Lil Tecca Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Yeah (Menoh)
Look at the watch, tick-tock
I can't waste no time no more
Time is money, so just look at the clock
Movin' fast when I come with the Glock
I don't need no stock no more
Comin' different with the drip, yeah
It don't rain or shade, it pour
I bought a new watch to fuck it up
If he wants the smoke, fuck 'em up
If you want some smoke, blunt it up
I'm chasin' the bag, come run with us
She stay with the gang, she fuck with us
If you need some Wock', go plug 'em up
That shawty a thot, come fuck or somethin'
You don't want no beef, you ain't dumb enough
I bought a new watch to fuck it up
If he wants the smoke, fuck 'em up
If you want some smoke, blunt it up
I'm chasin' the bag, come run with us
She stay with the gang, she fuck with us
If you need some Wock', go plug 'em up
That shawty a thot, come fuck or somethin'
You don't want no beef, you ain't dumb enough
You don't want no beef, you ain't dumb enough
Think about what you doin'
I got a dream, nigga, I'm pursuing
I got a dream, nigga, for this music
You had a chance, nigga, and you blew it
She in my pants, nigga, and she blew it
Fuck all the talkin', Nike, I'ma do it (yeah)
Money is time, nigga, and it's proven
Fuck all of jakes (jakes)
All up in that grass, in that grass with them snakes
He want some smoke, want some smoke, he get baked
I got these hoes, got these hoes in my face, yeah
Look at the watch, tick-tock
I can't waste no time no more
Time is money, so just look at the clock
But that shit don't tock no more
Movin' fast when I come with the Glock
I don't need no stock no more
Comin' different with the drip, yeah
It don't rain or shade, it pour
I bought a new watch to fuck it up
If he wants the smoke, fuck 'em up
If you want some smoke, blunt it up
I'm chasin' the bag, come run with us
She stay with the gang, she fuck with us
If you need some Wock', go plug 'em up

In "Tic Toc," Lil Tecca is all about efficiency - he's always aware of the minutes and seconds that are passing, and he's determined not to waste a single one of them. To emphasize how seriously he takes the value of time, he compares it to money. Just like you can't afford to throw away cash, you can't afford to let time slip through your fingers either. However, Tecca recognizes that not everyone has the same respect for time as he does. He's surrounded by people who talk a good game but rarely follow through on their promises, and he's got no patience for them. This is why he's always on guard, moving with the Glock and ready to stand up to anyone who dares to cross him. He's not intimidated by anyone, and he's not afraid to get his hands dirty if that's what it takes.
In the second verse, Lil Tecca takes a more introspective approach to his music. He knows that he's got a talent that he needs to nurture and develop if he wants to succeed. He's dedicated to his craft, and he's putting his all into it. But at the same time, he's also aware that there are plenty of people out there who would love to see him fail. There are snakes in the grass, waiting to pounce at the first sign of weakness. Tecca knows that he needs to be vigilant if he wants to protect himself and his music from these predators. Ultimately, though, he's confident in his talent and his ability to make it big. He's coming up, and he's not going to let anyone stand in his way.
