Shit

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So you know it's all good when I come there
I hear you talking bout your city like you run that
And I brought my tour to your city
You my son now, nigga
But I had to come through for the Remix
Oh my, haven't done a verse in eight weeks, sh! t
And if a nigga say my name he the hot sh! t
Fucked up, lucky I don't feed them to the gossip
Niggas act like they don't know but they should know
I just thinks it's funny how they danggling the bait
But I'm the one that's killing niggas on the hook though
And niggas ain't got a grill, still Ice Grill haiting
I know ya'll ready, know MikeWillMadeIt
Just looking at the numbers, nigga I feel amazing
I call Michael Jordan and MikeWillMadeIt
I'm the young rap nigga with a melow deal
You need to come to OvO for a better deal
Just know a million ain't sh! t once you get a mil
And niggas say it's all good, that's how you better feel
Nigga nah, fuck that, this year I'm talkin big stuff
Rollin through the city like a young nigga bricked up
Fuck niggas gon' be fuck niggas
That's why we never gave a fuck when a Fuck Nigga switched up
The lyrics of the song Shit by FreeBandz are characterized by braggadocio and aggressive language, reflecting the rapper's status as a successful artist in the hip hop industry. The opening lines, "Took n****s out the hood like I'm from there / So you know it's all good when I come there," suggest that the rapper has made it out of the poverty and violence that often characterize certain neighborhoods, and that he has achieved a measure of success that allows him to move freely and confidently. The repetition of the phrase "I come there" reinforces this sense of power and control, as does the reference to the other rapper as the rapper's "son now," indicating a hierarchical relationship that implies mastery.
The next section of the song begins with the lines "But I had to come through for the Remix / Oh my, haven't done a verse in eight weeks, sh! t," which allude to the rapper's prolific output and popularity. He suggests that his appearance on a remix is a favor to other rappers and that his presence can add value to any song. He then asserts his dominance by claiming that anyone who mentions his name is doing themselves a favor, while he can mention other rappers' names without diminishing their value. The phrase "killing n****s on the hook though" further reinforces his superior status, as does the line "n****s ain't got a grill, still Ice Grill hating," which suggests that other rappers may be trying to appear tough or intimidating but are failing to do so convincingly.
The final lines of the song are perhaps the most negative and confrontational, as the rapper suggests that disloyalty and betrayal are common in the rap world, and that he and his associates have no problem "switching up" on those who aren't loyal. The repetition of the phrase "fuck n****s gon' be fuck n****s" emphasizes this point, suggesting that the artist is ruthless and uncompromising when it comes to his goals and ambition.
