We roll like this

Ya'll know what we do, ya'll know exactly how we rolling
And we hugging every block don't matter how police patrol it
And we do it how we do it whether it's now or it's later
And we always handle business 'cause we 'bout gettin this paper
What you want?, What you need?, As we walk through every gutter
Every hood and every street and every block we got it covered
Throwing money while we in the club with shorties on the pole
Lets get it popping in this bitch, me and my clique coming through

That's how we roll
We roll like this
That's how we roll
We roll like this
That's how we roll
We roll like this (we roll like this)
That's how we roll (yeah, he he, yeah)
We roll like this (hey let's get it)
(Reek da Vill' get'em)
We roll like this

Hop in any vehicle I choose
I get up in that 'Vet and start it all you hear is vrooom
Roaring up the engine 'till it pop like a balloon
Light my dutch hit the clutch throw it in the gear and peew
Riding in the fast cars driving like it's NASCAR
Tearing up the asphalt when I'm in that Jaguar
Dipping away from Nassau, redlining the dash board
Exhaust blowing fire (yeah, yeah, J-Doe, alright)
Like a rocket 'bout to blast off, fast y'all

You know how we roll (roll), you know how we do it (do it)
You know we the realest when it come to doing music (yeah)
Don't wanna see me prove it baby, if I gotta lose it (woop)
Then it's on turn ya radio on, you gon hear the newest
J-Doe spits hate on this, why the hell you doing that
How the hell you being loser hating on me? I'm the best
I be pissing on competition if there's any give me more my flows
Or let me get me used up fork don't need a Jimmy and Newegie boys

That's how we roll
We-we-we roll like this
That's how we roll
We roll like this (we roll like this, we roll like this)
That's how we roll
We roll like this ((we roll like this)
That's how we roll

We roll like this

Here we go here we here we go again
Pedal to the metal now we blowing in the wind
Top back nigga better stop that
If you trynna front you already know we killers to the end
Everyday we gotta go secure another win
Put that money where ya mouth will spend
Let's get it popping everybody know that
When we in the building, here we go again
Couple Porsches, couple Bugatti's, Phantoms
Derek, Lam', Lenches, couple of Maybachs
Suited and booted, SLR McLaren bitches
Rolling see the way we holding see the money folding
Everybody see the way we hit it, chosen when we hit the road and
Everything is golden ya'll already know how we get it (vroom)
Peel out on they ass, 160 weed on the dash
Hand on the wheel I'ma feed on the gas (conglomerate), got everything on smash
Don Omar lets get it, Reek da Vill', J-Doe what up?
See the way we do it, see the way we cut up
Put ya money where ya mouth is or shut up
Legal shots everybody in the place let me see you put ya gun up

That's how we roll
We roll like this ((we roll like this)

Overall Meaning

The song "How We Roll" is a collaborative effort by Don Omar, J-Doe, Reek da Villain, and Busta Rhymes. The song is a declaration of their lifestyle and how they roll through the streets. The lyrics outline the bravado and confidence with which they move, always doing whatever they please, handling business while being in control, and seeking nothing but paper. The song is an expression of their success and notoriety in the music industry, with lyrics that suggest that they are the best in the game and possess the skills and talents that keep them on top. They move with ease from one street to another, covering every block, even with police patrol, because they know exactly how to handle themselves.


They throw money around in the club, with shorties on their pole, as they get it popping. Reek da Villain adds to the song, essentially telling the listeners about the different high-end cars he owns and drives, often wildin' in them like he's NASCAR racing. J Doe comes through with a rap that tells the haters and the competition that he is the best, and they can't do anything about it. The chorus says it all- "That's how we roll, we roll like this," suggesting that their lifestyle is a form of art and an expression of themselves.

Spotify needs to bring this song back to the app! It’s on Spotify but you just can’t play it and it’s such a great song! The nostalgia is crazy 😭
