What
Aye you niggas is not ready
But we back wit it doe
One way intersection
You got a job, you got a family, then keep that blessing
You poppin' pills, you doing drugs, using all depressants
I told these niggas be correct, they wanna be professions
It's hard to wake up every day and look at my reflection
Can we just reverse back in time? I need a recollection
This shit ain't back to future, nigga livin' in the present
Every time they call my phone, I say there's no reception
Think I'm stuck up in my ways, but damn that's my perception
Can't go back to who I was, that's my only exception
Gotta cato all my siblings, I'm over protective
Get a house up in the hills, man that's a dream investment
Society expects the money, don't you be expressive
You need to channel all your anger, so don't be aggressive
Go sit down and smoke a blunt to ease out all congestion
I know you ain't gonna listen to me, harder to reject it
Looking at her, do I love her, this that misconception
I tell her this a one way path, a one way intersection
If you leave up out the door, just stay in that direction
You telling lies, you think I'm dumb, I'm losin' all affection
My boys are swimming in that water, now we resurrected
Gotta thank God every day, I love my damn complexion
Puttin' facts all on this pape, no speaking in elections
My mama fond about my ex, she told me use protection
My pops he told me I was gifted from a new dimension
But I'm still fucked up in my mind, they always tryna question
Feel like a demon in my body, cause I'm too possessive
My destiny is really glowin', man I'm so expensive
I got an A in all my classes, I was comprehensive
Now they looking at me now, they say I'm so impressive
I knock the walls just like I'm Floyd, not talkin no progressive
My team we need a fuckin trophy, so let's take some chances
Throw this money in the air, now we doin dances
This pain be stuck up in my head, goin to advance it
Don't need no diamonds on my neck, my drip you always glancin'
Goon squad comin deep, pullin' and we chantin'
Men this life is really hard, it taught me aw
But this is a one way intersection, coming from detention
Man I promise if you lost, you can't come in my section
I'm teachin' all you niggas now, I need a re-election
The lyrics to M.I.K.E. Push's song "Intersection" delve into a range of personal and societal issues while expressing the artist's unique perspective.
In the first verse, the lyrics touch upon the contrast between living a responsible life (having a job and a family) versus succumbing to destructive behaviors (popping pills and using drugs). The artist acknowledges the difficulty of discussing these issues but emphasizes the importance of addressing them. The lyrics also highlight the desire to reflect on past mistakes and the frustration of being unable to change the present. The line "Every time they call my phone, I say there's no reception" suggests a desire to disconnect from negative influences.
The following verse delves into societal expectations and the pressure to conform to certain ideals.

The artist also expresses a longing for personal success and the aspiration to own a house in the hills, while acknowledging the emphasis society places on wealth. The line "You need to channel all your anger, so don't be aggressive" suggests the artist's belief in finding healthy outlets for negative emotions.

The lyrics touch upon the pain of lies, loss of affection, and the importance of gratitude and self-acceptance.
The final verse features a mix of personal accomplishments and challenges, such as excelling academically and receiving admiration from others. The artist's determination to continue moving forward, likened to the intensity of a boxer like Floyd Mayweather, is highlighted. The lyrics also express the desire for success and recognition as a collective unit, with the "goon squad comin' deep." The artist acknowledges the hardships of life but asserts that they have learned and emerged stronger from them. The line "But this is a one way intersection, coming from detention" suggests that despite past mistakes or setbacks, personal growth and learning have taken place, creating a new path forward.
