Waste
Jazz Cartier Lyrics

Why you niggas movin' waste?
Asking why others are wasting their potential and not making the most of their opportunities.

Waste, waste, waste, waste, waste
Repeating the word waste to emphasize the abundance of wasted opportunities.

I'm never out of line and I'm never out of place
Asserting how he always knows his position and never steps out of it.

Place, place, place, place, place
Repeating the word place to establish its significance in maintaining order.

But everywhere I go I see you niggas movin' waste
Observing how many others around him are wasting their potential.

You see me gettin' money now you niggas feel a way
Noticing how others may be envious of his success.

Way, way, way, way, way
Repeating the word way to emphasize the extent of the feeling of envy.

If there's a problem come and say it to my face
Encouraging direct communication instead of gossip or indirect confrontation.

Never in the gym, a skinny nigga movin' weight
Confessing to not working out but still metaphorically moving weight (being successful).

Head was amazin' so I had to call her Grace

I'm lappin' every nigga, every nigga in the race
Boasting that he is outrunning and surpassing all others in his field.

Celebrating his own success but acknowledging that he has to keep up the hard work to maintain it.

Lantz turned it up, you know I got to feel the base
Giving credit to his producer Lantz for their successful collaboration.

I'm always in the kitchen servin' niggas with the plates

And my girl's over Tiffany, it's only Cartier

I ain't pickin' up my line, I ain't dealin' with no fakes

If you ask me how I'm doin' I'mma say I'm doin' great
