I came back around,
I came back around
The Carter motherfucker
Its the Carter man
Right now we still in the kitchen man
You checking out them bitches booties right (I know)
Yea, but lets move on man,
Plenty mo' Carter to give you
You know, let's go man
Now let me show you upstairs
Got the glass house floor to let me know who up there
Look down and you see your reflection
You ain't gotta know who down here
You just know you protected
Hey man, how I don't know you connected
Here's a little morphine let me see you inject it
That's right little whodi respect this
Understand me or get 'cha mammy a death wish
Part one, part two, part three
All the parts of "Godfather" all a part of me
If you, look to the wall ya' see
A few, gagged up, tied up scared pricks
Got 'em, facing the wall like they was on "Blair Witch"
I ain't, chasin' at all but it get scary 'bout my chips (yeah)
And in here is where I keep the bricks
Acknowledge lil' marley in the hallway
He got the clips

This my lil' dude marley man
He hold me down, know what I'm talking 'bout
I'll show you the rest of the house later man
You wait right here, I be back

In "Inside," Lil Wayne gives the listeners a grand tour of his house, which he refers to as "The Carter." The opening lines of the song establish that Wayne has been away for a while, but he's now back and ready to show people around. He leads them to the kitchen, where they briefly talk about checking out the booties of some women. However, Wayne quickly moves on and tells them that he has more of the house to show them.
As they move upstairs, Wayne shows off his glass floor, from which people can see their reflections. He boasts about his connections and offers some morphine to one of his guests. He wants people to understand and respect him, or they might have to face deadly consequences. Wayne then takes them to a room where there are a few people gagged and tied up against the wall. It's a spooky sight, and even though Wayne is primarily focused on his money, he also makes it clear that he's not someone to mess with.
Throughout the song, Lil Wayne's focus is on showing people around his impressive mansion. However, he also makes it clear that he's got connections, money, and power. He doesn't want anyone to mess with him or his belongings.
