Put On
Lil Wayne ft kanye west Lyrics

I put on, I put on, I put on, I put on
I am proud of my accomplishments and I am constantly striving to improve.

I put on for my city, on, on for my city
I represent and support my hometown, and I am dedicated to its success.

When they see me off in traffic, they say "Jeezy on some other shit" (ayy)
People are amazed by my success and unconventional approach to life.

Send them pussy niggas runnin' straight back to the dealership (haha)
My enemies fear me and they retreat when I am around.

Me, I'm in my spaceship, that's right, I work for NASA
I am at the top of my game, and everything I do is out of this world.

This FNH is not a fraud, call that bitch my bodyguard (yeah) Call that bitch your bodyguard? Yeah, that's my bodyguard (ayy)
I have a powerful firearm and I am not afraid to use it, and I trust the person I am with to protect me.

Wear a lot of jewelry, Young don't do security (nah)
I prefer to flaunt my wealth and take risks, instead of relying on security guards for protection.

What's whiter than a napkin, harder than a dinner plate?
I am referring to cocaine, which is pure white and harder than anything on a dinner plate.

If you want it, come and get it, you know I stay super straight
I am unafraid of anyone who wants to take me on, and I will defend myself and my possessions.

Ran up in my spots and now I'm workin' out the Super 8 (ayy) Know you niggas hungry, come and get a super plate Y'all sing happy birthday, yeah, I got that super cake Hundred karat bracelet, I use it like some super bait
I am referring to living in a low-budget motel because my house was robbed, and now I offer those who are in need food and celebration. I also flaunt my jewelry as bait to attract attention.

Put on (east side), put on (south side) Put on (west side), put on, let's go
I am unifying every part of my city and bringing everyone together to celebrate our success.

Hat back, top back, ain't nothin' but a young thug (young thug) HKs, AK's, I need to join a gun club (haha)
I am a reckless individual who likes to show off and boast about my weaponry, and I may even join a gun club for further access to firearms.

Big wheels, big straps, you know I like it super sized (yeah) Passenger's a red-bone, her weave look like some curly fries (ayy) Inside's fish sticks, outside tartar sauce Pocket full of celery, imagine what she tellin' me (yeah)
I am describing my extravagant lifestyle, including my preference for large vehicles and weapons, and the appearance of the people who ride with me. I also have an abundance of fast food and cash on hand.

Blowin' on asparagus, the realest shit I ever smoked Ridin' to that Trap or Die, the realest shit I ever wrote They know I got that broccoli (broccoli), so I keep that Glock on me Don't get caught without one (nah), comin' from where I'm from
I am referring to smoking marijuana and the music I have created, which is my most honest and raw expression. I also carry a firearm for protection, as violence is common where I come from.

Call me Jeezy Hamilton, flyin' down Campbellton (yeah) So fresh, so clean, on my way to Charlene
I compare myself to Alexander Hamilton, as I believe I am a revolutionary figure in my community. I also mention streets in my city and the people I am on my way to meet.

I feel like it's still niggas that owe me checks I feel like it's still bitches that owe me sex I feel like this but niggas don't know he's stress I lost the only girl in the world that know me best
I am expressing my frustrations with those who owe me money or sexual favors. I also feel misunderstood by my peers and have lost someone who knew me intimately.

I got the money and the fame, man, that don't mean shit I got the Jesus on a chain, man, that don't mean shit 'Cause when the Jesus pieces can't bring me peace Yo, I need just at least, uh, one of Russell's nieces
I have accumulated material wealth and fame, but I still feel empty and seek a deeper sense of peace and fulfillment. I also mention wanting to be with a woman from a wealthy and influential family.

On, I let my nightmares go I put on everybody that I knew from the 'Go I know hoes that was frontin' when they knew he was broke They say, "Damn, Yeezy, Yeezy, you don't know us no more You got that big fame, homie, and you just changed on me"
I release my fears and anxieties and show love and appreciation to everyone I have known since the beginning. I am also aware that some people only pretended to be friends with me when I had nothing, and now they are resentful of my success.

You can ask big homie, man, the top so lonely I ain't lyin', so lonely, I ain't lyin'
Despite my success, I still feel isolated and lonely at the top, and even my closest associates can attest to that.

Let me see what we have tonight (what we have tonight) I'm high as a satellite (satellite) I see those flashin' lights (flashin' lights) 'Cause every night, every night, I put on 'Cause every night, every night
I am enjoying myself and the party scene, as I am high and surrounded by flashing lights. I mention that every night, I put on a performance and give it my all.
