Full Circle
Foxy Brown Lyrics

(Hit-Boy)
Acknowledging the producer of the song

(G. Ry got me)
Giving credit to the audio engineer who assisted

Ayo, Hit-Boy, man
Addressing Hit-Boy with familiarity and respect

I need to roll up some of that fronto you got, man
Asking Hit-Boy for some of the specific type of marijuana he has

I be seeing you smoking
Observing that Hit-Boy smokes

Yo, how that I.E. weather?
Inquiring about the weather in the Inland Empire region

Uh
A signaling sound to indicate the start of the song

Tilted brim like Goldie talking
Comparing the style of wearing a hat to that of a character named Goldie

Pryor listening, my prior women had no remorse
Indicating that Foxy Brown's previous romantic partners showed no regret

When they tried to end on no discourse, no discussion
Explaining that the relationships ended abruptly without any communication or discussion

I'm all alone and all the people with the big hats on went home
Feeling isolated while others have moved on

So what you gon' do now, Goldie? Your bottom left you
Questioning what Foxy Brown will do after being left by her partner

It's up to me and you, Goldie, through introspection
Recognizing that Foxy Brown needs to reflect on herself for guidance

You ain't Goldie, you Nas, and my heart ain't cold as it was
Acknowledging a change in Foxy Brown's character and emotional state

And I go through multiple love triangles over and over enough
Experiencing repeated situations involving complex romantic relationships

I talk to my boxing trainer, he's my logic explainer
Referring to a boxing trainer as a source of logical advice

Conversations through our combination
Having discussions while training together

He told me, 'Stick and move,' and 'Different rules apply to different women'
Giving advice to Foxy Brown about adapting her approach to different women

Some women's into licking women
Acknowledging that some women are interested in same-sex relationships

Some women's independent, some women want brothers who educated
Highlighting the diverse preferences of women, ranging from independence to desiring educated partners

Some women want Benz's, leather seats that are perforated
Describing women who desire luxury items and features in a car

Some do malevolent snake shit
Referring to women who engage in deceitful or harmful behavior

Yeah, you can miss me with that fake shit (peace, king)
Rejecting insincere behavior and expressing peace to the listener

Dialogue superb, flyest cars on the curb, word
Describing engaging conversations and impressive cars

When I evolved, a higher God emerged reserved
Realizing personal growth and spiritual development

More subtle, come from the stress and the struggle
Becoming calmer and wiser through challenging experiences

Young then, obsessed in the bubble about it
When younger, being fixated on certain things

Took advantage if a woman allowed it
Exploiting women if given the opportunity

One of the foulest, some would say I was childish, money driven
Recognizing criticism of being immature and focused on financial gain

Mischievous, I perceived it as livin', gifts and ribbons
Viewing misbehavior as a way of enjoying life, receiving rewards and presents

Any kisses on the lips was forbidden, I was on it
Considering it prohibited to show affection and taking satisfaction in breaking that rule

She curvy, then shorty was cornered, no worries
Feeling in control and unconcerned if an attractive woman was interested

For the naughty, it was higher performance, or was it really?
Questioning whether engaging in risky behavior truly brought greater satisfaction

The games that I was playin' was silly
Realizing that the manipulative games were foolish

Similar to them days when I was packin' that milly, it could've killed me
Drawing a comparison to the dangerous days of carrying a firearm

Caution never crossing my mind, she calling crying
Not being cautious, leading to a woman contacting in distress

Me, I'm more concerned why she ain't falling in line, was buggin'
Focusing on why the woman isn't conforming to expectations and feeling bothered by it

Grew a lot since they said I was stubborn
Showing personal growth since being labeled as stubborn

Guess it's real, even players need lovin'
Recognizing that even those who engage in promiscuity desire love

When you enamored by female companions, there's no standards
Explaining that infatuation with women can lead to the absence of personal standards

Once you hit and it switch the dynamics, that's the damage
Explaining that once a sexual encounter occurs, the nature of the relationship changes and can be harmful

Reflecting on first impressions, what's she expecting?
Considering the impact of initial meetings and what the woman may anticipate

Why when men don't follow directions, it's deception?
Questioning why men are seen as deceitful when they deviate from expected behavior

I was intrigued by fine women, I realized
Expressing attraction to attractive women and recognizing this realization

Some were drop dead gorgeous living a lie
Noticing that some stunning women were leading deceptive lives

Oblivious to beauty inside truly defines
Unaware of the inner beauty that truly matters

Will you walk with me or are you there for the ride?
Questioning if someone will support Foxy Brown or only be present for self-interest

For better or worse, every blessing and curse
Acknowledging the ups and downs of relationships

Understand exotic sands come after the dirt
Recognizing that beautiful experiences come after overcoming hardships

I was dealing since adolescent
Engaging in romantic relationships since a young age

Thinking my girl was my possession
Believing that the partner belonged to Foxy Brown

I stand corrected
Admitting to being wrong

It takes understanding and affection
Recognizing the importance of empathy and love in relationships

Time is money, I need growth for my investment
Valuing personal development and growth as a valuable use of time

I don't like attention unless it's a woman
Preferring attention from women over others

With majestic grace like an empress in Essence
Describing the ideal woman with elegance and beauty

Let's just chill, catch vibes in the grill
Suggesting to relax and enjoy each other's company

Celebratin', many of us never made it (haha)
Expressing gratitude for being alive when many others didn't make it

Whatever brings you down won't elevate you (uh)
Asserting that negative influences won't uplift one's life

Like a real one beside you is very gracious
Appreciating the presence of a genuine and supportive person

I'll Na Na top five, nigga, dead or alive
Referring to herself as a top-ranking rapper

Nigga or bitch, Firm mafioso shit
Elevating the collective identity of Firm and embracing a mafia-like mentality

Ayo, Esco, name a bitch fuckin' with me
Challenging Nas (Esco) to name a female rapper who can compete with Foxy Brown

Did a bullet, came home, Brooklyn gave me the key
Surviving a dangerous situation and being recognized with respect in her hometown

No cap though, facts though, nigga, that's really rap, though
Asserting the truth and authenticity of her statements without exaggeration

Like really though, my nigga, she really back though
Emphasizing her return and presence in the music industry

In my lowski lotion, nigga
Being in a relaxed state of mind

Got my wooskies locin', nigga
Having her crew ready and prepared

Comme de Garçons loafers on my posters, Firm la familia
Referencing the brand of shoes she wears and expressing loyalty to the Firm collective

First lady, nigga, Bonnie for real
Referring to herself as the first lady and representing loyalty like Bonnie in the infamous Bonnie and Clyde duo

Pussy power like Tasha pushed Tommy to kill, uh
Displaying the influence and control she possesses like a character Tasha from the TV show Power

Black Sheba, Philipp Plein on a sneaker
Associating herself with empowerment and luxury brands

Lowering the two-seater, bitch, I spits ether
Driving a sports car and confidently delivering powerful verses

Offering greetings and respect

Having her close comrades with her and suggesting women be honest and straightforward

Confirming that Hit-Boy understands the context and significance of the situation

Showing confidence in her skill and expertise without other options

Confirming the timeless quality of her work

Feeling powerful and unstoppable

Stretch marks from this art, gave birth to this
Acknowledging the challenges and sacrifices made in pursuing her art

And I stand by every word of this
Emphasizing the conviction and belief in her lyrics

Claiming to have the same impact as Malcolm X and asserting dominance by shutting down critics

Yeah
Showing agreement or affirmation
