From Dallas to Austin
Lil 2z Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From the D to the A, I ainβ²t talking 'bout Yachty
From Dallas to Austin, we got the bitch poppinβ²
I ain't talking 'bout The Beatles or no Rolling Stones
But a lot of these niggas they know how Iβ²m rocking
These niggas gone paste it right after they copy
Iβ²m out in L.A. smoking dope in the lobby
Can't do what I do β²cause you do it so sloppy
My niggas still whip 'til it hard like Jane
We do it for profit, we donβ²t do it for fame
Nigga tried to threaten me 'bout his sister and shit
Iβ²m stomping nigga brains in his head like Cain
Whole gang iced up, boy its cold as Alaska
I'm straight out of Texas, that's south of Nebraska
I never met daddy, that boy was a bastard
Finna roll up a β²wood and take of like NASA
How I cut bitches off you would think Iβ²m a barber
Give a fuck 'bout a Bentley, Iβ²m cool in my Charger
My bag still running (Skrrt), this bitch getting lost
Keep my shit off the web, bitch, I'm not Peter Parker
At first you want bottom, we turned to a starter
A whole lot of pints, tryna dunk on Vince Carter
We leave β²em for dead like a phone on the charger
Play 'round with the gang, bet he wonβ²t see tomorrow
I still made it out of this bitch full of hate
Steady getting to that check, I ain't got time to waste
I be rockin' this ice, but donβ²t know how to skate
He ainβ²t fuckin' with us, then he just canβ²t relate
This ain't Chick-fil-A but come place you an order
Lilβ² Quincho go dumb like he got a disorder
I don't post on the β²Gram but I still a record her
She give me that noggin' and then I extort her
At first it was Dicky but now its Versace
These Alexanders, these not no Huarches
Her heat talking stiff like he finna come drop me
We pull up with iron and get it hot like a Taki (Ayy)
The light always green, who the fuck finna stop me?
Got a four nick if a nigga too stalky
She drive the boat now she itchin' to top me
Ayy, she came to the crib tryna do some pilates
Stuff that cheese in my pockets, like they quesadillas
No new niggas, stay the fuck back, we donβ²t need them
My circle canβ²t get bigger than a tortilla
I'm mixing this Indica up with Sativa
At first it was bad then it got a little good
I still got some family stuck in the hood
Like my last name Knight, we gonβ² do 'em Suge
Better stay out the way or get rolled like a β²wood
We gon' do that boy bad and not say sorry
This ainβ²t for a camera, this ain't iCarly
Is you ready to ride like a bike or a Harley?
We gon' turn this bitch up like a show or a party
You could try if you want but it ainβ²t gone be easy
Just hit my lilβ² cousin if you need a peezy
They ain't gotta question, Iβ²m riding for sheezy
I keep a Kim K like Lil 2z was Yeezy (Baow)
In Lil 2z's song "From Dallas to Austin," he showcases his confidence and success as he rises to fame. He starts by asserting that his journey from the D (Dallas) to the A (Austin) is not a reference to rapper Lil Yachty but rather his own accomplishments. Lil 2z boasts about how his presence in both cities brings a buzz and gets people excited.
He then emphasizes that he is not comparing himself to legendary bands like The Beatles or The Rolling Stones, but many people are aware of his talent and unique style. Lil 2z doesn't shy away from calling out imitators who try to copy his style without giving credit. He mentions being in Los Angeles, smoking marijuana casually, and highlights that making money has become second nature to him.
Lil 2z dismisses others who attempt to replicate his success but fail because of their sloppy execution. He adds a menacing image of stomping someone's brains like the biblical character Cain.
Throughout the song, Lil 2z contrasts his own grind for wealth and profit with those who chase fame. He continues to assert his authenticity, representing Texas and specifically referencing areas south of Nebraska. Lil 2z reflects on not having a relationship with his father and takes on a carefree attitude, and getting high on marijuana leaves him feeling like he could take off like a NASA spaceship. He mockingly states that his ability to cut people off easily would make you think he's a barber.
Lil 2z switches gears in the second verse, finding success and leaving behind the hate that surrounds him. He focuses on his financial progress, making it clear that he's too busy to waste time. He embraces his flashy jewelry without actually knowing how to skate on ice. He asserts that those who can't relate or measure up to his success are irrelevant to him.
The references and metaphors continue, comparing getting served by Lil 2z to placing an order at Chick-fil-A and boasting about Lil Quincho's rap skills. Lil 2z reveals that he doesn't frequently post on Instagram but still records his encounters with women. He brags about extorting a woman after receiving oral sex from her.
Lil 2z concludes the song by referencing designer brands and the importance of staying true to himself. He mentions having money stuffed in his pockets and the loyalty of his inner circle. He compares mixing different strains of marijuana to the ups and downs of life. The song ends with Lil 2z asserting that he will continue to prevail without any apologies, challenging anyone who tries to stand in his way.
