The group was previously known as Prophet Posse when it was signed to the Prophet Entertainment label in the mid 90's, but dropped the moniker after the group leaders, DJ Paul and Juicy J, formed their own label (Hypnotize Minds).

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hit the weed
Pass the dough
Mask'em face
Hide the yo
Ride on up
Not too fast
Point the guns
1st verse
I'm a North Memphis nigga
My nigga to my last days
And when I'm dead and I'm gone let the blunts blaze
See lifting weights in the pen got me toned up
But fuck the signs
If ya step I hold my chrome up
Don't give a fuck
'Bout them niggas that you hangin' wit'
I'm rollin' up
Let this tech start sangin' bitch
I never quit til' you violators take a nap
Pop in yo' car
Blew yo' brains in yo' potnah's lap
I know ya strapped
But you cowards like to play hard
But knowing that you don't want to catch
A murder charge
See niggas like to get full of dat weed and liquor
You snort a line in yo' mind
Now youse a killa
So pull the trigger so
We can let the dice roll
Dem hollow tips in yo' shit'll leave a nice hole
It's Project Pat on the track wit' the dope cookin'
And where I'm from
Grown men don't take no ass whoopins
Chorus-2x
2nd verse
Not only weak niggas like to start bullshitta
But in the street couple hollow points will hit ya
I'm watching out for you ones that are sheisty
I'm low on cheese so I might pull a heisty
I know you punk motherfuckers want to test me
Because yo' bitch like to bow down and bless me
Don't give a damn get yo' mama house shot up
And have her stiff like some crack that's been rocked
up
You fucked up and now you gotta pay the cost
Cause youse a hoe
And I'm the motherfucking boss
Automatic when I aim you say bye-bye
Yo' family sad you got killed in a drive-by
And to you ones that be talking all that yang,yang
What you gon' do
When that thang's in ya face man
It's Project Pat wit' that 12 gauge strapped ya'll
I blow yo' chest out yo' motherfucking back dawg
Chorus-4x

He describes how he doesn't care about the people his enemies hang out with and is willing to kill them too. He also mentions the effects of drugs and how they can turn someone into a killer.
In the second verse, Project Pat warns his enemies that they shouldn't test him and describes how he's watching out for them. He also describes how he's willing to commit robbery to make money and how he has no qualms about shooting someone's mother or family. Throughout the song, Project Pat's lyrics emphasize the use of guns and the importance of maintaining a tough image. The chorus is repeated four times and the song ends with Pat talking over the chorus.

My nigga to my last days

And when I'm dead and I'm gone let the blunts blaze
When I die, smoke marijuana in remembrance of me
See lifting weights in the pen got me toned up
Exercising in prison caused me to become muscular
But fuck the signs
Ignore the rules
If ya step I hold my chrome up
If you provoke me, I will brandish my gun
Don't give a fuck
I don't care
'Bout them niggas that you hangin' wit'
I don't care about the people you associate with

I am rolling a joint

I will not stop until my enemies are dead
Pop in yo' car

Men like to get high on marijuana and drunk on alcohol

So pull the trigger so
So shoot your gun
We can let the dice roll
We can leave it to chance
Dem hollow tips in yo' shit'll leave a nice hole
These hollow bullets will create a large wound
It's Project Pat on the track wit' the dope cookin'
Project Pat is the artist of the song and is involved in drug trafficking
And where I'm from
In the place where I live
Grown men don't take no ass whoopins
Adults don't tolerate being beaten up
Not only weak niggas like to start bullshitta
Not only weak men like to cause problems
But in the street couple hollow points will hit ya
But in the streets, you will get shot by hollow bullets
I'm watching out for you ones that are sheisty
I am wary of people who are dishonest and shady
I'm low on cheese so I might pull a heisty
I am low on money, so I may commit a robbery
I know you punk motherfuckers want to test me
I know you cowards want to challenge me
Because yo' bitch like to bow down and bless me
Because your girlfriend likes to show me respect
Don't give a damn get yo' mama house shot up
I don't care, I will shoot up your mother's house
And have her stiff like some crack that's been rocked up
And make her dead like hardened crack cocaine
You fucked up and now you gotta pay the cost
You made a mistake and now you must suffer the consequences
Cause youse a hoe
Because you are weak
And I'm the motherfucking boss
And I am in charge
Automatic when I aim you say bye-bye
I will kill you swiftly when I shoot
Yo' family sad you got killed in a drive-by
Your loved ones will feel grief when you get killed in a drive-by shooting
And to you ones that be talking all that yang,yang
And to the people who talk tough
What you gon' do
What are you going to do
When that thang's in ya face man
When my gun is pointed at you
It's Project Pat wit' that 12 gauge strapped ya'll
It is Project Pat with a shotgun, everyone
I blow yo' chest out yo' motherfucking back dawg
I will shoot you and create a large exit wound
