We are not the same, I am a Martian
We are not the same, I am a Martian
Greetings from Planet Weezy
We will begin transmission in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
And if you feel like you're the best
Go 'head and do the Weezy-We, and
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
We are not the same, I am a Martian
And I'm hotter than summer rain like Carl Thomas
Lock, load, ready to aim at any target
I could get your brains for a bargain like I bought it from Target
Hip hop is my supermarket
Shopping cart full of fake hip hop artists
I'm starving, sorry, I gotta eat all it
And I'll be back in the morning
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
And if you feel like you're the best
Go 'head and do the Weezy-We, and
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
We are not the same, I am a alien
Like Gonzales, young college
Student, who done just flipped the game like Houston
I'm used to promethazine in two cups, I'm screwed up
And you ain't shit if you ain't never been screwed up
Flow so sick make you wanna throw your food up
Ice water chest, and my wrist like a cool cup
Two twin clippers, I give your ass a crew cut
I get bread like cold cuts, you know what?
Your girl go down fast, come up slow, but I never slow up
Weezy!
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
And if you feel like you're the best
Go 'head and do the Weezy-We, and
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
They don't make 'em like me no more
Matter of fact, they never made it like me before
I'm rare, like Mr. Clean with hair
No brake lights on my car rear
I never had lice and I never had fear
I rap like I done died and gone to heaven, I swear
And yeah, I'm a bear, like black and white hair, so I'm polar
And they can't get on my system 'cause my system is the solar
I am so far from the othars, I meant others
I just eat them for supper, get in my spaceship and hover, hover
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
And if you feel like you're the best
Go 'head and do the Weezy-We, and
Phone home! Weezy
Phone home! Weezy
In Lil Wayne's song "Phone Home," he asserts his uniqueness and sets himself apart from other rappers. He repeats the line "we are not the same, I am a martian" throughout the song, emphasizing his extraterrestrial nature. In the song, he references his success and swag, comparing himself to aliens and invoking sci-fi images with lines like "and I'm hotter than summer rain like Carl Thomas" and "they don't make em like me no more, matter fact they never made em like me before."
The chorus of the song urges listeners to "phone home" to Lil Wayne if they believe they are the best. He encourages them to do the "Weezy wee," a dance move made famous by his music video for the song "Lollipop." The verses are full of clever wordplay and pop culture references as Lil Wayne raps about his skills as a rapper and his love of lean (a popular drug cocktail containing codeine and soda). He claims that hip hop is his supermarket and he's got a shopping cart full of fake hip hop artists.
Overall, "Phone Home" is a declaration of Lil Wayne's unique talent and style. He positions himself as an otherworldly, futuristic figure who is destined to dominate the rap game. The song's catchy chorus and playful lyrics make it a favorite among Lil Wayne fans.
