Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Two hands in the air, if he don't really care
It's like that sometimes, I mean ridiculous
It's like that sometimes, the shit ridiculous
One hand in the air, if he don't really care
Middle Finger in the air, if you don't really care
It's like that sometimes man ridiculous
I'm so appalled Spalding ball,
Baldin' Donald Trump, takin' dollars from y'all
Baby your fired, your girlfriend hired
But if you don't mind I'ma keep you on call
We above the law, we don't give a fuck bout y'all
I got dogs that'll chew a fuckin' whole through the wall
But since they all lovers, I need more rubbers
And if I don't use rubbers, need more covers
Housekeeping, I mean goddamn
One time, let it be a bad bitch sweepin'
That know we get O's like cheerios
That know because they seen us in the videos
That know the day that you play me
Will be the same day M.T.V. play videos
That was a little joke, voila
Praises due to the most high Allah
Praises due to the most fly Prada
Baby I'm magic ta-da
Address me as your highness, high as united
Thirty thousand feet up and you are not invited
Niggas be writin' bullshit like they gotta work
Niggas is goin' through real shit man they outta work
That's why another goddamn dance track gotta hurt
That's why I rather spit somethin' that gotta purp'
Champagne wishes, thirty white bitches
I mean the shit is fuckin' ridiculous, fuckin' ridiculous
I mean the shit is fuckin' ridiculous
Five star dishes, different exotic fishes
Man this shit if fuckin' ridiculous, fuckin' ridiculous
How should I begin this, I'm just so offended
How am I even mentioned by all these fuckin' beginners?
I'm so appalled, I might buy the mall
Just to show niggas how much more I have in store
I'm fresher than you all, so I don't have to pause
All of y'all can suck my balls through my draws
Dark knight feelin', die you be a hero
Or live long enough to see yourself become a villain
I went from the favorite, to the most hated
But would you rather be underpaid or overrated?
Moral victories is for minor league coaches
And 'ye already told you we major you cockroaches
Show me where the boats is, Ferrari Testarossas
The hammer went and broke so you know I'm more focused
I lost thirty mill so spent another thirty
Cause unlike hammer thirty million can't hurt me
Fucking insane, the fuck am I saying
Not only am I fly, I'm fucking not playin'
All these little bitches, too big for their britches
Burning their little bridges, fucking ridiculous
Champagne wishes, thirty white bitches
I mean the shit is fuckin' ridiculous, fuckin' ridiculous
I mean the shit is fuckin' ridiculous
Five star dishes, different exotic fishes
Man this shit is fuckin' ridiculous, fuckin' ridiculous
Success is what you make it
Take it how it come
A half a mill in twenties like a billion where I'm from
An arrogant drug dealer the legend I've become
C.N.N. said I'd be dead by twenty one
Blackjack I just pulled in Aces
You looking at the king in his face
Everything I dream motherfuckers I'm watchin' it take shape
While to you I'm just the young rich nigga that lacks faith
Range Rove leather roof, love war fuck a truce
Still move a bird like I'm in bed with mother goose
Them hoes comin' in a baker's dozen
Claiming they was wit' me when they know they really wasn't
I keep the city's best never said she was the brightest
So if you had her too it don't effect me in the slightest
I never met a bitch that didn't need a little guidance
So I dismiss her past until she disappoints your highness
I speak the gospel, hostile
Tony doing time for what he did to nostrils
Paranoid mind I'm still under the watchful
Eye of the law, aspire for more
Those kilo's came we give you bobby brown jaw
Flaws ain't flaws when it's you that makes the call
Flow similar to the legends of the falls
Spillin' I own you all, yeughck!
One hand in the air, if he don't really care
Two hands in the air, if he don't really care
It's like that sometimes, I mean ridiculous
It's like that sometimes, the shit ridiculous
One hand in the air, if he don't really care
Middle Finger in the air, if you don't really care
It's like that sometimes man ridiculous
Life can be sometimes ridiculous, huh!
Huh, I am so outrageous
I wear my pride on my sleeve like a bracelet
If god had an Ipod I'd be on his playlist
My phrases amazing, the faces and places the favorite
My cup over runeth with hundreths
Dummy damn its hard not for me to waste it
The new commandment
Though should not hate kid
My movement is like the Civil Rights I'm Ralph David
Abernathy, so call my lady Rosa Parks
I ain't nothing like those niggas baby those are marks
I met this girl on valentines day
Fucked her in May, she found out about April
So she chose to March, Ha
Damn another broken heart
I keep bitches by them two's nigga, Noah's ark
I got a seven on me
I call my dro' Lamar
Plus a Trojan in my pocket, Matt Leinart
G-A-T in the path finder
Cause you haters got P.H.D's
Y'all just some major haters and some math minors
Tiger woods don't make me grab iron
Champagne wishes and thirty white bitches
You know this shit is fuckin' ridiculous, fuckin' ridiculous
You know this shit is fuckin' ridiculous
Calls from the Mrs.
Infers from the mistress
You know that shit is fuckin' ridiculous, fuckin' ridiculous
You know this shit is fuckin' ridiculous
Fuckin' ridiculous, fuckin' ridiculous
Fuckin' ridiculous, fuckin' ridiculous
One hand in the air, if he don't really care
Two hands in the air, if he don't really care
It's like that sometimes, I mean ridiculous
It's like that sometimes, the shit ridiculous
One hand in the air, if he don't really care
Middle Finger in the air, if you don't really care
It's like that sometimes man ridiculous
Life can be sometimes ridiculous, huh!
The lyrics to Kanye West/Jay Z/CyHi Da Prynce/Swizz Beatz's song "So Appalled" highlight the idea that life can be ridiculous and outrageous at times. The chorus of this song begins by describing someone who doesn't really care, to the point where they either have one or two hands in the air or even give a middle finger. The song then goes on to touch on a number of topics, including an array of different luxury items, such as a Spalding ball, champagne, exotic fish dishes, and a leather roof on a Range Rover. There are also lines that reference Donald Trump, "The Apprentice," and how someone's girlfriend was hired to replace them. In the second verse, the lyrics touch on themes such as death, becoming a villain, and how moral victories are for minor league coaches. The bridge of the song adds another layer of absurdity, describing an Ipod playlist that God might have and how the singer would be included in it. All in all, the lyrics are a commentary on the wealthy and famous, showcasing how money and power can create a disconnected worldview.
