Hideaway
Eli Sostre Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Two years ago I was starving' now we gon' touch us a mil'
Bitch be the luge to my sate' please get the fuck out my face
I'm smokin' up something that stank
I'm countin' my blessings today
Bitch you could die today
So is you gon' ride today?
Bitch I might hide away
I put my spot away
I put a stash away
I put the Glock away
Money and manners, move to Atlanta
Yeah she too fancy, she used to be dancin'
How'd you get money? I shouldn't have asked
You got an ass' lemme see it from the back
I fuck with you real, still give a fuck 'bout a deal
Two years ago I was starving, now we gon' touchin' some mil'
Bitch be the luge to my sate' please get the fuck out my face
I'm smokin' up something that stank
I'm countin' my blessings today
Bitch you could die today
So is you gon' ride today?
I got a brand new spot, call it my hideaway
Bitch I might hide away
I put my spot away
I put a stash away
I put the Glock away
Bitch you could die today
So is you gon' ride today?
I got a brand new spot, call it my hideaway
Bitch I might hide away
I put my spot away
I put a stash away
I put the Glock away

However, he also acknowledges the transience of life, making it clear why he prioritizes genuine relationships with others. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, and he emphasizes the need to stay vigilant and protect oneself as he has put away his "spot," "stash," and even his "Glock."
