Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, niggas, it's 'bout that time
Drama time, nigga, the alarm going off, nigga
It's time, nigga, put on your boots, nigga
Soldier hats, nigga, bulletproof vests nigga
Arm yourself, nigga, arm yourself, nigga

Y'all niggas got a problem
My niggas got Bazookas
My niggas will solve ya
My niggas are doctors
My niggas will cut ya
My niggas will chop ya
My niggas will hunt ya
Until the day we find ya

Shout outs to my real niggas
Fuck all you bitch niggas
I'm down with Little Haiti
OG boss niggas
I move with dirty niggas
No clean Uzi nigga
My team makes movies nigga
Shoot off that baby nigga
One Love to my dead niggas
Old school G-Up niggas
Federal and State Prison
Come home – we miss you, nigga
Hydro blowin' niggas
Up the wall, flippin' niggas
Back and forth taxin' niggas
For the rock
We kill them niggas
Break the block
To feed 'em niggas
Burn yo' block
You keep it, nigga
That's the end, fini nigga
My next move
The next hood, nigga
I'm a problem
Can't you tell?
Ringing bells?
Don't end it nigga
Dumping shells
I'm in it nigga
Fuck the love
We hangin' niggas

Y'all niggas got a problem
My niggas got Bazookas
My niggas will solve ya
My niggas are doctors
My niggas will cut ya
My niggas will chop ya
My niggas will hunt ya
Until the day we find ya

Y'all niggas got a problem
My niggas got Bazookas
My niggas will solve ya
My niggas are doctors
My niggas will cut ya
My niggas will chop ya
My niggas will hunt ya
Until the day we find ya

You keep on thinkin' shit is sweet
Until you end up six feet
Me I'm grinding, life ain't cheap
Soul food, I gotta eat
My deck or drive shows
Niggas shootin' sideways
Bitches suckin' fat dicks
Haitians movin' white bricks
My money all dirty
Bloody like the White Sox
Bite you in yo' asshole
Eat you like a bull shark
Duck for my fast ball
I pitch high, Lincecum
Strikin' out, who's next to come?
Tryna hit, they fucking dumb
Me I'm Tiger, hole-in-one
White bitches drink my cum
Black bitches love my inches
Say they wanna have my son
Zoe nigga from the slum
Dick game, stupid dumb
Copycats: they get hung
Fully automatic drums

Y'all niggas got a problem
My niggas got Bazookas
My niggas will solve ya
My niggas are doctors
My niggas will cut ya
My niggas will chop ya
My niggas will hunt ya
Until the day we find ya

Y'all niggas got a problem
My niggas got Bazookas
My niggas will solve ya
My niggas are doctors
My niggas will cut ya
My niggas will chop ya




My niggas will hunt ya
Until the day we find ya
