Y
Hr. Skæg Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There for life, there for life
12AM in Atlanta
And it's DJ Drama
Call me Dram F Kennedy, mixtape president!

I spent 10 bands, and that's just at Neiman's
I was broke as fuck, but still the cleanest
I wasn't gettin' money, barely eatin'
You say you love me, then you better mean it
They locked my dawg up, he got double digits
When I was Rizzy they wasn't fuckin' with it
But now I'm bossed up, now I'm big dawg
And from the heart, I do forgive y'all

Just get your money, mind your business
And keep it real with your niggas, man
Show your dawgs how to get it
Never turned my back, was always with it
Smokin' cookie, gettin' lifted
Seems like my niggas shifted, man
For the money, they'll burn you
I ain't trippin', I'm a learner, man

Pray to God and pay my dues
I ain't ever tryna lose, yeah
I spent $1200 on my shoes
Just for them to be like, "Ooh", yeah
Look, I'm dressed in Valentino
Tell the waiter I need singles
You'll never find me lonely
Drive the 'Rari like a pony
On the island dressed in Stoney, damn
You can't fuck me 'til you dome me, damn

Just get your money, mind your business
And keep it real with your niggas, man
Show your dawgs how to get it
Never turned my back, was always with it
Smokin' cookie, gettin' lifted
Seems like my niggas shifted, man




For the money, they'll burn you
I ain't trippin', I'm a learner, man

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Hr. Skæg's song Y are about money, loyalty, and forgiveness. The song opens with the artist saying he will be there for life, and then launches into a narrative about how he spent $10,000 at Neiman's, even when he was broke. He talks about how his friends were not interested in his music when he was starting out, but now he has risen to become a boss. The chorus encourages listeners to focus on making money, minding their own business, and staying true to their friends.


The second verse continues this theme of loyalty, with Hr. Skæg saying he never turned his back on anyone who was there for him. He speaks about how his friends’ priorities have changed, and they are more interested in money now than in spending time together. He warns that money can make people do things they wouldn’t normally do, but he does not let it affect him. The song ends with Hr. Skæg talking about his expensive clothes and cars, but he is not interested in using them to show off.
