Oh Wow...Swerve
Dreamville Lyrics

Yeah, you want the next part, kablaow
You're excited about what's coming next and want a sudden explosive sound (like 'kablaow')

That's that shit, that's the part right here
You recognize that this part of the song is the best and most enjoyable

Shit, I'm proud
You feel proud of your accomplishments and abilities

The track, got a whole lot of cash
The song is popular and successful, bringing in a lot of money

Kablaow, I put a hole in your
You'll use violence (metaphorically) to deal with anyone who crosses you

Oh wow (oh wow, oh wow)
You're impressed and amazed by what's happening

She got a big old ass (shawty got a big ol' butt, shit)
You find a woman's large buttocks attractive

I'm proud (but)
You're proud of your own achievements but recognize your flaws and limitations

I got a whole lot of cash
You have a lot of money

Kablaow
You'll use violence (metaphorically) to deal with anyone who crosses you

I put a hole in your ass (and then)
You'll retaliate with force if someone causes you harm or disrespect

I'm out
You're leaving, possibly to avoid further confrontation or to focus on your own pursuits

Like a motherfuckin' lamp
You're leaving quickly and decisively

Smoke in my nappy dreads, how you scared to die, nigga?
You're comfortable with yourself and unafraid of death, despite societal pressures and expectations

Don't believe that lie, I think that everybody happy dead
You refuse to accept the idea that death automatically means peace and happiness for everyone

Hell is a fabricated figment of imagination
You don't believe in the traditional concepts of religion and damnation

I done seen worse for real right there off Yadkin and behind gas station
You've witnessed firsthand the real-world horrors and atrocities that exist in your community

Cambridge Homes, 'partments where the girls get damaged young
You're aware of the struggles and dangers faced by young women in your community

From overexposure to the vultures
You recognize the predatory and manipulative behavior of certain people in your community

That prey on them like pastors is supposed to
You're critical of religious figures who use their power and position to take advantage of vulnerable people

If they wasn't so concerned
You believe that young people in your community prioritize material possessions over their own well-being

About the tags that's on they clothes, but
You're frustrated by the superficial values and priorities in your community

Guess that's how it goes, fuck it, what do I know?
You acknowledge your own ignorance and uncertainty about the problems and issues in your community

Ain't been in service since Jim Jones had somethin' with Hov
You haven't followed organized religion or spirituality since a famous cult leader had a connection with a famous rapper

I document my life with rap beefs, love songs, favorite albums
You use music to express and process your experiences, emotions, and memories

In years that my niggas got blood on
You've experienced violence and loss in your community

They sneakers from bodies they might've caught
You've seen and been affected by the violent and dangerous environment in your community

I don't judge no one, I'm just knowin'
You observe and understand the struggles and behaviors of people in your community without passing judgment

At night, when it get quiet, that shit could fuck with 'em
You're aware of the psychological toll and trauma that violence and danger can have on people

And if it don't right now, it's gon' catch up to 'em
You believe that the consequences of violence and trauma will eventually manifest themselves, even if they don't immediately

Guilt heavy as a cloud in a thunderstorm, huh
You understand the overwhelming and suffocating feeling of guilt

My niggas blowing loud like an elephant
Your friends and community members cope with their struggles and pain through drug use

It's helpin' 'em to cope, I don't do nothin' if it don't
You recognize that everyone has their own ways of coping with their problems, and you don't judge them for it

Make somethin', make a dollar
You prioritize making money and being productive

Make me wonder, make me prouder
You seek fulfillment and pride in your work and accomplishments

Make me karma, make me better
You strive to do good and improve yourself as a person

I ain't no killer, don't make me have to, nigga
You reject violence and aggression as a means of resolving conflicts

You want my spot, well maybe after, nigga
You're confident in your own abilities and position, and won't easily give it up to someone else

So active on the radio, I'm radioactive, nigga, ooh
Your music is heavily played and popular on radio stations, making you 'radioactive'

That's a bar, I had to give it to 'em
You recognize your own cleverness and skill in writing lyrics

Never slouching, not even on couches in the living room
You're always alert and ready, even in relaxed or comfortable situations

And I feel like the world is ending soon
You have a sense of despair and pessimism about the state of the world

Is there any good or bad? Well that's depending on you
You recognize the subjective nature of morality and ethics

And if you wake up in time
You believe that people have the power to change the world if they're aware of and active in it

I know it's better to be sleep, that's why we hate the alarm
You recognize the comfort and safety of ignorance and avoidance, even if it's not productive or healthy

I got a whole lot of cash (racks, racks, racks)
You have a lot of money

Oh yeah
You're feeling confident and satisfied

(Bizness Boi) yeah, uh, oh yeah
You give a shoutout to the producer of the song

If I keep moving like this, then I'ma glide
You feel like you're effortlessly succeeding and progressing

Happy on the outside, jealous on the inside
You project happiness and satisfaction but have internal struggles and insecurities

And I know it inside, inside out, ay
You're self-aware and understand your own emotions and thoughts

What this shit here mean? Is this Japanese? Huh
You're confused or skeptical about something

The way I'm robbin', niggas say I'm gonna die
You're involved in criminal activity and know the risks that come with it

I bought a baby Draco carbon, that's a motherfuckin' lie
You're denying rumors or accusations that you've acquired weapons

Stephen Curry on my hip, Klay Thompson, let it fly
You're skilled and confident in using firearms

Southwest Murder Block Crips, we don't die, we multiply (Crip)
You're affiliated with a gang and take pride in their reputation and power

Maxo talk a lot of shit but is he really 'bout that life? (Say what?)
You're questioning the authenticity and credibility of someone's claims or actions

Is a pig's pussy pork and can a caterpillar fly? (That's right)
You're using sarcasm and rhetorical questions to criticize someone's stupidity or ignorance

Go Go Gadget, toting ratchets, beam attachment on the side
You're boasting about your ability to obtain and use weapons

I keep a savage that'll blast it, my crash dummies down to ride
You have loyal and willing accomplices who will participate in criminal activity with you

These niggas janky than a bitch, I do my shit up on my lonely
You don't trust or rely on other people, preferring to work independently

So I can't trust you on a lick if you not Nina, Mac, or Tommy
You only trust a select few people who you know well and have worked with before

Trap house serving like hibachi, Draco, chopstick, baby AK
You're operating a drug house and using weapons for protection

Different flavors like Tekashi, twelve gauge shotty like I'm Tr3yway
You're referencing popular rappers and their associations with gang culture and violence

Maxo Kobe, holy moly, servin' Smokey like I'm Day-Day
You're using wordplay and pop culture references to boast about your drug dealing abilities

Runnin' out of dog food like I fed Chico
You're using a metaphor to describe your depleted drug supply

Put a brick on your head and get you dropped like Deebo
You're threatening physical violence against someone who threatens or disrespects you

I'm slangin' bricks like Craig, I'm tryna drop these bows (Maxo, Maxo, Maxo, Maxo)
You're dealing drugs and trying to earn as much money as possible

Alright, I fucked up my whip 'cause I'm high and I swerve
You crashed your car because you were under the influence of drugs

Sorry that I scared you, I ain't do that on purpose
You're apologizing for any harm or fear you caused, even if it wasn't intentional

My life been fucked up so I got problems with my nerves
You've experienced trauma or stress that has affected your mental health

My hands be sweaty
You're experiencing physical symptoms of anxiety or stress
