Stepping Out
Jay Worthy feat. $Ha Hef Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who else can be? It'sβ
Want nothin' more, to shake it
And when the breaks ain't breakin'
That's when the feelin' takes me
Steppin' out, Red Cortez, I'm out the house
Hear Crimsaw and take that motherfucker down
Bangin' oldies smokin' dope, he turn the hood up proud
By my lonely, I can't even trust the homies
They a have you in a twist, don't you know them niggas phony
'Cept my niggas from the jump, circle smaller than a Rollie
Face glistenin' on my wrist, thought they told you life's a bitch
All gorillas in my clique, all my niggas looking rich
But we done came from the times, didn't have a pot to piss
Now I pull up in that 6, couple homies off the mix
Tall drank serve on, maybe yelling that's it
Step into the function tryna knock a nigga bitch
Ready to take some chances
Steady no backward dances
Shine off my shoes for dancing
Saying goodbye to Mrβ
In the kitchen two-steppin' with the twelve gauge
I kept me two weapons since the twelfth grade
In n' out the church, but was hell-raised
Bullets burn like hell when the shells graze
Fly whoopin', all white five coopin'
Four five forty yet the five guys slide through it
Black nine match the black nine fives, how shootin'
Five five nine hoes clockin' ask me how I do it
Really limpin', I been turnin' bitches since Helly Hansens
Diamonds in the ring been hittin', look like they belly dancin'
Naw, I ain't felt the same coke drought
Baggin' sips up in the smoke house
I'm tryna turn this smoke into a boat house
All that dope, I could prolly turn the pope out
Ready to take some chances
Steady no backward dances
Shine off my shoes for dancing
Saying goodbye to Mrβ

Steppin'
Moving forward, advancing towards something better
Who else can be? It'sβ
No one else but me, I have to take charge of my own life
Want nothin' more, to shake it
Desire nothing more than to overcome challenges
And when the breaks ain't breakin'
And when things aren't going my way
That's when the feelin' takes me
That's when I'm motivated to work harder and succeed
Steppin' out, Red Cortez, I'm out the house
Moving forward, leaving my comfort zone and facing the world
Double-click and lock the window, know what I'm about
Securing my surroundings and staying focused on my goals
Hear Crimsaw and take that motherfucker down
Overcoming obstacles and defeating opposition
Bangin' oldies smokin' dope, he turn the hood up proud
Celebrating my success and enjoying the fruits of my labor
By my lonely, I can't even trust the homies
Being careful of who to trust, as betrayal can come from close friends
They a have you in a twist, don't you know them niggas phony
Dealing with fake people who act friendly but are untrustworthy
'Cept my niggas from the jump, circle smaller than a Rollie
Trusting only those who have been with me from the start, and keeping a small inner circle
Face glistenin' on my wrist, thought they told you life's a bitch
Showing off my wealth and success as a way to prove people who doubted me wrong
All gorillas in my clique, all my niggas looking rich
My crew is all strong and successful, and we enjoy flaunting it
But we done came from the times, didn't have a pot to piss
Remembering where we came from and how far we've come
Now I pull up in that 6, couple homies off the mix
Displaying my success through my fancy car and the company of my successful friends
Tall drank serve on, maybe yelling that's it
Enjoying life and having fun with my crew, possibly getting loud and rowdy
Step into the function tryna knock a nigga bitch
Going out to have a good time and potentially hooking up with someone's significant other
Ready to take some chances
Prepared to take risks in order to grow and succeed
Steady no backward dances
Moving forward steadily without hesitation or doubts
Shine off my shoes for dancing
Presenting myself well and showing off my success as I enjoy myself
Saying goodbye to Mrβ
Leaving behind old struggles and pains as I move forward towards new successes
In the kitchen two-steppin' with the twelve gauge
Dancing with my gun ready by my side in case of trouble
I kept me two weapons since the twelfth grade
Being prepared and having a weapon since I was young
In n' out the church, but was hell-raised
Despite a religious upbringing, my surroundings were tumultuous and led me towards a rougher path
Bullets burn like hell when the shells graze
Violence can be brutal and painful, even if it misses its target
Fly whoopin', all white five coopin'
Showing off my flashy, high-end car
Four five forty yet the five guys slide through it
My group of five men move as one unit, despite any obstacles
Black nine match the black nine fives, how shootin'
My matching gun and car show off my style, even in dangerous situations
Five five nine hoes clockin' ask me how I do it
Women are attracted to my success and style, and want to be a part of it
Really limpin', I been turnin' bitches since Helly Hansens
I've been successful in attracting women, even from a young age
Diamonds in the ring been hittin', look like they belly dancin'
My wealth and jewelry are so flashy that they catch people's attention and shine brightly
Naw, I ain't felt the same coke drought
I haven't experienced the same hardships and struggles I once did
Baggin' sips up in the smoke house
Prepping drugs in a place of my own
I'm tryna turn this smoke into a boat house
Working to turn my struggles into new opportunities and successes
All that dope, I could prolly turn the pope out
My drug selling business is so successful, I could even sell to the Pope
