Renegade
Lil Wayne (Feat. Fabolous) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh, you think I give a fuck about
What these niggas say man
They even talked about Jesus

I ain't mad at when it rain, 'cause I know the sun is somewhere shinin'
Sorta like some clear diamonds
I hardly see my moms, but she know her son is somewhere grindin'
Some where rhymin', or somewhere climbin'

Out of a pottable 760, inclasable very sticky
Wit a handgun, to send these cowards to Heaven quickly
I ain't pussy, so I won't allow you to ever dick me
I know these grease balls, wonder how could they ever stick me

But I move, like the President through town
Wit stones the size of earrings, in my Presidential crown
I put hollows from the Desert into clowns, 'cause the cemetary
Is where most of the dudes, that are hesitant are found

So I take the time, of whatever the bench throws
The 4BM put down, in a seventy-two inch hole
Mean while getting adapted, to the fame has be hectic
But I'm fucking like I'm tryna take down Chamberlain's record

And the girls more than like you, when you running around
Doing world tours like Michael, but girl's sure don't like you
You going on like thirty-six, flowin' on some berry mix
The little money you get, you blowing on them dirty chicks

Tryna look young, so you throwing on the jersey quick
I'm on my second V-12, you going on ya thirty-six
You can look at this rider, and see I'm on the come-up
'Cause I pass the hitch-hikers, like I don't see 'em with they thumb up

I just turn the system up and keep boppin'
I never get, where I'm tryna go, if a nigga keep stoppin'
And I tell the cops, this joint is for protection
Don't they see when I come through

How these people point in my direction
That's why I poke out my jeans
Like my joint with a erection
Till I'm in a joint made for correction
And right now, the way rapper business spread
It wouldn't even surprise me
If one of these rappers is a Fed, nigga

Since I'm in the position to get rich, I'ma get it
Whether it come from rapping on blocks, flippin' and pitchin'
And fuck the stove, and the kitchen where I cook and prepare it
Nigga you know and don't try to act like the truth ain't apparent

I'm on a mission to get richer, it's as simple as that
I make it obvious, when I pick up a pencil and rap
Like a .40 Cal, spittin' on instrumentals I clap
And these verses, are like the hollow point I sent through yo back

I get you murdered if I think you a rat
'Cause if you don't show loyalty
Then that show me where ya principles at
And you don't know how much I been through, in fact

I never did like you, I ain't even gon' pretend wit you cats
And I'm the nicest, I ain't gotta say it twice and repeat it
I'm a lyrical genius, I never been beated, defeated
I'ma draw my weapon and squeeze it, you better believe it

Leave you parapaligic, I demand respect and I mean it
My Desert's the meanest, you probably dead if you seen it
Or sprawled out somewhere sick, you get red on the cement
And I blow off ya head for no reason and just when I'm leavin'
You don't know me ya owe me homie
But the spread make us even, blow

And the bad part about it is man
I'm only twenty years old man
And I'm just havin' fun
Man I ain't even tryin' man

Desert Storm's youngest and in charge man
Paul Cain, man
Yo Fab man, you ain't even gotta go hard man
I got these niggas man

Clue, holla at cha boy, Skatin' Dolla
Duro, it's our year man
Desert Storm, we gon' kill niggas man




You already know what it is it's a ho'cide man
Stop, "Street Dreamin"

Overall Meaning

He continues to drop lines throughout that speak to his devotion to his work and his dedication to success. He is clear about his priorities in life and transparent in his approach towards his craft. Wayne shows pride in his possessions, including his car, and the lyrics suggest that he will do whatever it takes to maintain his comfortable lifestyle. He also emphasizes staying true to his roots, refusing to "act like the truth ain't apparent" and make efforts to maintain his authenticity.

The song is a vibrant and energetic expression of what it takes to be successful as a rapper in today's music industry.


Line by Line Meaning

Uh, you think I give a fuck about What these niggas say man They even talked about Jesus
I don't care about what other people say, even if they talk about Jesus. Their criticism doesn't affect me.


I ain't mad at when it rain, 'cause I know the sun is somewhere shinin' Sorta like some clear diamonds I hardly see my moms, but she know her son is somewhere grindin' Some where rhymin', or somewhere climbin'
I don't get upset when things go wrong because I know good things will come eventually. My mom doesn't see me much, but she knows I'm working hard somewhere, either writing rhymes or improving myself in some way.


Out of a pottable 760, inclasable very sticky Wit a handgun, to send these cowards to Heaven quickly I ain't pussy, so I won't allow you to ever dick me I know these grease balls, wonder how could they ever stick me
I carry a powerful gun with me to protect myself from anyone who might try to harm me. I refuse to let anyone take advantage of me or make me look weak, and even my enemies know that it's impossible to bring me down.


But I move, like the President through town Wit stones the size of earrings, in my Presidential crown I put hollows from the Desert into clowns, 'cause the cometary Is where most of the dudes, that are hesitant are found
I move confidently like the President does, with flashy, expensive jewelry. I'm not afraid to shoot at anyone who tries to cross me because I know that most people who are unsure or hesitant are found in the cemetery.


So I take the time, of whatever the bench throws The 4BM put down, in a seventy-two inch hole Mean while getting adapted, to the fame has be hectic But I'm fucking like I'm tryna take down Chamberlain's record
I take advantage of whatever opportunities come my way and strive to succeed, even as fame brings complexity to my life. I'm also pursuing relationships with women with the same level of intensity as Wilt Chamberlain pursued his basketball records.


And the girls more than like you, when you running around Doing world tours like Michael, but girl's sure don't like you You going on like thirty-six, flowin' on some berry mix The little money you get, you blowing on them dirty chicks
Women are more attracted to me now that I'm on world tours like Michael Jackson was, but they're not interested in lesser-known guys. Meanwhile, you're still trying to act cool by drinking the popular mixed drink, but your money is being spent on low-quality women.


Tryna look young, so you throwing on the jersey quick I'm on my second V-12, you going on ya thirty-six You can look at this rider, and see I'm on the come-up 'Cause I pass the hitch-hikers, like I don't see 'em with they thumb up
You're trying to act young by wearing jerseys, but I'm driving a second luxurious V-12 engine car, showing that I'm on the rise. I'm so focused on my success that I don't even notice begging hitchhikers along the road.


I just turn the system up and keep boppin' I never get, where I'm tryna go, if a nigga keep stoppin' And I tell the cops, this joint is for protection Don't they see when I come through How these people point in my direction
I keep the music loud and keep going, never letting anyone stop me from reaching my destination. I let the police know that I carry a gun for protection and people often recognize me as they point me out to others.


That's why I poke out my jeans Like my joint with a erection Till I'm in a joint made for correction And right now, the way rapper bi'ness spread It wouldn't even surprise me If one of these rappers is a Fed, nigga
I show off my gun in my pants like it's a hard-on and I'll continue to do so until I end up in prison. The rap industry has become so corrupted that it wouldn't surprise me if some of these rappers are actually undercover police officers.


Since I'm in the position to get rich, I'ma get it Whether it come from rapping on blocks, flippin' and pitchin' And fuck the stove, and the kitchen where I cook and prepare it Nigga you know and don't try to act like the truth ain't apparent
I'm going to make money no matter what it takes, whether it be drug dealing or successful rap career. I don't care about honest work like cooking in the kitchen for a living as long as I can get rich.


I'm on a mission to get richer, it's as simple as that I make it obvious, when I pick up a pencil and rap Like a .40 Cal, spittin' on instrumentals I clap And these verses, are like the hollow point I sent through yo back
My sole objective is to increase my wealth, and I make that clear every time I grab a pen to rap. My verses are as powerful and damaging as a bullet fired from a gun.


I get you murdered if I think you a rat 'Cause if you don't show loyalty Then that show me where ya principles at And you don't know how much I been through, in fact
If I suspect that you're a snitch, I'll have you killed. If you're disloyal, it shows me where your values lie. You don't know how much hardship I've faced in my life.


I never did like you, I ain't even gon' pretend wit you cats And I'm the nicest, I ain't gotta say it twice and repeat it I'm a lyrical genius, I never been beated, defeated I'ma draw my weapon and squeeze it, you better believe it
I never liked you and I won't pretend to. I'm confident in my abilities and don't need to repeat it. I'm unbeatable when it comes to lyrics and I'm willing to use my gun to defend my position.


Leave you parapaligic, I demand respect and I mean it My Desert's the meanest, you probably dead if you seen it Or spored out somewhere sick, you get red on the cement And I blow off ya head for no reason and just when I'm leavin' You don't know me ya owe me homie But the spread make us even, blow
I'll leave you paralyzed and I expect to be respected. My gun is incredibly dangerous and you'd be dead if you saw it. If you cross me, I'll shoot you in public and leave you bleeding on the ground. You may not really know me, but you still owe me, and I'm willing to use violence to even the score.


And the bad part about it is man I'm only twenty years old man And I'm just havin' fun Man I ain't even tryin' man
The worst part is, I'm just a 20-year-old kid having fun, and yet I'm still involved in such a dangerous lifestyle.


Desert Storm's youngest and in charge man Paul Cain, man Yo Fab man, you ain't even gotta go hard man I got these niggas man Clue, holla at cha boy, Skatin' Dolla Duro, it's our year man Desert Storm, we gon' kill niggas man You already know what it is it's a ho'cide man Stop, "Street Dreamin"
I'm the youngest leader of Desert Storm and I'm in charge. Fabolous doesn't have to work so hard because I'll handle everything. DJ Clue needs to contact me, and it's our year to take over and dominate. You already know what it is - we're killing it in the rap game and leaving everyone else in our dust.

@mbamunamuhuka9904

I'm a motherf**in g
Come from under the smotherin of the slum
I'm bundlin up a ton, i'm pumpin it by that bump in the road
I'll leave you slumped in the road, if ever pumpin by my bump in the road
Come for no drama, i'm only tryna
Get up my dollars, my partners is screamin "sqad up"
I'm tryna get my squad up, holla at ya boy
I move so poised on old school boys
I'm a mack mami k** that noise
I got crack, chronic in that boy
I ain't just jumped off the porch, i been that boy
Fee- i'm a win that, boy
Don't even know where to begin that story about your woadie
I'm younger than kobe, vet like rob horry
I made it pop bubbly, your buddy is gettin chubbier than NORE
Honey say her hubby gettin boring
So honey be by money when you snoring
Stuff her from her gummies to her tummy to her ov'ries
It's over man, bet you don't know her man
Like the man from that hollygrove land that'll body yo man
My shotty fo cram hollow grams to yo noggo man
Head shot you mind boggled, man
I am the throwback young'n, about to bring it back to lotto's, fam
And bet i sh** with multiple colored symbols
All of the sh** i been thru, cause me to have my guards up over the god's mental
Raw deep dark top will offend you
500 confidential, a mark that the spark has been rekindled
Good morning i'm Tune, shorty the dude
Gucci border my shoes, hoochie all in my groove
Damn, wayne dookie hard on you fools, you gotta smell me
East landlord, sh** go down you gotta tell me


Gangsta n***a, i ain't ya n***a
Nineteen, got game like an ancient n***a
Wayne came to paint your kitchen, drape your floors
Cover your ceiling, rape your whore
Smother your children, take your feelings, take your core
sh**, if this was the cell block i'd take your store
If this was the block i'd be moving a eighth or more
But i soar thru the block in that grape azure
I see hate galore
But i straight ignore
Because my cake is more
Peep how your date adore
Probly skate with yours
Take her straight indoors
Clean face, make her taste my pores
Give it to her till her waist is sore
Shake the boy
Go up in your lady raw, make your lady raw
And if she's as late as yours
I got snakes in my yard but i stay off the lawn
If a hater inform, take his head and his arm
Got the lead in my palm, infrared on the dome
Of the smith & wes
I aim at ya chest
I bang with the best
I hang with the SQ k**as
n***as is gangsta to d**h
That's louis v from the ankle to neck
I move a v thru the block in the jects
No top, no shirt, people be like, "pac in the jects!!"
I don't stop in the jects
I got shop in the jects
Who knows? twelve hundred for two o's
Crew show, y'all hidin up
And when my crew show up, y'all sqadin up

LETRA DE RENEGADES

[Verso 1: Kidd Kidd]
Conoces al chico de las calles damb, respétame y esperame, empaco ese calor
Especialmente si me amenazas,
tengo niggas que están listos para la fe, que te golpearán la cabeza en las calles
Hombre, soy conocido para convertir los niggas en negrilla en los niggas ho
bebido más licor de edad Niggas que se pueden ver en las esquinas
Mike y yo el tipo que se puede ver en las esquinas
por la noche, tomamos el vuelo, nos ver en las esquinas
la gente estar en nosotros, y decir contenedores abiertos
15 spppen
?
Gran calor en la palma de mi mano
Toca mi queso, estoy fuera de tu mano
Cuando bief, mis niggas ofrecen una mano, viajo
solo, porque estoy fuera del Xan
?


[Verso 2: Lil Wayne]
Soy un hijo de puta
Ven de debajo de la asfixia de los barrios marginales
Estoy abrigado una tonelada, lo estoy bombeando por ese bache en el camino
Te dejaré desplomado en el camino, si alguna vez bombeando por mi bache adentro el camino
Ven sin drama, solo estoy tratando de
levantar mis dólares, mis socios están gritando "cuadrad arriba"
. Estoy tratando de levantar mi escuadrón, hola chico.
Me muevo tan preparado para los chicos de la vieja escuela
. mack mami mata ese ruido
tengo crack, crónico en ese chico
no solo salté del porche, fui ese chico
Fee- soy una victoria, chico
ni siquiera sé por dónde empezar esa historia sobre tu woadie
Soy más joven que Kobe, veterinario como Rob Horry,
lo hice estallar burbujeantetu amigo se está volviendo más gordito que NORE
Cariño, dice que su esposo se está volviendo aburrido
Así que cariño, sé por dinero cuando
roncas Métela desde sus gomitas hasta su barriga y sus ov'ries
Se acabó hombre, apuesto a que no conoces a su hombre
Como el hombre de esa tierra de hollygrove que va a cuerpo yo, hombre,
mi oportunidad para abarrotar gramos huecos para yo, noggo, hombre
. Disparo en la cabeza,
te quedaste atónito , hombre . Soy el joven de retroceso, a punto de traerlo de vuelta a la lotería, familia.
Y apuesto a que me cago con varios símbolos de colores.
Toda la mierda que he estado. a través, hazme tener mis guardias sobre la
parte superior oscura profunda y profunda mental del dios te ofenderá
500 confidencial, una marca de que la chispa se ha reavivado
Buenos días, soy Tune, enano el tipo
Gucci bordea mis zapatos, hoochie todo en mi ranura
Maldita sea, Wayne dookie es duro con ustedes, tontos, tienen que olerme Propietario del
este, mierda, tienes que decirme
Gangsta nigga, no soy tú nigga
Diecinueve, tengo un juego como un viejo nigga
Wayne vino a pintar tu cocina, cubrir tus pisos
Cubre tu techo, viola a tu puta
Ahoga a tus hijos, toma tus sentimientos, toma tu núcleo
Mierda, si este fuera el bloque de celdas, tomaría tu tienda
Si este fuera el bloque, me movería un octavo o más
Pero me elevo el bloque en ese azul uva
Veo odio en abundancia
Pero directamente ignoro
Porque mi pastel es más
Peep cómo tu cita adora
Probly patina con el tuyo
Llévala directamente al interior
Limpia la cara, haz que pruebe mis poros
Dáselo hasta que le duela la cintura
Sacude al chico
Sube con tu dama cruda, haz rugir a tu dama
Y si llega tan tarde como la tuya
Tengo serpientes en mi jardín pero me quedo fuera del césped
Si un enemigo informa, toma su cabeza y su brazo
Tengo el plomo en mi palma, infrarrojos en la cúpula
Del smith & wes Apunto
a tu pecho
Golpeo con lo mejor
Me cuelgo con el SQ killas
Niggas es gangsta hasta la muerte
Eso es louis v del tobillo al cuello
Me muevo av a través del bloque en los jects
Sin camiseta, sin camisa, la gente dice, "¡¡pac en los jects !!"
No me detengo en los objetos
que tengo comprar en los objetos
¿Quién sabe? mil doscientos para el
espectáculo de la tripulación de dos o , todos se esconden
Y cuando mi equipo aparece, todos ustedes se unen
