

Grew up on government cheese, EBT and some Ramen Noodles
I was raised in a low-income household, relying on government assistance for basic necessities

Then I got fresh, they can attest to you that I ain't frugal
Afterward, I improved my lifestyle and can confirm that I am not cheap

They wanna be you but they ain't got the grind
Others desire to be like you, but lack the dedication and hard work

I don't got the time, 9 to 5 it don't add up
I prioritize my goals and don't believe a traditional 9 to 5 job aligns with them

I just sat up. Wrap it up
I took action and elevated myself. Finish what needs to be done

Tell em I do numbers they can check the data
Let them know that my achievements are quantifiable and can be verified

You can't eat if you ain't ever bring shit up to the platter
You won't achieve success if you don't put effort into the opportunities presented to you

I won't stop til we on top of the world
I will continue striving until we reach the pinnacle of success
