All Dogs
Isaiah Flowers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sad boys on a trip and shit just made me colder
Dogs tag round my neck but I ain't no soldier
Different breed same heart but still never loved us
Still got it tho
All my dogs go to heaven
And you got it real good girl this just like heaven
And it's up to yourself to find your way in life
Let records out
We ain't got no chance but we still come around
We ain't got no chance but we still come around
We just want a chance trying to find our own sound
We just want a chance we just wanna be found
This that valley sound everlasting
Super sonic got the bass booming in the caddy
Neighbors start complaining cause we out here steady wilding
And I don't need you for advice you talk down on me
And I
And I know this ain't forever
Yeah this life shit whatever
And now I see what's I see I do me
Fuck your team Fuck your a-list identity ah
Been on a mission send the transmission uh
Blank faces all stares they never listen uh
Realistic keep my distances from y'all bots out here
Trustworthy brotherly I got my dogs out here
Been hard to find and know what's the damn truth
Who am I to judge when I don't know you
I just move along and do my own thing
All my dogs Rest In Peace and that's on gang
Fuck what you say I'm too game in the cut
Fuck your feelings fuck your luck
Too much baggage in your trunk
Fuck
Fuck what you say I'm too game in the cut
Fuck your feelings fuck your luck
Too much baggage in your trunk
Want some ice on my teeth
Double C's in here too
That's Chanel not Prada boo
And we geeking off the boof
Right now right now
Said I need it right now
If the feeling wasn't there then it's never been found
I don't want more trouble
What they gotta say
We just hungry in the streets
And that's on gang
And that's on gang
And that's on gang
I don't want more trouble
What they gotta say
We just hungry in the streets
And that's on gang
And that's on gang
And that's on gang
The song "All Dogs" by Isaiah Flowers is a reflective take on his life and struggles. The opening lyrics "All my dogs go to heaven" could mean that his companions and friends (aka his "dogs") are no longer with him, or it could be a metaphor for the struggles he's faced in his life, and how he's emerged stronger from them. The next few lines "Sad boys on a trip and shit just made me colder" seem to suggest that his experiences have hardened him emotionally. It's also worth noting that the use of "sad boys" is a term often used in hip-hop to describe an emotional and introspective subgenre within the larger hip-hop genre.
The song also touches on identity and belonging. The line "Different breed same heart but still never loved us" could be interpreted as a commentary on how society often ostracizes those who are different and how identity is a complex and nuanced issue. The chorus "We just want a chance trying to find our own sound...And now I see what's I see I do me" is a rallying cry for those who feel like outsiders.
The song also delves into issues of authenticity and speaking one's truth. The line "Been hard to find and know what's the damn truth" highlights how difficult it is to navigate a world where so much is fake and contrived. The lines "Fuck your team Fuck your a-list identity" suggest that Flowers is not interested in conforming to societal norms and is doing his own thing. Overall, "All Dogs" is a deeply introspective song that touches on a range of emotions and issues.

Been hard to find and know what's the damn truth
It has been challenging to separate reality from fiction and to determine what is really happening

I honor and respect my deceased loved ones, and this is a commitment I make to my friends and supporters
Fuck what you say I'm too game in the cut
I am confident and unperturbed by negative comments or criticism
Fuck your feelings fuck your luck
I dismiss and disregard your emotions and wish you no success or fortune
Too much baggage in your trunk
You have too many issues and complications that make it difficult to move forward
Want some ice on my teeth
I desire to have some expensive and flashy jewelry on my teeth
Double C's in here too
I have a luxury brand (Chanel) prominently featured in my appearance
That's Chanel not Prada boo
I am correcting a potential misunderstanding about my fashion choices
And we geeking off the boof
We are indulging in marijuana and enjoying its effects
Said I need it right now
I am stating my immediate desire for something
If the feeling wasn't there then it's never been found
If I have not experienced a certain emotion before, then it likely does not exist
We just hungry in the streets
We are eager to achieve success and improve our lives
And that's on gang
And I am committed to this effort, no matter what
