Let's get high as we wanna, let's go and burn up a forest
Girl there’s other precautions, get the car it’s inside it
Let's put some ice on your watch and designer on your body
Let's order bitches and bottles, bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, let's order bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, let's get it started
I’m turned up till my knob broke say turn down I say nah ho
My neck rocking like Balboa, my watch official, it's uncalled for
In the same regions on all floors, I got six sluts on all fo'
They french kiss and say bonjour I got my own shine but I want yours
I’m stupid rich, got stupid bitches, you stupid thick, in Louboutin'
Don’t like me, fuck you again, wanna fight me well come do it then
Right hand to God on everything I see the hearts of men and they bear lame
I won’t entertain no punk shit, they talk shit and I run it
Boy you tryin’ to get what I been here, headed down with like ten here
I’m to answer this unreal let’s say one album and like ten mill
Plus my swag is stupid low IQ gone, heard nigga bailin’ all try to gone
But when you ballin’ like I do, you know something nigga, they don’t like you
Let's get it started, let's go dumb and retarded
Let's get high as we wanna, let's go and burn up a forest
Girl there’s other precautions, get the car it’s inside it
Let's put in ice on your watch and designer on your body
Let's order bitches and bottles, bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, let's order bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, bitches and bottles

Sittin' on like a hundred mil, I treat that shit like whoopie cushion
Ballin' on them fuck niggas, they on the bench I bench press em’
They hating, from the sidelines, they pissed off piss test em’

All them niggas hatin' fuck ya in ya pussy
The best things in life are free, free my nigga Boosie, gone
Let's get it started, let's go dumb and retarded
Let's get high as we wanna, let's go and burn up a forest

In Lil Wayne's song "Started," he starts by spitting charismatic bars that set the tone for the celebratory energy the song has. He encourages listeners to let loose and indulge in the vices of life with him, singing, "Let's get high as we wanna, let's go and burn up a forest." He then goes on to talk about ordering "bitches and bottles" repeatedly, which seems to mean indulgence in material possessions like expensive designer clothes and luxury cars, as well as sexual partners.
The second verse is Lil Wayne's showpiece, in which he brags about his wealth, success, and how much he enjoys all the spoils that come with it. He even tells haters to "fuck ya in ya pussy," and then oddly enough, mentions his support for rapper Lil Boosie, who was incarcerated at the time. He continues the theme of living extravagantly and without consequence, as he is married to this lifestyle.
The chorus of "Started" is infectious, repeating the lines "Let's order bitches and bottles" four times in a row, and getting listeners hyped for the party that he is facilitating through the song. The song is an ode to living in the lap of luxury and not feeling bad about it.
