rollin'
II-J Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Where'd you get all them store bought 'n clothes, Sarah
Laura gave 'em to me
She did
She's awful nice, Amos
Shh! My name ain't Amos
Tis to
T'aint nuther, not no more
Then what is it
I'm just rolling, vibing, Malibu driving
Going down the roads at high speeds, flying
I'm just rolling
Vibing
Aye
Used to give a fuck about getting my dick sucked
Now, I'm just looking for a little bit of good luck
Lately, I've been feeling real stuck
People say "I feel you", bitch no you don't
I'm just being real, yeah
I miss my drug dealer
But he left for Christian college,
Getting real knowledge
So, his streetness been abolished
I just stay polished, aye
Looking like a million bucks
In this Walmart fit, I just purchased for fucks
I keep my teeth brushed
Bitches wanna see us
People wanna be us
They deny it but they know
They need us
In God, We Trust
Only problem is, I don't think He trusts us
But you can't blame Him
We're more focused on busting a nut
Than putting good food in our gut
And getting our eyes shut
I'm spitting bars so random
My brain's in tandem
Going two places at once
I calm it down by smoking blunts
And eating hamburgers with ketchup from Hunts
I just chill with my homies
Smoke weed and relax
We don't take more than we need
We aren't controlled by greed
We're just tryna lead by example
We know sometimes we can be a handful
But we feel
We've got it handled
We just stay rolling
Vibing
Chevy Malibu driving
Rolling, rolling, rolling
Vibing, vibing, vibing
We stay rolling, vibing
Malibu driving
Going down the roads at high speeds, flying
We stay rolling
Vibing
Aye
I need constant distraction
Sometimes I'm loud just to get a reaction
I'm all about action
For a fraction of the day
All the rest of it I just waste away
No work, all play
Media leading me astray
But, I wouldn't have it any other way
I got goals and dreams, only problem is
I got low self esteem
Plus
I'm still just a teen
When I play basketball, I get mean
Not a fan of ice cream
Used to be but now I think it just tastes shitty
Hopefully, I stay healthy and lean, ooh
And keep my room clean
And make it wealthy
But for now
I stay rolling, vibing, Malibu driving
Going down the roads at high speeds, flying
I'm just rolling
Vibing
I'm just rolling, vibing, Malibu driving
Going down the roads at high speeds, flying
I'm just rolling
(Living life, dying)
Vibing
(But slowly, bitch)
We just stay rolling vibing, Chevy Malibu driving, yeah
Going down the roads at high speeds, flying
Rolling, vibing
(Chevy Malibu, yeah)
We just stay rolling vibing, Chevy Malibu driving, yeah
Going down the roads at high speeds, flying, flying
Flying, flying
I'm just rolling, vibing, Malibu driving
Going down the roads at high speeds, flying
I'm just rolling, vibing
Ooh, I need distraction
I'm just rolling, vibing, Chevy Malibu driving
Going down the roads at high speeds, flying




Flying

And make it wealthy
Hoping to become wealthy in the future


But for now
Currently


I'm just rolling, vibing, Malibu driving
Driving around and enjoying the scenery


I need distraction
Needing entertainment to avoid boredom


Living life, dying
Experiencing life and nearing death


But slowly, bitch
Realizing life moves slowly


Chevy Malibu driving
Driving a Chevy Malibu


We just stay rolling vibing, Chevy Malibu driving, yeah
Continuing to drive and enjoy life


Flying
Driving fast
