Jid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Her pussy bald with a tat like Stephon Marbury
Carry all my dirt to the grave, I'm the pallbearer
Bury all of my sins, staring out of the Benz
Gone off weed, gone off Hen', gone with the wind
Gone with the pretty long hair is with the fairest skin
Yelling in her face, and she repeat like a parrot and
Apparently she gone keep yelling at me, I'ma never win
Probably with another nigga, on another nigga dick
I'm on another tip, my skin so tint, strength on strength
One on ten against me
I won't break, I don't bend
Watch your statements, guard your chin
Guard your heart, guard your light
Find your zen, mind your lightness
You doing without 'cause you looking within
But if you ever in doubt give this a spin
Yeah for life, baby, I'm dressed for the war
Baby girl I'm your soldier
But trippin' like this, back and forth, wonder who gon' hold you
(Who's gon')
Everybody needs somebody to hold them down (somebody to hold them down)
(I said) Everybody needs somebody to hold them down
Uh, check, look, cool
I mean shawty had relations that we could never speak about
You get mad, I'm mad, we sleep it out
And then she had a man who used to beat her so she told me she wanted out
Got a couple abortions, now that pussy's a haunted house
Now her heart cold, Antarctica, Siberia
Had it planned out, curriculum, criteria
Change, she feel pain
Strain, built up anger
From dealing with a dickhead, putting her life in danger
I understand, it's times that you go through your women things
And sometimes can't gauge clearly on what you be thinking
I swear I got your back and got a tab on what you drinking
You ain't gotta move a finger or pinky when we linking
Whatever keeps your boat afloat or ship sinking from
Loose lips of side women stepping out of position
Breaking out of a system, prison
Parallelogram, shaping the prism
Stop signs never stopped I
Let's be realistic, I been trying to get in touch with my senses
And be better to my sisters
But niggas think that you feminine when you sensitive
My home girl rap, and she feminist
Hold it down for the women, I call her "Feminem"
Tell 'em how you really feel headass
'Cause ass shots and dead ass and fake tits been around, we gas it
Girl you perfect without that make up or the plastic surgery
I'ma tell you how it is like Ron Burgundy
Yeah for life, baby, I'm dressed for the war
Baby girl I'm your soldier
But trippin' like this, back and forth wonder who gon' hold you (who's gon')
Everybody needs somebody to hold them down (somebody to hold them down)
(I said) Everybody needs somebody to hold them down
The lyrics to JID feat. BJ The Chicago Kid's song Skrawberries is a song about relationships and the struggles encountered in them. The first verse talks about his partner's physical features, describing how her booty is soft and shaped like a strawberry, and how her genital area is bald and has a tattoo like Stephon Marbury. He talks about how both him and his partner have gone through difficult times but are still together - he carries all his dirt to the grave, and she has been with him despite sleeping on a couch and in a car. He acknowledges that there have been times when they fight, but they usually resolve it by talking it out. The second verse takes a different turn and talks about the struggles faced by women, particularly one who has gone through several hardships such as experiencing abuse in a previous relationship and having to get multiple abortions. The lyrics end with a call to support women and acknowledging their strength.
