Lights Out
Dons Lyrics

Yeah
Expression of confidence or affirmation

This that "just got to a half a brick" music
Describes the genre of the music being played that is associated with drug dealing and the hustle

Young nigga
Specifies the rapper as being young and black

Putting lobster in the Oodles of Noodles
Indicates that the rapper has elevated his lifestyle from humble beginnings and now enjoys luxury

When I walk up in this bitch, they turn the lights out
The rapper is such a presence that people switch off the lights in admiration, respect, or fear

All the young niggas with me and they iced out
The rapper is surrounded by young people wearing expensive jewelry

I had to stack it up and get my mom a nice house
The rapper worked hard to accumulate wealth to buy a comfortable home for his mother

I could've did the Wraith, instead I brought the bikes out
The rapper could have spent money on a luxury car, but instead he chose to invest in an active lifestyle and purchased bicycles

We never live for tomorrow, new half a brick in the car
The rapper never plans for the future and is living in the moment, driving around with drugs in the car

Rich and my chick is a star, I never wish on a star
The rapper is wealthy and successful, but doesn't rely on wishful thinking to achieve his goals

Pull up and sit on the car, 'member when we used to starve
The rapper confidently sits on his car, reflecting on the times when he struggled to get by

Most of these niggas is frauds, they not who they say that they are
The rapper believes that many people are pretending to be someone they're not, especially in the music industry

Niggas do it for the Internet
Some people create a false persona on social media to attract attention

We ain't really really into that
The rapper is not interested in the fake image that people try to portray online

Push a foreign but you rented that
Some people rent luxury cars to create a false image of success, but the rapper sees through it

Shoot a scene, gotta give it back
When renting items to create a fake persona for a music video, they must be returned afterwards

Took a loss on a lil cash
The rapper lost some money but it doesn't bother him too much

I ain't trip about it, had to get it back
The rapper is not overly concerned about the loss because he knows he can earn it back

Move work like SlimFast
The rapper moves drugs quickly and efficiently

Niggas in and out with a fifty pack
Drug dealers quickly enter and exit a location with a small package of drugs

Plugged in with the plugs, spites on with the blood
The rapper has a reliable connection with his drug suppliers

Fell back, got the Balmains 'cause the pockets only fit a dub
The rapper switched to more affordable clothing because expensive designer clothes no longer fit in his budget

That was never what it was, I'ma tell it like it is
The rapper is honest and straightforward about his words and actions

Bust down with the sig, whole gang with me on the way to LIV
The rapper is wearing a luxury watch while traveling with his friends to a popular club

Every nigga with me iced out
All of the rapper's friends are wearing expensive jewelry

Diamonds dance when the lights out
When the lights are turned off, the diamonds in the jewelry sparkle and look impressive

I just upgraded my lifestyle
The rapper has recently improved his standard of living

Overnight and they like, "How?"
The rapper's unexpected success has surprised people

I treat my whip like a pet
The rapper takes great care of his car

I step on the gas and you hear the pipes growl
The sound of the car's engine is impressive

I got like twenty on me at the car wash
The rapper has cash on him while getting his car washed

Got the Benz getting wiped down
The rapper is having his Mercedes-Benz cleaned and polished

Diss records, keep my name out it
The rapper wants to avoid being criticized or attacked by others in their music

I promise you won't get no fame out it
The rapper is not interested in getting attention from negative publicity

Rapping 'bout certain trap houses
Some rappers mention specific locations where drugs are sold in their music

Reminiscing when I used to slang out it
The rapper is reflecting on his past when he used to sell drugs

My life was excitin', all of this ice on
The rapper's life is more exciting now that he's wealthy and wears expensive jewelry

You catch me in Dyckman, I make it look easy
The rapper appears to be at ease in a public location called Dyckman

They hate when they see me, I'm higher than deacon
People are envious of the rapper's success and wealth

I'm speaking with Meeky and chasing the 'guine
The rapper is spending time with his friend Meeky and trying to make money

Or you broke, you just feel abandoned
People who are poor may feel neglected or unsupported

Crowd screaming and I hear 'em chant
The rapper's audience is excited and cheering for him

Watch you steer the Phantom when I'm in the Hamptons
The rapper is watching a wealthy person drive a luxury car in a high-end location called the Hamptons

Same crew since when I was wearin' Vans
The rapper has been friends with the same people since his less wealthy days

It's show time when the gang appearin'
The rapper and his friends bring excitement and energy wherever they go

Niggas hating but the bitches starin'
Men may be jealous of the rapper's success while women are attracted to him

Who would think that I'd get a mansion?
The rapper is surprised by his own success

Twenty chains in the mirror, dancin'
The rapper is wearing numerous chains of jewelry that look impressive as they move with his body

New crib with the elevator
The rapper has moved to a new home with an elevator

I got hella haters and they mad at me
The rapper has many enemies who are angry with him

Up in Niemans, going bad at it
The rapper is shopping at a luxury store called Neiman Marcus

Canada, like it was mad madness
The rapper had an exciting experience in Canada

'Member back when I was dead pop
The rapper is remembering a time when he was broke

Pretty bitches used to laugh at us
Attractive women used to make fun of the rapper and his friends

Now I pull up in the red drop
The rapper now drives a red convertible

With the thirty on me and the red dot
The rapper is carrying a firearm, represented by a red laser sight

And I lean on 'em when I come through like, "Swerve"
The rapper uses a driving maneuver and hand gesture to express confidence while arriving at a location

Rat niggas up the street, shit, I'm like, "They got some nerve"
The rapper sees people he dislikes and is surprised that they are in his neighborhood

Every nigga 'round me look like they got them birds
The rapper and his friends seem to have connections to illegal activity involving drugs or money

Bust down, Big Meech, nigga, we ain't sweet beef, we purge
The rapper references a former drug dealer named Big Meech and asserts that he and his friends are not afraid to engage in violence

I bet a mill that you know me, I used to run in them spots
The rapper is confident that many people are familiar with his past in the drug trade

We was just punching the last four, you was just punching the clock
The rapper and his friends used to package drugs while others were working a regular job

I just got rid of my last whore, then I gave her mother a shot
The rapper recently broke up with his girlfriend and had sex with her mother

Pour up, I'm down to my last four, and I fill my cup to the top
The rapper has very little money left, but still indulges in expensive habits

To my hood, I'm an icon, watching out for the pythons
The rapper is considered a legend in his neighborhood but is also cautious of potential dangers

10K on the left wrist, another dub on my right arm
The rapper is wearing an expensive bracelet on his left wrist and has $20,000 in cash on his right arm

I still come and spend nights on corners niggas took lives on
The rapper continues to visit places where people have been killed in the past

And they ain't lackin', believe me, they packin'
The people in the area are armed and ready for potential problems

My youngins, they keeping they pipes drawn
The rapper's younger associates are carrying weapons for protection

When I walk up in this bitch, they turn the lights out
Reinforces the opening line and indicates the rapper's charisma and influence

All the young niggas with me and they iced out
Reinforces the fact that the rapper is followed by young people who are wearing expensive jewelry

I had to stack it up and get my mom a nice house
Reinforces the close relationship the rapper has with his mother

I could've did the Wraith, instead I brought the bikes out, yeah
Reinforces the idea that the rapper is more interested in an active lifestyle than in material possessions
